It is purely a portfolio restructuring activity.   Nigeria's new Debt Management Strategy has main goal, the re-balancing of public debt portfolio in favour of long-term external debt.  What this means is we're going to be replacing domestic debt—which is mostly short-term—with cheaper & longer-term external debt  The $3bn of the $5.5bn is solely for the purpose of this refinancing/re-balancing of our debt portfolio.
