The US president-elect, Donald Trump, has snubbed President Muhammadu
Buhari by calling 10 leaders of other countries within 24 hours of his
victory without putting a call to Nigeria.
Trump
also sparked suggestions that he may side-line the United Kingdom in his
policies after he called 9 world leaders before extending a call to the British
Prime minister Theresa May.
The decision to call the prime minister of Ireland ahead of
Mrs May prompted questions about the health of the ‘special relationship’
between the UK and the US following Trump’s victory. But some fear the new
president does not view the UK’s interests as a priority
. See the list of world leaders Donald Trump has spoken to
since he won the US presidential election.
1. President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi of Egypt
2. Prime Minister Enda Kenny of Ireland
3. President Enrique Peña Nieto of Mexico
4. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israe
l 5. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of Turkey
6. Prime minster Narendra Modi of India
7. Prime Minister Shinzō Abe of Japan
8. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull of Australia
9. President Park Geun-hye of South Korea
10. And British prime minister Theresa May Recall
that President Muhammadu Buhari was among world leaders who congratulated
the president-elect of the United States of America,
. Donald Trump on his victory at the polls. Buhari in a
statement on Wednesday, November 9, also congratulated US citizens on the
outcome of the election.
