Malaysia–Nigeria relations refers to bilateral foreign relations between the two countries, Malaysia and Nigeria. Both are the members of D-8 and have been diplomatic friends since early 1965 when the late Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Nigeria's first Prime Minister, became a good friend of one of Malaysia's post-independence leaders, Tunku Abdul Rahman. Nigeria has its High Commission in Kuala Lumpur while Malaysia has its High Commission in Abuja. Their relations are based on economic co-operation.[1]
