Nigeria’s acting president, Goodluck Jonathan will take part in next week’s Nuclear Security Summit at the White House, where he is also expected to meet President Obama. On April 6, the administration took what Secretary of State Hilary Clinton called a “concrete step forward that will strengthen and deepen the partnership between our two nations” with the launch in Washington, DC of the U.S.-Nigeria Binational Commission.
