  "summary": "Kebbi State Governor Nasir Idris has joined Nigeria's delegation to the 81st UN General Assembly in New York. According to Punch, the governor aims to attract investment and partnerships for Kebbi State.\n\nThe 81st UN General Assembly has drawn various international leaders, including Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Pezeshkian, as reported by The National Business and The National UAE, plans to address the General Assembly and hold meetings with foreign leaders, expatriates, and experts. Araghchi stated that Iran's goal is to defend its interests and the legitimacy, rights, and interests of the Iranian people on this international platform.\n\nThe Iranian delegation's presence at the UN General Assembly is notable given the ongoing conflict between Iran and the US. According to Egypt Independent, the US has allowed Iran's \"core delegation\" to attend, but with travel restrictions and limitations on certain activities.",
