Brazil has formally announced Nigeria’s ission as a partner country in the BRICS alliance.

The Brazilian foreign ministry communicated the development in a statement on Friday.

The Brazilian government welcomes the Nigerian government’s decision,” the statement said.

Originally comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, the alliance began to expand after more countries began seeking to the group of leading emerging economies.

The alliance’s partner-country category was created at the 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan in October 2024.

During the summit, reports indicated that Nigeria had ed as a partner country.

Eche Abu-Obe, then-spokepserson of the ministry of foreign affairs, had also touted Nigeria’s acceptance into the league.

Brazil’s announcement makes Nigeria BRICS’ ninth partner country, ing Belarus, Bolivia, Cuba, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Thailand, Uganda, and Uzbekistan.

With the world’s sixth-largest population—and Africa’s largest—as well as being one of the continent’s major economies, Nigeria shares convergent interests with other of BRICS,” the Brazilian foreign ministry added.

“It plays an active role in strengthening South-South cooperation and in reforming global governance—issues that are top priorities during Brazil’s current presidency.”

Nigeria has continued to push for full hip in the alliance.

Nigeria's acceptance as a BRICS partner country offers several potential benefits:

1. Economic Cooperation: Partnering with BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—can enhance Nigeria's trade relations, opening new markets for exports and attracting investments.

2. Currency Flexibility: Engaging with BRICS may allow Nigeria to conduct trade in local currencies, reducing dependence on the US dollar and mitigating exchange rate volatility.

3. Infrastructure Development: Collaboration with BRICS' New Development Bank could provide Nigeria with access to funding for critical infrastructure projects, fostering economic growth.

4. Global Influence: As a BRICS partner, Nigeria can participate in shaping policies that reflect the interests of developing nations, enhancing its diplomatic standing.

5. Knowledge Exchange: Partnership facilitates sharing of technological innovations and best practices in sectors like agriculture, energy, and education, contributing to Nigeria's development.

While these opportunities are promising, Nigeria must navigate challenges such as aligning its policies with BRICS objectives and ensuring that partnerships yield tangible benefits for its populace.

For now, I don't think we need to any group. Reasonable number of those groups are fund raising.

You will remit remit as a member state without getting anything tangible in return. Ordinary attending their meetings will cost state resources.

India went to the moon 🌕. Spent billions on it while there are billions of Indians languishing in poverty.

I honestly thought you were smarter than this crap you are typing. What has India 'going to the moon' got to do with Nigeria ing BRICS?

Okay. India is one of the founder of this BRICS. The top state must show some proof in one way or the other just to attract other nations to the group so they went to the moon. Okay for scientific purpose but of what benefits to the billions of Indians living below poverty. No disrespecting, Indians are not hygienic.

As for the BRICS itself, they must have goals and those goals will required money, I mean money. Who do you think will get them the money if not the state.

Nigeria is not having issue with any country regarding trade as for now. Trump in USA, don't let me call him a crazy man, he can sanction Africa countries that ed the BRICS because the stronger the BRICS, the lower the dollar.

ing or no ing is not going to affect our trade and partnership with BRICS member states. We don't need to get involved with the world leaders games.

The BRICS goals, how would they achieve it without involving money?

Research, hahahah, Helinues na media himself. I create news here on NL. I always explore things bro. No limit no boundaries

Someone created a thread about Russia not having electronics because he hasn't come across one... Hahahah African countries including Nigeria stay away from anything Russia products because of the fear of USA and Uk sanctioning. Soviet Union first went to the space, so what's electronics.

Those are the deliberate saboteurs or perhaps consequences for getting involved in the world leaders game.

Have we not been trading with the BRICS state?

We can still take one leg in, one leg out. Let the ministers be representing Nigeria in their meetings without the presidency getting involved. No one will put eyes with that

it is at this time that we need to organisations like BRICS, pro westernism is now old fashioned all third world countries from Africa, Latin America, and Asia will wanted to BRICS, don't forget that China and India are one of our biggest trading partners, with the free fall of in Africa Nigeria under BRICS will boost the image of the country and enhanced our leadership role in Africa if we don't some African country will filled our role probably Algeria.

Nigeria needs to free itself from this pro western politics it is no longer relevant.

Okay for scientific purpose but of what benefits to the billions of Indians living below poverty. No disrespecting, Indians are not hygienic.
.

FACT CHECK
India did not spend "Billions" in going to moon, we spent $0.087 Billion. Earlier that same year India earned $0.120 Billion from launching 72 satellites for a British Satellite company named One Web (because our former colonisers do not have the capability to launch satellites on their own).
India earned more launching British satellites that year than the amount India spent on that moon landing mission.

Billions languishing in poverty in India? Step out of your echo chamber.
India lifted 415 Million Indians out of poverty in 15 years. Source: UN report on Multi Dimensional Poverty 2022.
India has almost eliminated Extreme Poverty, only 2.2% Indians in extreme poverty today. Source: World Bank



Multiple ways in which India's moon mission helps India as a whole. That includes India's poorest people:
1.) Money spent on moon mission went into pockets of local Indian Medium and Small industries to whom work for the mission was subcontracted. These industries paid their blue collar employees. This prevented the blue collar employees from falling into poverty. These employees then sent money to their villages where they used it to improve the local village economy, uplifting them. Only bufoons think that the money India spent on the moon mission simply vanished in thin air. Money flows in an economy and creates value when it flows. At least learn the basics before trying to judgement on the actions of a nation that has proven its expertise in poverty reduction.

2.) The moon missions help India retain top engineering talent (otherwise they would have gone to USA).

3.) But MOST IMPORTANTLY the money spent was an investment into the future when humanity colonizes the solar system and mines the riches of the asteroid belt. Right after India landed on moon, India released initial funding for a 15 year long program of Indians creating a Manned Moon Colony in the 2040s. Because the Indian moon landing validated the technology we will need to make a moon colony. Only four nations on Earth are doing this: USA, China, Russia and now India. Others like Europeans are not developing an independent capability for it, meaning that they will be dependent on USA when the space mining economy finally kicks off. India, will not be dependent on anyone to mine the asteroids.

Sound like fantasy? This is our vision for the future. And having a vision of the future is the hallmark of any leading nation of humanity. A nation that doesn't even have such a vision will never ever get there, nor reap its fruits. Decades from now, the grandchildren of those you call "poorest Indians who don't benefit from moon mission" will live a better life thanks to the riches of the asteroid belt that India will mine, manufacture products with and sell to Nigeria.

PS: We did not go to the moon to "prove to other nations why they must BRICS." Don't be ridiculous. BRICS is just a tool for India to create ways to benefit from reducing West's stature. Had the West not established an exclusionary hegemony, India would have had no need for BRICS. The moon mission, like I said, is India investing in future tech that will shape the world decades from now.

Babylon as referenced here is not a country, city or place.

John in the Bible used “Holy City” to represent those who keep the commandments of God, and in contrast, the city of Babylon is used throughout Revelation as those who do not.

USA is a perfect example as such demonic and devilish city the Bible talked about.
