Mr. Vice President,

1.  India warmly welcomes the delegation of Nigeria for the adoption of the report of the Working Group on its 4th cycle of the Universal Periodic Review held on 23 January 2024.

2.  The review saw substantive and constructive participation with 132 delegations taking the floor and making a total of 346 recommendations. We appreciate the constructive engagement of the delegation of Nigeria during the entire review, which reflects the strong commitment they attach to the UPR process.

3.  We appreciate that as many as 279 recommendations have been accepted by Nigeria, including all three recommendations made by us.

4.  While recommending the adoption of their UPR report, we congratulate the delegation of Nigeria on a successful review and wish them success in their efforts for implementing the accepted recommendations.

I thank you.
