I want to say a special thank you to young people in Nigeria. They were on social media sending so many encouraging videos.

She added:

You nominated me, you wrote 100s of letters, called up 100s of world leaders. Without your personal and direct intervention, it may not have worked. The people of Nigeria also supported me massively.

On some of the issues she discussed with Buhari, she said she discussed on improving Nigeria’s share of global trade, developing Nigeria’s Services sector, COVID-19, attracting investment; training & capacity building and safe schools.
