随着中国外长访问非洲四国,尼日利亚也派使团访问中国了。所以今天的故事还是来自尼日利亚,小伙伴不要激动,且待慢慢道来。
这几天,尼日利亚国际合作司司长约瑟夫·特格贝率领代表团访问中国,旨在深化中尼两国合作,推动经济发展与可持续进步。这一举措是尼日利亚总统蒂努布“新希望”议程的重要实践,也标志着两国关系迈向新台阶。
那蒂努布的新希望是啥,将尼日利亚定义为全球投资中心!有点那个啥,人有多大胆,地有多大产的感觉。
简而言之,尼日利亚希望吸引中国加大投资力度。在以往的新闻亦有报道。比如中尼的货币互换协议,现任总统就希望增加额度,方方面的因素可猜测代表团的本次来华目的主要是“深化两国经济合作”。
代表团首先造访了中国国家发展和改革委员会总部,双方围绕农业、能源、医疗、采矿、教育等多领域合作展开深入讨论,并与尼日利亚外交使团及中国商界人士共同探讨未来发展路径。
特格贝透露,此次访华将签署一系列战略合作协议,以助力尼日利亚在粮食安全、可再生能源开发、经济增长等方面的建设,实现多方共赢。
值得关注的是,此次合作还融入了中国“一带一路”倡议的相关项目。特格贝表示,尼日利亚希望借助中国的经验与资源,通过基础设施建设和技术引进,推动国内经济现代化,促进产业升级和多元化发展。双方的合作不仅为尼日利亚经济注入了新动力,也为地区稳定和繁荣提供了支持。
在为期多日的访问中,代表团还与中国土木工程集团、中国港湾、中国电力集团等龙头企业进行对接,未来还将访问华为、中国建筑材料公司等企业。这些企业多年来深耕非洲市场,为非洲的基础设施发展提供了宝贵经验,也为尼中双方的进一步合作奠定了坚实基础。
特格贝表示,尼日利亚政府希望通过这些合作,不仅推动国内经济发展,还着力提升青年的就业与技能水平。通过技能获取和基础设施建设等项目的推进,尼日利亚正为实现经济多元化和社会进步积蓄力量。

此前,博拉·蒂努布总统曾正式访问中国,参加中非合作论坛。中方为非洲提供约510亿美元融资,助力非洲大陆的互联互通和经济发展。这一融资承诺无疑为中非合作注入了新的活力,也为尼日利亚提供了更多发展机遇。这次派使团前来,可能是希望中国增加投资额度。
此次高层互访不仅展现了尼日利亚在全球化发展中的新定位,更为非洲与中国的合作树立了新的典范。尼中友好之路前景广阔,合作共赢的蓝图正在逐步绘就,为尼日利亚的“新希望”愿景增添了更多可能。
但是作为投资回报的话,能够想象的有:PPP模式、基建的BOT模式,以及投资建厂的直接销售。对于自然资源,其实还有矿产的合作,以及在石油和天然气的优先开采和购买权。宏观一点的回报就是有助于加强两国的友好关系,利于中国企业拓展在整个非洲大陆的投资和合作机会。
The Director-General of the Nigeria-China Strategic Partnership, Joseph Tegbe, is currently visiting China to bolster China-Nigeria relations and foster economic and sustainable development between both countries in line with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s renewed Hope agenda.
The Partnership DG, with the Nigerian delegation, on Monday was at the headquarters of the National Development and Reform Commission of the People’s Republic of China.
They were received by the NDRC Deputy Chairman, Zhao Chenxin, and other top officials, as well as the Nigerian diplomatic community and the Chinese Business Community.
Tegbe is expected to cement strategic agreements in line with President Tinubu’s vision, with China for national growth and in vital sectors of the economy such as agriculture, to boost food security, alternative energy for developing renewable energy sources, healthcare, mining for harnessing Nigeria’s mineral resources to drive economic growth, education to strengthen Nigeria institutions and promote cultural exchange.
此处省了一下拜访的行程。
This initiative comes on the heels of President Bola Tinubu’s official visit to China before the 2024 Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), where he had talks with China’s President Xi Jinping on improved economic cooperation, with the latter pledging 360 Billion Yuan, (about $51 billion), financing to African nations in the next three years, and support for 30 infrastructure projects to boost connectivity across the continent.
Last week, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi visited Nigeria to reinforce the growing partnership between China and Africa, especially Nigeria, with discussions on strengthening economic ties, enhancing security cooperation and mutual developmental goals.
As Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy, seeks to become a net exporter to China in the next five years, the consolidated partnership is aimed at playing a crucial role in achieving this goal.
The country also remains China’s major partner on the continent for trade and technology investments.
