Police Minister, Maigari Dingyadi hosted Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Cui Jianchun at the Ministry Headquarters in Abuja.<\/p>\n

Dingyadi said the world was aware that Africa\u2019s most populous nation faces serious security problems.<\/p>\n

He cited terrorism and banditry in the North, the secessionist movement in the South-East, kidnapping and other criminal activities across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigeria is not the only country facing these problems in Africa, our neighbouring countries also share in these problems with us\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

Dingyadi noted that with the support of the international community, Nigeria should be able to solve the problems.<\/p>\n

He said security cannot be separated from poverty and unemployment and assured that the federal government was doing its best through poverty alleviation programmes.<\/p>\n

The Minister told Nigerians that the security of lives and properties was the responsibility of everyone and urged them to share information and intelligence gathering that would assist security agencies.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, Cui Jianchun said China and Nigeria have had a profound diplomatic relationship for the past 50 years.<\/p>\n

The envoy stressed the need for both countries to work together to improve bilateral relations and intelligence sharing.<\/p>\n

Cui Jianchun emphasized priority areas, adding that the first is infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe second is about Information and Communication Technology (ICT), China is taking the lead in 5G technology and really has a great impact in every way of life and industries. I think both countries can work together to bring more investment\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
