Africa

CountryFormal Relations BeganNotes
AngolaSeeAngola–Nigeria relations

Angolan-Nigerian relations are primarily based on their roles as oil exporting nations. Both are members of theOrganization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, the African Union and other multilateral organizations.

The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, sent a message to his Angolan counterpart, José Eduardo dos Santos, in which he manifested his interest in keeping and strengthening the excellent relations that exist between both countries, aiming at generating better benefits for the two peoples.

  • Angola has an embassy in Abuja.
  • Nigeria has an embassy inLuanda.
CameroonSeeCameroon-Nigeria relations

A long-standing border dispute with Cameroon over the potentially oil-richBakassi Peninsula was resolved by a 2002 decision by theInternational Court of Justice which granted Cameroon ownership of the region and the 2006 signing of theGreentree Agreement which led to the withdrawal of Nigerian troops from Bakassi in 2008 and complete administrative control being taken over by Cameroon in August 2013.[184] Nigeria released about 150 Cameroonian prisoners of war in late 1998.

  • Cameroon has a high commission in Abuja and a consulate-general in Calabar.
  • Nigeria has a high commission inYaoundé, a consulate-general inDouala and a consulate inBuea.
ChadSeeChad–Nigeria relations

Nigeria's 1983 economic austerity campaign produced strains with neighbouring states, including Chad. Nigeria expelled several hundred thousand foreign workers, mostly from its oil industry, which faced drastic cuts as a result of declining world oil prices. At least 30,000 of those expelled were Chadians. Despite these strains, however, Nigerians had assisted in the halting process of achieving stability in Chad, and both nations reaffirmed their intention to maintain close ties.

  • Chad has an embassy in Abuja and a consulate in Maiduguri.
  • Nigeria has an embassy inN'Djamena.
Ethiopia
  • Ethiopia has an embassy in Abuja.
  • Nigeria has an embassy inAddis Ababa.
Ghana1 October 1960SeeGhana–Nigeria relations

Ghana set up a commission in 1959 when Nigeria was still a dependent territory. This was elevated to High Commission status on the attainment of Nigeria's independence on 1 October 1960[185]

Ghana Nigerian relations have been both bitter and sweet. In 1969 numerous Nigerians were deported from Ghana. Relations in the 1970s were good. Ghana-Nigeria relations began on a sour note in the early period of PNDC rule. Tension rose immediately after the PNDC deposedLimann in 1981. In protest, Nigeria refused to continue much-needed oil supplies to Ghana. At the time, Ghana owed Nigeria about US$150 million for crude oil supplies and depended on Nigeria for about 90 percent of its petroleum needs. Nigeria's expulsion of more than 1 million Ghanaian immigrants in early 1983, when Ghana was facing severe drought and economic problems, and of another 300,000 in early 1985 on short notice, further strained relations between the two countries.[186]

In April 1988, a joint commission for cooperation was established between Ghana and Nigeria. A bloodless coup in August 1985 had brought Major GeneralIbrahim Babangida to power in Nigeria, and Rawlings took advantage of the change of administration to pay an official visit. The two leaders discussed a wide range of issues focusing on peace and prosperity within West Africa, bilateral trade, and the transition to democracy in both countries. In early January 1989, Babangida reciprocated with an official visit to Ghana, which the PNDC hailed as a watershed in Ghana-Nigeria relations.[186]

Subsequent setbacks that Babangida initiated in the democratic transition process in Nigeria clearly disappointed Accra. Nonetheless, the political crisis that followed Babangida's annulment of the results of the June 1993 Nigerian presidential election and Babangida's resignation from the army and presidency two months later did not significantly alter the existing close relations between Ghana and Nigeria, two of the most important members of ECOWAS and the Commonwealth of Nations. After the takeover in November 1993 by General Sani Abacha as the new Nigerian head of state, Ghana and Nigeria continued to consult on economic, political, and security issues affecting the two countries and West Africa as a whole. Between early August 1994 when Rawlings became ECOWAS chairman and the end of the following October, the Ghanaian president visited Nigeria three times to discuss the peace process in Liberia and measures to restore democracy in that country.[186]

Nigeria and Ghana today have a close relationship, and they collaborate on various issues. Ghana and Nigeria are bothrepublics in the Commonwealth of Nations.

  • Ghana has a high commission in Abuja and a consulate-general in Lagos.
  • Nigeria has a high commission inAccra.
  • Both countries are full members of theCommonwealth of Nations.
KenyaSeeKenya–Nigeria relations
Libya

Nigeria recalled its ambassador, Isa Aliyu Mohammed, to Libya on 18 March 2010.[187] The recall was in responses to a suggestion by Libyan leader, ColonelMuammar Gaddafi, that Nigeria should separate into a Muslim northern state and a Christian southern state.[188] Gaddafi had made the suggestion in light ofrecent violence between the rival religions in Nigeria which had resulted in hundreds of deaths.[188] In addition Gaddafi had praised thePartition of India, which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, as the kind of model that Nigeria should follow.[188]

The Nigerian foreign ministry stated that it was recalling Mohammed for "urgent negotiations" due to the "irresponsible utterances of Colonel Gaddafi".[188] TheNigerian National Assembly has requested that the government ask theUnited Nations to prohibit Gaddafi from calling for the division of Nigeria.[187] The National Assembly also passed a motion urging the government to order anAfrican Union investigation into whether Libya was attempting to destabilise the country through "infiltrators".[189]

Both countries established diplomatic relations on 8 June 1961 when M. Elhad Camatte Hammodon Maiga, ambassador of Niger to Nigeria presented his letters of credentials to the Governor General Azikiwe[34]

Nigeria maintains close relations with the Republic of Niger, in part because both nations share a largeHausa minority on each side of their 1500 km border. Hausa language and cultural ties are strong, but there is little interest in a pan-Hausa state.[192] The two nations formed the Nigeria-Niger Joint Commission for Cooperation (NNJC), established in March, 1971 with its Permanent Secretariat in Niamey, Niger.[193]

  • Niger has an embassy in Abuja and a consulate-general in Kano.

United States1 October 1960Both countries established diplomatic relations on 1 October 1960[207]

SeeNigeria–United States relations

After the June 12, 1993, Nigerian presidential election was annulled, and in light ofhuman rights abuses and the failure to embark on a meaningful democratic transition, the United States imposed numerous sanctions on Nigeria. These sanctions included the imposition of Section 212(f) of theImmigration and Nationality Act to refuse entry into the United States of senior government officials and others who formulated, implemented, or benefited from policies impeding Nigeria's transition to democracy; suspension of all military assistance; and a ban on the sale and repair of military goods and refinery services to Nigeria. The U.S. Ambassador was recalled for consultations for four months after the execution of theOgoni Nine on November 10, 1995.

After a period of increasingly strained relations, the death of General Abacha in June 1998 and his replacement by General Abubakar opened a new phase of improved bilateral relations. As the transition to democracy progressed, the removal of visa restrictions, increased high-level visits of U.S. officials, discussions of future assistance, and the granting of a Vital National Interest Certification on counter-narcotics, effective in March 1999, paved the way for re-establishment of closer ties between the United States and Nigeria, as a key partner in the region and the continent. Since the inauguration of the democratically elected Obasanjo government, the bilateral relationship has continued to improve, and cooperation on many important foreign policy goals, such as regional peacekeeping, has been good.

The government has lent strong diplomatic support to the U.S. Government counter-terrorism efforts in the aftermath of theSeptember 11, 2001 attacks. The Government of Nigeria, in its official statements, has both condemned the terrorist attacks as well as supported military action against theTaliban andAl-Qaeda. Nigeria also has played a leading role in forging an anti-terrorism consensus among states inSub-Saharan Africa.

As a member of theInternational Criminal Court Nigeria signed a Bilateral Immunity Agreement of protection for the US military (as covered underArticle 98). A comprehensive passage is updated.

Nigeria has since become an important source of oil and petroleum for China's rapidly growing economy and Nigeria is looking to China for help in achieving high economic growth; China has provided extensive economic, military and political support.[212][213] In 2004 and again in 2006,Chinese PresidentHu Jintao madestate visits to Nigeria and addressed ajoint session of theNational Assembly of Nigeria.
