Tinubu’s UK Visit Is Historic – Prime Minister

Bola Tinubu

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently received President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at Downing Street. This happened as both countries sealed a £70 million steel deal to support the refurbishment of two major ports in Lagos.

Describing BAT’s visit as historic, he noted that it is the first state visit by a West African leader to the UK in 37 years.

Tinubu added that discussions with the British Prime Minister covered trade, economic cooperation, terrorism, and climate change.

BBC said that the agreement will see British Steel supply 120,000 tonnes of steel for the upgrade of the Lagos Port Complex and TinCan Island Port Complex, forming part of a wider £746 million redevelopment arrangement backed by the United Kingdom.

WOW.
