This book examines relations between Nigeria and the United States,
analyzing the levels of collaboration and interaction between the
two countries since Nigerian independence in 1960. The central
objective of the volume is to understand how American policy-makers
have thought about and acted toward Nigeria from the time she
achieved statehood in 1960 until the end of Obama Administration.
There is huge potential in Nigeria; the country has the largest
population in Africa and is well-endowed in terms of both human and
natural resources. Additionally, it has the largest economy and
biggest market on the continent, the largest concentration of Black
population in the world, a burgeoning and vibrant youthful
population, and a tradition of international engagement since its
independence. With a population of over 170 million, and as
America's largest trading partner in Africa, Nigeria is a key power
in Africa, and a major player in world affairs. Nigeria's position
in the twenty-first century offers the possibility for a positive
new chapter in Nigeria-United States relations.
