United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Richard Miller, led a delegation from the US Embassy and Consulate on a visit to the Arewa House in Kaduna on March 18, 2025.
The visit aimed to strengthen the partnership between the Embassy and the Center for Historical Research and Documentation at Arewa House.
During the visit Ambassador Miller and his team were received by the Director of Arewa House, Prof Salisu Bala who gave a detailed history of Arewa House, established in 1970, and highlighted its cordial relationship with the American embassy.
The visit provided an opportunity for both parties to explore areas of collaboration, particularly in the preservation and promotion of Nigeria’s rich cultural heritage. Arewa House, as a center for historical documentation and research, is committed to procuring, preserving, analyzing, and discussing issues of national and international interest, particularly those affecting Northern Nigeria’s development.
The successful visit marked a significant milestone in the partnership between the US Embassy and Arewa House, and is expected to yield fruitful collaborations in the future.
