The Nigeria–Britain Association (N-BA) is poised to strengthen the existing bilateral relationship between the country and the United Kingdom.

The President of the association, Ademola Sanya stated this over the weekend in Lagos after his election at the 57th Annual General Meeting (AGM).

Apart from strengthening the existing relationship between the two countries, Sanya also promised to build stronger member participation and commitment and expansion of the association’s community through increased engagement and institutional growth initiatives.

He mentioned these as the key focus areas that would shape the direction of the association under his leadership.

Also, Sanya reiterated the continued readiness of the association in serving as a strategic platform for fostering relationships, dialogue and partnerships between both countries across business, diplomacy, culture, education, and professional sectors.

He further commended the immediate past President, Sola Oyetayo, for his dedication and contributions to strengthening the association’s institutional framework and strategic direction.

The AGM, which saw strong member participation across the association, provided an opportunity to review the N-BA’s activities, assess institutional progress, and outlined strategic priorities for the 2026/2027 tenure.

In addition to the Executive Committee, 13 members were elected into the Governing Council to support the leadership in advancing the strategic objectives and institutional vision of the association.
