VP Kashim Shettima arrives in Sweden for 2-day bilateral talks, representing President Bola Tinubu. Meetings with Crown Princess Victoria and Swedish PM on agenda.

Vice President Kashim Shettima has arrived in Sweden for a two-day visit, representing President Bola Tinubu in crucial bilateral discussions. He's not alone - Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfawang, Minister of Foreign Affairs Yusuf Tuggar, and heads of various government agencies and parastatals are also part of the delegation.

During his visit, Shettima is scheduled to engage in high-level talks with top Swedish officials, including a meeting with Crown Princess Victoria and the Swedish Prime Minister. This visit underscores the importance of strengthening ties between Nigeria and Sweden, and Shettima's presence underscores President Tinubu's commitment to fostering international cooperation.

As Vice President, Shettima has already made notable appearances on the global stage, including delivering a speech at the 79th United Nations General Assembly session in September 2024. His experience as a former Governor of Borno State and Senator for Borno Central will likely inform his discussions in Sweden.
