President Muhammadu Buhari jetted back into the
country in the early hours of this morning after spending six days in China to
strengthen bilateral and economic relations between the two countries.
President
Buhari was received at the airport by the Chief of Staff to the President, Mr
Abba Kyari and the Inspector General of Police, Mr Solomon Arase.
Despite
criticisms for his frequent overseas trip, President Buhari said his one week
trip to China had yielded over $6bn additional investments to Nigeria.
A
statement by the Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu
said the several agreements concluded with the Chinese during the visit will
have a “huge and positive impact on key sectors of the Nigerian economy
including power, solid minerals, agriculture, housing and rail transportation”.
He
added that “about 100 Nigerian businesses and 300 Chinese firms participated in
the Nigeria-China business forum” which took place as part activities marking
the President’s trip.
