Nigerians in China have been sharing videos on social media, alleging mistreatment in the Guangzhou area over the last two days.
On Thursday, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, held a meeting with Mr. Pingjian to discuss the issue. In a tweet, Mr. Onyeama stated that he urged the ambassador to engage with Chinese authorities to address the matter.
