Nigeria is thinking about joining the G20 group of big economies.
President Bola Tinubu’s spokesperson Ajuri Ngelale said on Sunday that the government is thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of joining before deciding whether to apply.
Mr Ngelale said in a statement that Nigeria wants to be a part of the G20, but the government is talking to different people to understand the good and bad things that could come from being a member.
President Tinubu went to Delhi because he was invited by the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend a summit with other leaders.
Mr Ngelale said that Mr. Tinubu went to the G20 summit to look for money from other countries to invest in Nigeria. He also wanted to get more people interested in investing in Nigeria and make agreements with other countries to work together.
Right now, South Africa is the only country from Africa that is part of the G20.
