Nigeria’s President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has arrived in Turkey for an official state visit aimed at deepening diplomatic, economic, and strategic relations between both countries.
The visit is expected to focus on bilateral cooperation in key areas such as trade, investment, defence, energy, infrastructure, and technology. Discussions will also centre on expanding economic partnerships and strengthening existing agreements between Nigeria and Turkey.
President Tinubu is scheduled to engage with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, alongside high-level government officials and business leaders. The meetings are expected to open new opportunities for collaboration, particularly in industrial development and foreign direct investment.
The state visit underscores Nigeria’s renewed push for global partnerships as part of efforts to reposition the economy, attract investors, and enhance international cooperation under Tinubu’s administration.
As diplomatic engagements unfold, observers say the visit could mark a significant step toward reinforcing Nigeria–Turkey relations and advancing mutual economic interests.
