Good news! The Chinese Government has donated medical
equipment to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in support of the fight against
COVID-19 in Nigeria.
Ambassador to Nigeria, Zhuo Pingjian, while delivering the medical items at the
ministry in Abuja, said the outbreak of COVID-19 has posed threats to people’s
health and security of lives globally.
According to him, it has become important for the international community to
strengthen confidence, act in unity and work together in collective response
against the disease spread.
Pingjian said: “At the most difficult moment in our fight against the outbreak,
China received a strong political support and assistance in various means from
Nigeria.
“Such expression of friendship will always be remembered and cherished by the
Chinese people, as a Chinese saying goes: ‘Give a plum in return for a peach.

assist if needed, to the best of its capacity.

response to COVID-19 challenge with a view to building community of shared
health for mankind.”

would try its best to support Nigeria too to overcome difficulties in its fight
against COVID-19.
