The Federal Government has summoned the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Zhou Pingjian, over the alleged maltreatment of Nigerians in Guangzhou, China.
Some Nigerians are among Africans accusing Chinese authorities of maltreatment and racism in the enforcement of restrictions due to the coronavirus.
An investigation by KAFTANPost, however, reveals otherwise as the said Nigerians defied the orders and continued their normal lives even as positive carriers.
Foreign Affairs Minister of Nigeria, Geoffrey Onyeama, on Thursday, met with Pingjian to discuss the issue.
Onyeama, on his Twitter handle, said expressed the concern of the Nigerian government over the allegations of maltreatment.
He called for the immediate intervention of the Chinese Government on the issue.
“Invited the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Zhou Pingjian to communicate Nigeria’s extreme concern at allegations of maltreatment of Nigerians in Guangzhou, China and called for immediate Chinese Govt. intervention,” he tweeted.
