Tinubu Will Visit China in September—Presidency
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

President Bola Tinubu will make a key visit to the People’s Republic of China in early September, with the goal of improving economic partnership and bringing critical investments to Nigeria.

The trip is viewed as a strategic step to boost bilateral relations between the two countries while seeking important commercial prospects. During a briefing at the State House in Abuja on Tuesday, Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, emphasised the significance of the approaching visit.

According to Ngelale, President Tinubu would visit important Chinese businesses, including Huawei and the China Rail and Construction Corporation, to expedite the completion of the Ibadan to Abuja portion of the Lagos to Kano rail project.

He further stated that Tinubu will meet with the CEOs of ten major Chinese firms, which oversee over $3 trillion in assets across industries such as ICT, oil and gas, aluminium production, seaport construction, finance, and satellite technology.

He stated that “His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will depart for the People’s Republic of China, specifically Beijing, from the nation’s capital within the first week of September, to engage in a series of meetings and activities with immediate and long-term benefits to the Nigerian economy and people.”

“First and foremost, His Excellency, Mr. President, will make site visits to two important Chinese corporations: Huawei Technologies and the China Rail and Construction Corporation. This is to achieve one of Mr. President’s top agenda items: the completion of the Ibadan to Abuja portion of the Lagos to Kano high-speed rail.

“After that, His Excellency, Mr. President, will hold meetings with ten carefully chosen CEOs of ten significant Chinese enterprises. These companies manage assets in excess of $3 trillion US dollars, spread across a variety of economic sectors, such as satellite technology development, financial services, information and communications technology, oil and gas refining, aluminium production, seaport construction, harbour construction and dredging services.

” According to Ngelale, President Tinubu and President Xi Jinping of China would have discussions and sign multiple Memoranda of Understanding to further their bilateral relations.

According to Tinubu’s spokesman, the agreements would focus on key sectors such as the green economy, agribusiness, satellite technology, media company development, blue economic initiatives, and national planning coordination.

He noted that the meeting will provide an opportunity for the two presidents to discuss broader matters of mutual interest, such as economic relationships, national, regional, and international security, and other global concerns.

Bottom Line

The inclusion of other key sectors such as ICT, oil and gas, aluminium production, and satellite technology in the discussions suggests a broad approach to diversifying Nigeria’s economy. This aligns with Nigeria’s need to expand beyond its dependence on oil revenues by tapping into technology and other emerging industries. The fact that the targeted Chinese firms collectively manage assets worth over $3 trillion highlights the potential scale of investments that Nigeria could attract through these engagements.

Furthermore, the planned signing of multiple Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) between Nigeria and China could lead to concrete partnerships and projects in areas critical to Nigeria’s development, such as the green economy, agribusiness, and national planning coordination.

These MoUs could also open avenues for collaboration in global and regional security matters, which is important given Nigeria’s role in West African stability.
