The United States of America has stated that the increasing partnership between China and Nigeria is not a threat to their trade relations with Nigeria and other African countries.

Linda Thomas-Greenfield said: ”The opportunities are there, there is enough space for investors in the Africa continent. It is not a competition.

”My advice to the African countries is that their growth and development should reflect on their vision as it is important for them to partner with countries that will help them develop.”

Recall that the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Gu Xiaojie, recently said that Nigeria-China trade volume exceeded $13 billion in 2015.

“Nigeria is China’s largest engineering contracted projects market in Africa; Nigeria is the second largest export market of China in Africa and Nigeria is also the third biggest trading partner and major investment destination in Africa,” the envoy stated.
