Nigeria has agreed to join the global group of countries known as BRICS, the Brazilian government announced on Friday.

The Brazilian Foreign Ministry made this announcement on Friday.

Brazil, which will be the bloc’s 2025 president, said in the statement that Nigeria has been aggressively enhancing collaboration in the Global South and changing global governance, two issues that Brazil has prioritized.

“As the 6th largest population in the world and the 1st on the African continent, as well as one of the largest economies in Africa, Nigeria has converging interests with the other members of the group,” the statement said.

Reporters gathered that Nigeria joined the BRICS in a status already held by another eight nations primarily in Latin America, Eastern Europe and Asia.
