Tinubu Congratulates US President-elect Trump
On Wednesday, President Bola Tinubu congratulated Donald Trump on his re-election as the 47th President of the United States.
Tinubu expressed his desire to further strengthen the relationship between Nigeria and the U.S. in light of the complex challenges and opportunities facing the world today.
The congratulatory message was issued through a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, and was titled “President Tinubu Congratulates President-elect Trump.”
Tinubu said, “Together, we can foster economic cooperation, promote peace, and address global challenges that affect our citizens.”
According to Tinubu, Trump’s victory is a reflection of the trust and confidence the American people have placed in his leadership.
He also congratulated the U.S. electorate for their dedication to upholding democracy.
“President Tinubu believes that, given President Trump’s experience as the 45th President of the United States from 2017 to 2021, his return to the White House as the 47th President will usher in an era of earnest, beneficial, and reciprocal economic and development partnerships between Africa and the United States,” Onanuga noted.
Tinubu also recognized the United States’ influence, power, and role in shaping global events, expressing confidence that President Trump will work to bring the world closer to peace and prosperity.

On Monday, a meeting of EU foreign ministers reportedly approved a 16th package of sanctions against Russia while saying a swift casefire that favors Moscow will not be accepted. However, Hungary, whose leader Viktor Orban has remained close to Russian President Vladimir Putin and has persistently complicated EU efforts to support Ukraine, said it will not back further sanctions. The country’s Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto also said his country will not agree to a boost in EU military aid as US President Donald Trump continues his push to force Ukraine to agree to a peace deal with Russia. US officials met their Russian counterparts last week, while Trump and Zelenskyy have embarked on a bitter spat via the media, with the US leader accusing Kyiv of starting the war and questioning the Ukrainian president’s legitimacy. Trump’s peace plan, which appears designed to illustrate his self-appointed role as a global dealmaker, faces resistance on both sides. Russia said on Monday that the quick end to the war is “unacceptable”. A ceasefire without a long-term settlement “is the path to a swift resumption of fighting and a resumption of the conflict with even more serious consequences, including consequences for Russian-US relations,” Moscow’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said, according to the state-run RIA Novosti news agency. Meanwhile, Ukraine signalled on Sunday that a contentious proposal that would hand Washington $500bn worth of profits from Ukrainian rare minerals has now been taken off the table, and that talks on a different deal are progressing. Zelenskyy also told a forum in Kyiv that he would resign his post if that meant peace was achieved.
