Kenya–Nigeria relations are bilateral relations between Nigeria and Kenya. Both countries are members of the Non-Aligned Movement, African Union and the Commonwealth of Nations.

History

The two African nations officially established diplomatic relations on 20 September 1966.[1] In 2013 Goodluck Jonathan made a highly publicized state visit to Nairobi. Uhuru Kenyatta reciprocated in 2014.

Kenya and Nigeria signed seven agreements that will boost bilateral and trade ties between the two countries. The agreements covered tourism, trade and investment; oil and gas, visa exemption for diplomatic passport holders; conclusion of agreements on double taxation; agriculture, livestock and fisheries; and twinning of cities.[2]

Other deals include mutual cooperation between the Foreign Service Institute of Kenya and the Foreign Service Academy of Nigeria.[3]

MoUs were also signed on cooperation in police service, five-year multiple visas for prominent businesspersons, cooperation in the control of the possession trafficking in narcotics drugs and psychotropic substances.[4]
