"On behalf of 140 crore Indians, I express condolences over the loss of lives due to flood in Nigeria last month. In support of relief works, India is sending 20 tons of humanitarian aid," PM Modi said during a meeting with Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Abuja.
Ahead of the PM's visit, India had also sent 15 tons of humanitarian aid to Nigeria as the country reels under devastating floods.
PM Modi during his address also expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the Nigerian President for his "personal commitment" to strengthening the strategic partnership between India and Nigeria and highlighted the milestones achieved.
"I express gratitude for your personal commitment to strengthening strategic relations between India and Nigeria. I am happy that last year, under the chairmanship of India, Nigeria joined the G20 Summit for the first time as a guest country... It is delightful that Nigeria has been accorded the status of a partner country in BRICS. I congratulate Nigeria on this important achievement. According to me, this is a very historic," PM Modi said.
"As it was said right now, an Indian PM is visiting here after 17 years. It is a matter of great joy for me that right at the beginning of my third tenure, I received the opportunity to visit Nigeria. I am very grateful for this," he said.
