Presidential aides Bayo Onanuga and Temitope Ajayi on Friday visited Kisarazu, the Japanese city recently designated as a settlement hub for Nigerians.

The visit came after the conclusion of the ninth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD9), during which Japan formally announced Kisarazu as Nigeria’s symbolic hometown.

Onanuga, in a post on X, highlighted the city’s historic ties to Nigeria, recalling that it hosted the country’s Olympic team during the Tokyo 2021 Games.

He wrote: “After the closing ceremony of TICAD9, we went on a voyage of discovery to Kisarazu, the town the Japanese have designated as Nigeria’s hometown. Nigeria’s Olympic team camped here in 2021. The video shows the city centre, where the Mayor Watanabe’s office is also located.”

The development is seen as a cultural bridge, strengthening Japan-Nigeria relations and providing a symbolic base for Nigerians in Japan.
