Excellency,
On the occasion of the 62nd Anniversary of the Independence Day of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, on behalf of the Government of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic and on my own behalf. I have a great pleasure to convey my sincere congratulations and best wishes to Your Excellency and through Your Excellency to the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The Lao People’s Democratic Republic and the Federal Republic of Nigeria have enjoyed friendly and good cooperation since the Establishment of Diplomatic Relations in 1999. I do believe that the friendly relations and good cooperation between our two countries will be developed in the year to come for mutual benefits of our two peoples.
May I take this opportunity to wish Your Excellency good health, well-being and greater success in your noble task and the Nigerian people continued progress and prosperity.
Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.
