Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says the solidarity of world leaders at the Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral is ennobling and strengthening for countries like Nigeria and the Commonwealth.
Osinbajo’s spokesman, Laolu Akande, in a statement said the vice president spoke with newsmen after attending the State Funeral Service of the late Queen of England at Westminster Abbey, London, UK.
The Commonwealth compress 54 member states from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Pacific.
The vice president said that the coming together of leaders to celebrate the live of late Queen and attend her funeral was a show of solidarity and goodwill by people from around the world.
According to him, it is also a testament to the brotherhood of nations.
Osinbajo said that the event was a historic one that was unlikely to happen, perhaps in another lifetime.
He commended the sheer enormity of all that had happened and the gathering of leaders from everywhere, the good will, the good wishes, and all of that from practically everywhere around the world.
