President Bola Tinubu is set to welcome Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a state visit at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Sunday. According to a statement by Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Mr. Bayo Onanuga, both leaders will exchange signed Memoranda of Understanding to enhance collaboration in critical sectors.
Modi’s visit marks the first by an Indian prime minister to Nigeria since Dr. Manmohan Singh’s state visit in 2007, during which the two nations established a strategic partnership. The upcoming discussions aim to further strengthen the ties between Nigeria and India.
Modi is scheduled to arrive in Nigeria on Saturday, with bilateral talks planned for Sunday.
