Barely 48 hours after the US announced visa restrictions on "rogue" Nigerian politicians who tampered with the recent presidential election, the country has reached out to President-elect Bola Tinubu to express its commitment to the incoming administration. 

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke with Tinubu on Tuesday morning to emphasise his continued commitment to strengthening US-Nigeria relations.
