China backs Nigeria, warns against foreign interference
China has urged the international community to respect Nigeria’s sovereignty following a US threat of military action.
The Chinese government reiterated its support for President Bola Tinubu’s administration, commending the government for guiding the country along a development path tailored to its national conditions.
According to a report sourced from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, People’s Republic of China’s website, the Spokesperson for China’s Foreign Ministry, Mao Ning, stated this at a press briefing on Tuesday in Beijing.
She said, “As Nigeria’s strategic partner, China opposes any attempt by foreign powers to use religion or human rights as a pretext to meddle in another country’s internal affairs or impose sanctions and military threats.”
Recently, the US threatened Nigeria with possible military action due to the alleged persecution of Christians in the country.
