I Look Forward To Working Together,’ UK Prime Minister Sunak Hails Tinubu’s Victory

Rishi Sunak, prime minister of the United Kingdom (UK), has congratulated Bola Tinubu, Nigeria’s president-elect for winning the election.

Both the UK and Nigeria share a longstanding relationship that has withstood the latter’s over-62-year independence from the former.

In a post on Twitter, Sunak said he looks forward to working with Nigeria to grow the two country’s security and trade.

“Congratulations to @officialABAT on his victory in Nigeria,” he tweeted.

“The UK-Nigeria relationship remains strong. I look forward to working together to grow our security and trade ties, opening up opportunities for businesses and creating prosperity in both our countries.”
