Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari is set to meet US President Donald Trump in Washington on Monday, to discuss economic and military ties.

It is the second time Buhari has sat down with a US president in the three years he has been in power.

The talks take place at a time when both the US and China are looking to strengthen financial relations with Africa.

Al Jazeera's Ahmed Idris reports from Abuja on what the talks might achieve.
