Why US-Nigeria Relations Matter

The partnership between the United States and Nigeria represents one of the most consequential bilateral relationships of the 21st century. As Africa's largest economy and most populous nation, Nigeria plays a pivotal role in regional stability, economic development, and democratic governance across the continent. The United States shares deep historical, cultural, and economic ties with Nigeria, anchored by a vibrant Nigerian diaspora community and growing trade relations.
Together, our nations confront shared challenges—from advancing democratic institutions and combating security threats to fostering inclusive economic growth and addressing climate change. The strength of the US-Nigeria partnership directly impacts our collective ability to create stability, opportunity, and prosperity across the Atlantic region.
Twin Eagles Alliance exists to ensure this vital relationship receives the sustained attention, strategic thinking, and collaborative action it deserves.
