Nigeria : Donald Trump Ignores Buhari’s congratulatory message, responds other world leaders
Washington - Signs that Nigeria may have it rough under US President-elect Donald Trump have begun to manifest.
Trump has snubbed President Muhammadu Buhari by not reciprocating Buhari's congratulatory message to him.
Trump had within the first 24 hours of his victory called some leaders of other countries.
Buhari was among the first world leaders that congratulated Trump on his victory in Wednesday's presidential election.
Buhari in his message said he looks forward to working together with Trump to strengthen the already established friendly relations between both countries, including cooperation on many shared foreign policy priorities, such as the fight against terrorism, peace and security, economic growth, democracy and good governance.
But while Trump has responded to the messages of other world leaders, he has failed to acknowledge Buhari's gesture.
Some of the world leaders Trump has spoken to since he won the US presidential election are -
President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi of Egypt
Prime Minister Enda Kenny of Ireland
President Enrique Peña Nieto of Mexico
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey
Prime Minster Narendra Modi of India
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull of Australia
President Park Geun-hye of South Korea
British Prime Minister Theresa May
