The Chinese government has issued a strong warning against any form of external interference in Nigeria’s domestic matters.
China also declared its full support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration and its chosen development path.
Speaking at a press briefing on Tuesday, Mao Ning, spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, reaffirmed Beijing’s position as Nigeria’s comprehensive strategic partner.
She stated that China “resolutely opposes the use of religion or human rights as pretexts to intrude into the internal affairs of sovereign nations or to impose sanctions and military threats.”
Her comments came in response to remarks reportedly made by former US President Donald Trump, who threatened possible military action against Nigeria over alleged religious persecution.
