United States President Donald Trump has shared a video of the moment Nigeria’s Amina Mohammed welcomed him and U.S First Lady Melenia Trump on their arrival at the UN General Assembly on Tuesday.
Mohammed welcomed Trump and the U.S First Lady to the 7th session of the UNGA in her capacity as the Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations.

The video posted on Trump’s verified twitter page will surely generate excitement among Nigerian diplomats and foreign affairs staff.
It would certainly be seen as an image boost for Nigeria at a time that another fellow Nigerian, Tijjani Muhammad-Bande, holds the position of President of the UN General Assembly.
Muhammad-Bande, who was voted as UNGA president on June 4, 2019, could also be seen in the video shared by Trump presiding over the sessions of the general assembly.

Meanwhile, Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari, who also attended this year’s UNGA meeting, spoke about climate change, the $9.6 billion P&ID judgment debt, and xenophobic attacks against Nigerians in South Africa, amongst others, in his speech.
