President Bola Tinubu has received a delegation from the United States led by the Commander of the United States Africa Command (USAFRICOM) at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The delegation was led by General Dagvin R. Anderson, Commander of USAFRICOM, and accompanied by the Chargé d’Affaires of the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria, Mr. Keith Heffern, alongside other members of the team.

The meeting took place at the State House, where the President welcomed the visitors in the company of the National Security Adviser (NSA), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, and the nation’s service chiefs.

This was disclosed in a statement on Sunday by the Special Assistant to the President on Social Media, Mr. Dada Olusegun.

According to the statement, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, alongside his National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, and service chiefs, received in audience the Commander of the United States Africa Command, General Dagvin Anderson, his team, and the Chargé d’Affaires of the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria, Keith Heffern, at the State House, Abuja.”

Although details of the closed-door meeting were not immediately made public, the visit comes amid growing security cooperation between Nigeria and the United States.

The engagement also follows reports that the United States recently deployed a small team of troops to Nigeria on February 3, marking the first official U.S. military presence on Nigerian soil since airstrikes targeted terrorist positions in the country on Christmas Day 2025.
