China Loans Nigeria $328 Million To Boost Telecoms by nigeriapenbase: 7:30pm On Sep 01, 2018
President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday arrived in Beijing, China for the 7th Summit of the Forum on China —Africa Cooperation.

China’s Exim bank will lend Nigeria $328 million towards improving the west African country’s telecoms infrastructure, Nigeria’s presidency said on Saturday, at the start of a six-day visit by President Muhammadu Buhari to the country.

Poor telecoms are a major challenge for businesses operating in Nigeria, which is Africa's largest oil producer, most populous country and has one of the continent's largest economies.

The agreement, the latest in a number of Chinese loan facilities to Nigeria since Buhari took office in 2015, comes as Beijing seeks to deepen its ties in Africa.

What is wrong with telecoms? Telecoms is the backbone and foundation of tech and economic advancement, without you are going nowhere.


Looks like these old politicians are smarter and more sensible than the so called Nigerian youths.

Why telecommunication?
Its better the loan is used for electricity. One of factors causing set back in this country is the erratic power supply. If F.g can increase the supply of electricity, this will have a long effect on the cost of production which in turn will reduce prices of goods and services. Also, it will encourage locally made goods.

No wonder Nigeria's so called minister of communication & technology is an archaic goatee wielding haggard looking old man.
See how Sowore disgraced the old man during an interview sometime back.

What is China lending Nigeria money for after the useless currency swap deal she had with us that was so overhyped by this rudderless government then?

Of this loan is not interest free.What becomes of all the retrieved looted & relooted funds APC is simply mortgaging this country.

Barely 400million$ to reform telecom sector? Certainly China doesn't think we hold enough stake in Africa's telecom sector.

Nice comment. The way some youth do think makes me wonder how they get educated. Telecom is the pillar of virtually all sectors in the world.
