Latvian ambassadorship

During his undergraduate education at the University of Notre Dame, Lanlehin formed a close friendship with Christopher Doughty, nephew of Latvian Secretary of State Andris Teikmanis. In recent years Lanlehin has worked toward fostering Latvian-Nigerian relations, and after visiting Latvia and meeting Teikmanis, helped organize a Latvian trade mission to Nigeria that resulted in a pledge toward greater trade partnership between the two countries.[5]
