Strengthening Ties With Under-Engaged Regions
President Tinubu departed Nigeria on June 28 on a foreign mission described as a strategic outreach to strengthen Nigeria’s ties with historically under-engaged regions in the global diplomatic landscape.
His first stop was Saint Lucia, where he embarked on a historic diplomatic visit, engaging with leaders of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS). The visit marked a key moment in Nigeria’s renewed focus on Caribbean diplomacy and South-South cooperation.
