A 2026 Report By Center for Contemporary China-Africa Research in Nigeria
China as an emerging global power has greatly challenged the unipolar world as well as its accompanying perpetual tendencies in international relations, most especially looking for ways to strengthen the developing nations. Under Xi Jinping political leadership, China employed a diplomatic model of economic cooperation, strategic partnership, non-interference in domestic affairs, and mutual development. One of the key aspects of his foreign policy is his focus on economic integration and cooperation, including the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which aims to expand China’s economic influence in the countries involved. This strategy has enhanced China’s footprint in Africa, putting Nigeria among China’s major strategic partners in Africa.
