Lagos Office of the Embassy of the Republic of Korea
to the Federal Republic of Nigeria

Consul General Kim met with Principal Officers of University of Lagos Library- Dr. Yetunde Zaid, the University Librarian, Dr. Christopher Okiki, Head Automation Unit and Dr. Halima Egberongbe, Head Readers’ Services.

During the meeting Consul Kim informed them about the upcoming K-Pop Contest organised by the Korean Cultural Centre in Abuja to be held in Lagos on July 13, 2019. He requested the Library Officials to support the event as it marks the beginning of a cultural exchange between Korea and Nigeria through the Embassy and UNILAG.

Consul General Kim presented a globe with ‘East Sea’ and ‘Dokdo Island’ marked on it. He explained that both the East Sea and Dokdo Island belong to Korea not Japan. And that the evidence is clear both geographically and according to international law.

On her response, Dr. Zaid thanked Consul General Kim for the warm invitation and promised that the Library authorities will maintain the already existing cordial relationship with the Office.
