The presidency on Sunday rose in defence of President Bola Tinubu’s ongoing state visit to Saint Lucia, saying the week-long visit will boost relations between Nigeria and the Caribbean.
It also emphasised that the visit was in line with the country’s four D’s foreign policy framework of democracy, development, diaspora, and demography.
The presidency, in a statement signed by presidential spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga,
declared that in an era of global uncertainty, deepening cooperation among the Global South, particularly between continental Africa and the Caribbean, had become imperative.
