The president of the United States, Joe Biden has vowed to support President Bola Tinubu on economic growth and advanced security, among other critical aspects of his government.
While congratulating Tinubu on his Monday inauguration as Nigeria’s 16th president, Biden made the vow in a statement.
Tinubu and the Vice President, Kashim Shettima were sworn in respectively by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Kayode Ariwoola at the Eagle Square in Abuja earlier today.
The US President reaffirmed that his government is ready to work together with Tinubu “to strengthen ties between the United States and Nigeria.”
Biden said, “On behalf of the people of the United States, I send warm wishes to the government and people of Nigeria as they inaugurate a new President. I look forward to continuing this work with President Tinubu to support economic growth, advance security, and promote respect for human rights.
“As Africa’s largest democracy and economy, Nigeria’s success is the world’s success. Elected leaders owe it to their people to show that democracy can deliver for their needs.
