Brasilia, Brazil — President Bola Tinubu has landed in Brasilia for a two-day State Visit, responding to an invitation from Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
The visit aims to deepen Nigeria’s economic and political connections with Latin America’s largest economy and is expected to generate multi-billion dollar investments spanning agriculture, energy, and technology sectors.
During his stay, President Tinubu will engage in bilateral discussions with President Lula da Silva, participate in a Nigeria–Brazil Business Forum featuring top investors, and witness the signing of important agreements and Memoranda of Understanding.
According to the Presidency, a key focus of the visit is to advance long-planned agricultural investments such as the $1.1 billion Green Imperative mechanization project, while attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into Nigeria’s agriculture and energy industries.
Officials say the visit will also bolster collaboration in aviation, renewable energy, cultural exchange, and digital innovation.
“These engagements will deepen political trust, expand cultural partnerships, and unlock joint opportunities in renewable energy, climate resilience, and technology,” the statement added.
