Senator (Dr) Sharafadeen Alli, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Candidate in Oyo State, has congratulated Ambassador Florence Ajimobi on her appointment as Nigeria’s Governor on the 35-member Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for the 2026–2028 term.
Alli, in a statement on Sunday, described the appointment as a significant diplomatic achievement for Ajimobi, a proud moment for Oyo State and a boost to Nigeria’s role in global nuclear governance.
He said her selection reflected the confidence in her diplomatic experience and capacity to represent Nigeria in discussions on the peaceful use of nuclear science and technology.
“This is not only a personal achievement for Ambassador Ajimobi but also a proud moment for Oyo State and Nigeria.
“Her appointment reflects the confidence reposed in her ability to contribute to critical global discussions on nuclear science and technology,” Alli said.
The APC candidate said Nigeria’s membership of the 35-member IAEA Board provided an opportunity for the country to strengthen its voice in global nuclear governance and promote the peaceful application of nuclear technology.
He said the role would enable Nigeria to advance its interests in healthcare, agriculture, energy, environmental protection and scientific research.
Alli urged Ajimobi to use her wealth of experience to promote policies supporting the development of nuclear science and technology in Nigeria and other developing countries, particularly initiatives aimed at improving access to nuclear medicine, food security and clean energy.
“Ambassador Ajimobi’s appointment comes at a time when the world is seeking safer, cleaner and more sustainable solutions to its energy and development challenges.
“I am confident that she will bring her expertise, integrity and commitment to the board and make Nigeria proud,” he said.
Alli also commended the Federal Government for supporting Nigeria’s representation on the IAEA Board, saying the development demonstrated the country’s growing relevance in international diplomacy.
He wished Ajimobi a successful tenure and urged stakeholders in the state to celebrate the appointment as a reflection of the state’s contribution to national and global development.
