USAfrica, June 8, 2011: In continuing the U.S government’s bilateral and regional interests with the two countries, President Barack Obama will today and Thursday meet with two major oil producing countries.
In a White House statement sent to USAfrica multimedia networks Houston, the President Obama “will welcome President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria to the White House on Wednesday, June 8. The President looks forward to consulting with President Jonathan on the latest regional and global developments, and deepening our strong
bilateral partnership.” Jonathan was sworn in on May 29, 2011 in Abuja, after a disputed election in April. Many observers consider his elections as largely fair.
