America’s strongman, Donald Trump, wants to host Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari; and has invited to come visiting on the 30th of April.
\nThe White House announced on Sunday that Trump will discuss issues such as promoting economic growth and fighting terrorism with Buhari.
\n\u201cThe relationship of the United States with Nigeria is deep and strong, and Nigeria\u2019s economic growth, security, and leadership in Africa will advance our mutual prosperity,\u201d the statement said.
\nRecall that Trump approved the sale of 12 high-technology attack planes and equipment worth $600 million to Nigeria last year after the Obama administration halted the sale because of accusations that Nigeria\u2019s air force was bombing civilians.
\nBut the planes and equipment are still been awaited as the Defence Headquarters has not publicly acknowledged receipt.
\nThe scheduled meeting will be the second between the two leaders after a last September meeting on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, during a luncheon Trump held for a select group of African leaders.
