PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, it’s a great pleasure to welcome President
Buhari and his delegation here to the Oval Office for his first visit since
the historic election that took place.

Nigeria is obviously one of the important countries in the world and
one of the most important countries in the African continent. Recently,
we saw an election in which a peaceful transition to a new government
took place. And it was an affirmation of Nigeria’s commitment to
democracy, a recognition that although Nigeria is a big country and a
diverse country with many different parts, nevertheless the people of
Nigeria understand that only through a peaceful political process can
change take place.

President Buhari comes into office with a reputation for integrity and a
very clear agenda, and that is to make sure that he is bringing safety
and security and peace to his country.

He’s very concerned about the spread of Boko Haram and the violence
that’s taken place there, and the atrocities that they’ve carried out, and
has a very clear agenda in defeating Boko Haram and extremists of all
sorts inside of his country. And he has a very clear agenda with
respect to rooting out the corruption that too often has held back the
economic growth and prosperity of his country.

On both these issues, we’re looking forward to hearing more about his
plans and how the United States can partner with Nigeria so that
Nigeria ends up being an anchor not only of prosperity and stability in
the eastern part of the continent, but can also be an outstanding role
model for developing countries around the world.

And we very much look forward to talking about security issues, how
we can cooperate on counterterrorism. We’re looking forward to
discussing how we can be helpful in addressing some of the
corruption issues that have held Nigeria back, and unleashing the
incredible talent of the Nigerian people. We all recognize that some of
the best businesspeople in the world are from Nigeria, and they thrive
as they travel to other countries, but we want to make sure that they’re
also helping folks thrive in Nigeria.

We’re also going to have an opportunity to talk about some of the
other areas where Nigeria has taken leadership — in public health
issues, fighting tragedies like Ebola. Nigeria has an outstanding track
record working with us to eradicate polio, and that gives us a
framework and a template to continue to work on public health issues
throughout the western part of Africa, as well as throughout the
subcontinent.

We’ll have a chance to talk about issues of climate change,
electrification. As many of you know, Power Africa is one of our top
priorities, making sure that we’re electrifying the continent so that it
can grow faster and more people have access to the power that they
need.
So we’ve got a busy agenda, but I want to emphasize how much I
appreciate President Buhari’s work so far. I’m looking forward to
seeing him put together his team so that we can do everything that we
can to help him succeed and help the people of Nigeria succeed.
Because if they’re successful and doing well, that will have a ripple
effect not only in West Africa, but throughout the world.
So thank you very much.
Mr. President.

PRESIDENT BUHARI: Nigeria will remain ever grateful to President
Obama and the United States for making Nigeria to consolidate its
gains on a democratic system. The visit of the Secretary of State,
when he visited Nigeria to see the President and the whole government
of Nigeria, see the Chairman of Independent National Electoral
Commission for Nigeria, and saw the operation was very clear and a
positive trend that saw us through for this credible election we had.
And the maintenance of pressure by the United States, mainly, and
Europe, to make sure that the elections were free, fair and credible led
us to where we are now. It would have been almost impossible if the
United States did not maintain the pressure on the former Nigerian
government, but they would not accept anything less constitutional as
far as the processes of the election are concerned. We will ever remain
grateful to you because there are fundamental objectives that are
identify all of Nigeria’s people’s Congress — security, economy,
employment especially of youth, and then fighting corruption.

We are extremely happy that the United States had made it absolutely
clear before the election that they are prepared to help Nigeria in this
aspect. And this is why I am here, and I am very grateful for the
invitation Mr. President extended to me.

Thank you very much, Mr. President.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you so much.
QUEST ION FROM A JOURNALIST: Mr. President, the Security Council
approved the deal (Iran). Will that help you in Congress?

PRESIDENT OBAMA: I think it will send a clear message that the
overwhelming number of countries who not only participated in the
deal, the P5+1, but who have observed what’s happened, recognize
that this is by far our strongest approach to ensuring that Iran does
not get a nuclear weapon. There is broad international consensus
around this issue — not just among the international community, but
also among experts in nuclear proliferation. And my working
assumption is that Congress will pay attention to the broad-based
consensus.
