President Bola Tinubu met with Chinese Foreign Minister, Wang Yi on Thursday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja during Wang’s two-day working visit to Nigeria.

Wang Yi, a senior member of the Communist Party of China, is expected to engage with the President on key topics, including the agreements signed during the 2024 Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) Summit in China.

The discussions will focus on strengthening ties in areas such as the economy, politics, and the oil and gas sectors.

After the meeting, both Nigeria’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar, and Wang Yi are set to address the press.

Attendees at the meeting included notable officials such as the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila; Minister of Information, Idris Mohammed; and Minister Yusuf Tuggar, among others.

Earlier in the day, Wang Yi was welcomed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport by Dunoma Umar Ahmed, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
