President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Donald Trump ahead of his re-election as the 47th President of the United States of America.
Tinubu congratulated Trump in a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Information & Strategy, Bayo Onanuga
He said he looks forward to strengthening the ties between Nigeria and the United States amid the complex challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world. 
“Together, we can foster economic cooperation, promote peace, and address global challenges that affect our citizens.”
“Trump’s victory reflects the trust and confidence the American people have placed in his leadership.”
According to Onanuga, 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.
