The Chinese government has stated that it firmly supports the President Bola Tinubu administration following the United States’ threat of military action.
Naija News reports that the spokesperson of China’s foreign ministry, Mao Ning, made this known on Tuesday, while answering a question at a press conference regarding US President Donald Trump’s threat of military action in Nigeria over the alleged persecution of Christians.
Ning described Nigeria as a comprehensive strategic partner and warned against interference in its internal affairs.
Ning said, “As Nigeria’s comprehensive strategic partner, China firmly opposes any country using religion and human rights as an excuse to interfere in other countries’ internal affairs, and threatening other countries with sanctions and force”.
