I’m sad to be leaving, Nigeria is so much fun – Outgoing British Commissioner, Laing

Outgoing British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Wendy Laing, has said that she is sad to be leaving Nigeria. She said she had a fabulous time in the country and would love to return.

Laing spoke yesterday, April 5, during a farewell visit to President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House, Abuja, after a four-and-a half years tour of duty.

Laing said, “I’m sad to be leaving. Nigeria is so much fun, I had a fabulous time here, and I will be back. I love the dance, music and culture.

“It has been good to experience Nigeria. I have been to over 20 States, and I have told my successor to also do the same. I will be back and still travel wider.”

She also congratulated President Buhari for a very successful eight years in office, adding that he had done very well to hold the country together.
