Mr Modi is on a State Visit to Nigeria from 17-18 November. He held official talks with Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Abuja on Sunday.
Earlier in the day, Nigeria conferred its second-highest national award, the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger (GCON), on Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his first official visit to the country.
This made PM Modi the second foreign dignitary to receive this honour after Great Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, who received the award in 1969.
Mr Modi and Mr Tinubu had a restricted meeting followed by delegation-level talks at Abuja's Aso Rock Villa, which serves as the office and residence of the Nigerian Presidency.
