In a statement released on Tuesday, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu’s special adviser on information and strategy, revealed that the two leaders explored opportunities for cooperation in sectors like oil and gas, agriculture, and infrastructure.

Nigeria is in negotiations with Saudi Arabia for a proposed $5 billion bilateral trade facility, which could greatly boost trade between the two nations.

The statement also noted that the Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC) had invested $1.24 billion in 2022 to acquire a 35.43% stake in Nigeria’s Olam Agri, and talks are underway for SALIC to increase its stake. This investment is expected to position Olam as one of the largest agro-allied companies globally.

The Crown Prince praised Tinubu’s economic reforms, recognizing similarities to the steps he took in Saudi Arabia to bolster the nation’s stability and development upon becoming Prime Minister. He also assured Nigeria of his support and promised to encourage his team to drive the initiatives discussed during their meeting.

Additionally, the summit renewed the commitment of Nigeria and other member states to the Joint Arab-Islamic Ministerial Committee’s efforts to address the ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon. The Committee, led by Saudi Arabia, has been tasked with engaging global leaders to bring an end to the wars in these regions. The resolution also emphasized the protection of sea lanes under international law and reaffirmed support for the Palestinian cause.

The meeting was attended by key Saudi officials, including Abdullah Abdulaziz, Minister of National Guard, and Khalid Abdulaziz, Minister of Defence.
