During his official visit to China, Nigeria's Foreign Minister Yusuf Maitama Tuggar said that the China-Africa cooperation framework, as represented by the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation and the Belt and Road Initiative, has provided rare development opportunities for a broad range of African countries, including Nigeria, in an exclusive interview with CGTN's China Africa Talk host Bridget Mutambirwa.

Nigeria is currently cooperating with China on new energy vehicles and the digital economy. Tuggar also said in the future, cooperation between the two sides will develop towards the entire industrial chain, including the manufacture of electric vehicles, thus providing important support for Nigeria's industrial upgrade.
