According to the governor, Lagos State is willing to talk about common interests for a better future and to fortify diplomatic connections.
Bliken’s acknowledgement of Lagos’ well-earned position as a center for technology and creativity was warmly welcomed by Sanwo-Olu, who stated that the state is happy to serve as a breeding ground for successful innovations.
“Welcoming Secretary of State of the United States, Mr. Anthony Blinken, to Lagos during his transit at the Presidential Wing of Murtala Muhammed International Airport was a pleasure,” he wrote. We are always willing to talk about common interests for a better future and to fortify diplomatic ties.
As we stand proud as a fertile ground for inventive achievement, it was encouraging to hear his recent remarks recognizing Lagos’s well-deserved position as a digital and innovation hotspot.
“Our city is still willing to cultivate foreign alliances that advance our shared goals.”
From January 21 to 26, Blinken will be traveling to Cape Verde, Cote d’Ivoire, Nigeria, and Angola for a six-day trip.
A statement on the official website of the US government states that the trip’s goals are to strengthen ties with the continent and promote potential business collaborations.
Anthony Blinken, the secretary of state of the United States, has stated that the US will work with Nigeria to combat plastic pollution and produce energy.
According to Blinken, the US mission in Nigeria would establish the marine and blue economy in the country and help solve its problems with the environment and the economy.
Blinken made this statement on Wednesday during the opening of the American Corner in the Lekki neighborhood of Lagos State.
