Hello!
Welcome to the Embassy of Israel's website. This is your
access-point for communicating with the Embassy of Israel in Nigeria. This is
also a window to Israel-Nigeria relations.
It is my great honor to represent the State of Israel in the
Federal Republic of Nigeria, humbly and respectfully, for the benefit and
prosperity of both countries. I feel privileged to represent Israel in
indispensable areas such as culture, the arts, the sciences, education and
environment – values that all individuals, everywhere, hold dear – as well as
security, defense, tourism, economy and innovation.
Despite being a global leader in many endeavors, Israel is a
small country approximately the size of Niger State. Israel is the only Jewish
country in the world, with a population of 9 million people of whom Jews
comprise around 80%. However, Israel is also the multiethnic and multicultural
home to many Muslims, Christians, Druze and other minorities.
My mission as the Ambassador, together with my excellent staff
here at the Embassy, is to strengthen and further develop the diplomatic ties
between our countries and their people.
Ambassador Freeman will serve as Israel's ambassador to the Federal
Republic of Nigeria as well as serving as the Permanent Representative of
Israel to ECOWAS.
Before arriving in Nigeria, Ambassador Freeman served as Policy advisor to
Israeli Ministers of Foreign Affairs Lapid, Ashkenazi and Katz. He has also
served in Israel's embassies in the UK and South Africa.
