He said Chinese government and Nigeria reaffirmed their respect for each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

“The Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria reaffirms that the One China policy is at the core of its strategic partnership with China.

“The Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria recognises that there is only one China in the world.

“The Government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government representing the whole of China, and that Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory,” he said.

Yi, in the statement, said the government of the People’s Republic of China appreciated Nigeria’s position and the recent measures taken accordingly by Nigeria.

“China reaffirms its commitment to actively develop China-Nigeria strategic partnership across the board,” he said.(NAN)
