President Bola Tinubu on Thursday met with the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Keir Starmer, reiterating Nigeria’s commitment to deepening the diplomatic ties between the two countries.
Tinubu, who was welcomed to Downing Street by Starmer, said the entire world was challenged, adding that Nigeria and the United Kingdom must build on their longstanding relationship by strengthening trade ties and expanding mutually beneficial economic cooperation.
“What we are facing is not a small challenge. Currently, the entire world is challenged. Nigeria is not immune, so is Britain not immune,” he said.
The President said he was concerned about Nigeria’s economy and the well-being of its citizens, as well as how Africa’s most populous nation and the UK could collaborate.
