Ribadu, in a post on his official X-Handle on Saturday, said the visit was a continuation of earlier engagements in Washington, D.C., aimed at advancing shared priorities.
He said the high-level visit underscored the importance both nations attach to cooperation on security and stability.
“This morning, I received a U.S. Congressional delegation on a fact-finding mission to Nigeria, following our earlier engagements in Washington, D.C., on shared security priorities.
“The discussions focused on counter-terrorism cooperation, regional stability, and strengthening the Nigeria–U.S. strategic security partnership,” he said.
According to Ribadu, the delegation included Rep. Mario Díaz-Balart, Rep. Norma Torres, Rep. Scott Franklin, Rep. Juan Ciscomani and Rep. Riley Moore, alongside the U.S. Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Richard Mills.
