Despite the current economic recession in the country, the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Zhou Pingjian, on Tuesday said he had been inundated with many requests by investors from his country who had been “falling over one another” to explore business opportunities in Nigeria.
According to a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, the envoy spoke when he presented his Letter of Credence to President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Pingjian was quoted as saying that the investors had been attracted by what he called the “remarkable and audacious” change process that the present administration implemented in safeguarding security, fighting corruption and restoring integrity and sanctity in all public sector transactions.
