The Presidency has described the recent letter from United States President Donald Trump to President Bola Tinubu <\/a>as further evidence that the Tinubu <\/a>administration is making progress, particularly in the area of security and its relationship with the United States.<\/p>\n Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, made the remarks on Wednesday during an appearance on Channels Television\u2019s Politics Today.<\/p>\n He was reacting to Trump\u2019s letter praising Tinubu\u2019s leadership and anti-terrorism efforts.<\/p>\n Bwala said the letter reflected the growing recognition of the administration\u2019s achievements, insisting that the government\u2019s engagement with the United States was already producing positive results.<\/p>\n \u201cFact speaks for itself. That\u2019s what it is. The letter is further proof of the progress we are making,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n He added that the government\u2019s commitment to strengthening bilateral ties and improving security would continue regardless of whether such recognition was publicly expressed.<\/p>\n \u201cDoes it mean if there was no letter, we will stop? No. Because we are already engaging and communicating with them,\u201d Bwala stated.<\/p>\n Drawing an analogy, he said, \u201cIf you are in a relationship with a lady, and then because of the relationship, you write a letter encouraging her, or she writes a letter encouraging you, then you feel further strengthened but it does not stop your commitment.\u201d<\/p>\n POLITICS NIGERIA reported earlier that Trump, in a letter dated July 6, 2026, commended Tinubu <\/a>for what he described as his decisive leadership in tackling terrorism and other security challenges in Nigeria. The letter was released on Wednesday by the President\u2019s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.<\/p>\n![\"US](\"https:\/\/politicsnigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20260721_2001059025596027090194221-300x169.jpg\")
