According All Africa, “The communiqué issued at the end of the XI session of the joint commission between Nigeria and Cameroon held in Yaounde, Cameroon, the agreements were necessary in order to strengthen the ongoing cooperation between the two sisterly countries and reinforce the platform of the joint commission between the two countries.”
Dr. Nurudeen Muhammed, minister of foreign affairs of Nigeria and Prof. Pierre Moukoko Mbonjo, minister of external relations of Cameroon, led the meeting.
In order to execute the various agreements, the leaders have decided to create a committee of top senior officials from both countries to implement the revised and existing agreements.
