The Muslim World League has launched an initiative aimed at countering extremist discourse in West Africa, with Muslim and Christian leaders from across the region signing a series of cooperation agreements at an international conference in Abuja.

The League unveiled the initiative at a conference titled "Diversity and Social Peace: A Partnership for a Promising Future," held under the patronage of Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The gathering brought together Muslim and Christian religious leaders alongside government officials and civil society representatives.
