U.S. President Donald Trump is scheduled to receive his Nigerian counterpart, President Muhammadu Buhari, on April 30, a White House statement revealed yesterday

According to the statement, the two leaders are expected to discuss issues on economic growth, security and strengthening democracy.

White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders acknowledged that President Trump anticipates discussions on improving strategic partnerships and advancing shared priorities.

The meeting comes weeks after Rex Tillerson, Ex U.S. secretary of state, visited Nigeria and other African countries in March, following Trump’s alleged controversial comment on African countries in which he referred to them as “shitholes”, a comment he has since denied.
