| Description: | There have been reports of Johnson’s attempts to make energy deals with countries in the Middle East, following the energy crisis caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But we could find no evidence the prime minister had made similar overtures to Nigeria. Britain was not in recession as of March 2022. While Johnson may have been courting Middle Eastern oil-producing countries, we could not tie this to Nigeria or conditions in southeast Nigeria. |
