Last week in the United Kingdom, we took important steps to deepen a partnership that has stood the test of time.
But this visit was not about history. It was about the future.
Trade. Investment. Jobs. Opportunities for our people.
From our engagements to the agreements signed, we are building a relationship that delivers real value for Nigerians.
Thank you, Your Majesty King Charles III, and the good people of the United Kingdom for the welcome.

BREAKING NEWS: The Central Bank of Nigeria has been named the global โCentral Bank of the Yearโ at the 2026 Central Banking Awards, following sweeping monetary and structural reforms that have helped stabilise the countryโs economy after years of policy distortions.
@ruffydfire@Sylamlabu Rumors or posts calling it a "royal" loan seem to stem from the timing (during the state visit with King Charles) and confusion over the parties involved, but reliable reports confirm it's a UK government-backed export finance package.
@ruffydfire@Sylamlabu announcements like this deal.
This is a standard bilateral economic arrangement between the **UK government** and **Nigeria**, not a personal or royal family transaction. The Royals don't operate or fund such loans โ that's handled by government bodies like UKEF.
@ruffydfire@Sylamlabu Key points:
- It's structured as **export credit finance**, where the UK guarantees the deal to help British companies secure contracts (e.g., ยฃ236 million in supplier contracts for UK firms, including ยฃ70 million for British Steel).
@ruffydfire@Sylamlabu (UKEF)** โ a UK government agency โ and arranged/coordinated by Citibank. The financing supports the modernization and refurbishment of Nigeria's Apapa and Tin Can Island ports in Lagos.
