Again, Blinken meets Tuggar, pledges stronger U.S., Nigeria ties

This is the second meeting of the two government officials this year. Blinken had earlier in January held bilateral talks in Abuja during the former’s visit to Nigeria and meeting with President Bola Tinubu .

Deputy Secretary, Kurt Campbell, and Tuggar have made progress on implementing mutual economic, governance and security priorities through the April 29-30 U.S.-Nigeria Binational Commission in Abuja, the 16th U.S.-Africa Business Summit from May 6-9 in Dallas, Texas, and Foreign Minister Tuggar’s May 14-17 visit to Washington.

Diaspora Nigerians in the United States contribute at least $20 billion annually in remittances to Nigeria, stimulating local economies and fostering entrepreneurial pursuits. An example is Nigeria’s positioning to become the first African nation to join the Global Cross-Border Data Privacy Rules Forum, representing another sign of Nigeria’s readiness to embrace digital business on a global scale.

• Reinforcing messages and intentions from the 2022 U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit, State’s Office of Intellectual Property Enforcement continued its Creative Industries Ecosystem Roundtable Series in November 2023 in Lagos. These initiatives reflect the commitment of the United States to deepen ties with Nigeria in support of inclusive economic growth and shared prosperity.Before flagging, please keep in mind that Disqus does not moderate communities.
