Chinese ambassador to Nigeria, Yu Dunhai, has pledged China’s continued support for Nigeria’s fight against terrorism, following his meeting with national security adviser Nuhu Ribadu.
In a statement shared on X on Thursday, November 6, following a meeting with national security adviser Nuhu Ribadu, Dunhai said China “firmly supports” Nigeria’s efforts to achieve stability and progress through development strategies aligned with its unique national realities.
He emphasized that China stands against any external interference in Nigeria’s internal affairs, particularly those disguised as concerns over religion or human rights.
“As a comprehensive strategic partner of Nigeria, China firmly supports the Nigerian government in leading its people to a development path that fits Nigeria’s national realities,” the ambassador said.
“We oppose any country’s interference in other countries’ internal affairs under the pretext of religion and human rights. We oppose the wanton threat of sanction and use of force.
“China is willing to continue supporting Nigeria in combating terrorism and maintaining domestic stability.”
