United States President
Barack Obama has sent his greetings and that of the American people to
Nigerians for the 54th Anniversary of the country as an independent nation.
In a letter addressed to
President Goodluck Jonathan, Obama acknowledged Nigeria's leadership role in
Africa and at the UN towards promoting regional peace and stability.
The letter made
available by the US Embassy in Abuja reads in part "At the heart of our
enduring friendship is our shared commitment to democratic values, the rule of
law, and economic development."
"We look forward to
strengthening our relationship and working closely in the coming year,
especially in promoting good governance and combating terrorism. As Nigerians
observe this special day, we wish you a more peaceful and prosperous
year."
