On October 9, by invitation of the University administration Martin Senkom Adamu, Charge d'Affaires of the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in Ukraine, paid a visit to Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute.  Esther Joel Sunsuwa, Head of Chancery of the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in Ukraine, accompanied him.

According to the visit program, the parties enjoyed visiting the State Polytechnic Museum of Ukraine at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and the Department of Aviation and Astronautics, watched  the presentation of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, and discussed cooperation in the field of education, 

 ‘As part of cooperation with Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, we invited the guests to jointly define areas in education that are important for the development of their country's economy, and then it will be possible to formulate which University educational programs can meet training needs for Nigeria’,  Sergii Sydorenko remarked after the meeting. ‘Training several dozen specialists for this country would become a good framework for the wider development of Ukraine's foreign economic cooperation with Nigeria.’

In his turn, Martin Senkom Adamu promised a number of measures to overcome the lack of information about Ukraine and Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in his country - cooperating with the Ministry of Education of Nigeria, attracting the media etc.

Thus, according to Sergii Sydorenko, we hope to promote the image of Ukraine and Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute abroad and increase the number of foreign citizens who will come to study at the University.

At the end of the visit, the guests went to see the Center for International Education of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, where they met with students from Nigeria who study at our university.
