Posted on by All Africa

[State Department] Washington, DC -SECRETARY POMPEO:  Well, good morning, everyone.  It's my pleasure to welcome you, Mr. Minister, and your entire Nigerian delegation to Washington, DC.  The foreign minister and I just completed a very productive conversation on how to continue to strengthen the economic and security ties between our two nations.  This is a real priority for us in the Trump administration in Africa, because Nigeria is Africa's most populous democracy and its largest economy.
