“We hope that Prime Minister Carney’s extensive banking and governance experience will guide Canada at this crucial moment in its history,” Tinubu said.
He reaffirmed Nigeria’s commitment to strengthening bilateral relations with Canada, particularly in education, climate change, and migration. Tinubu expressed optimism about building a dynamic partnership with Carney’s government, leveraging the goodwill established under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Carney’s victory comes amid tensions with the United States, driven by trade disputes and sovereignty concerns under President Donald Trump’s administration.
