Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, has held talks with United States Vice President J. D. Vance, in a meeting seen as part of broader efforts to strengthen security and diplomatic cooperation between both countries.
Details of the discussions were not immediately disclosed, but the meeting comes amid growing regional and global concerns over security, counterterrorism, and strategic partnerships.
Observers say the engagement underscores Nigeria’s increasing diplomatic outreach as Africa’s most populous nation seeks deeper collaboration with Washington on defence, intelligence sharing and economic stability.
The meeting also highlights the growing international profile of Ribadu, who has played a central role in shaping Nigeria’s security strategy under the administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
