The statement highlighted that the engagement underscores Nigeria’s commitment to expanding bilateral relations, attracting foreign investment, and modernising critical infrastructure to drive economic growth.

A key development during the visit is the signing of a £746 million financing agreement between UK Export Finance, the Nigerian Ports Authority, and the Federal Ministry of Finance.
