Chima Onuoha2 1Doctoral Candidate, Department of Management, University of Port Harcourt | Email: [email protected] 2Professor of Management, Department of Management, University of Port Harcourt | Email: [email protected] Abstract: This paper inspects the Impact of Chinese Investment on Trade Development in Nigeria. The engagement among Nigeria and China depends more on economic ties, trade, investment and finance than on political affinity. There has been some evidence that Nigeria had made positive upgrades which have been profoundly appealing to overseas investors, especially the Chinese investors. For this to continue, it was recommended that Nigeria’s priority should be to build up the ability to better its own policies towards China’s engagement and also see China’s engagement gives it an opportunity to expand its trade. Keywords: Nigeria, China, Trade and Investment, Lagos, Kano INTRODUCTION Over the previous decades the volume of exchange between countries of the globe has considerably increased. Especially, Nigeria has seen a sharp ascent in trade and investment with other countries. The relations among Nigeria and the people’s republic of China, which cuts across trade, investment, political aid and military spheres have tremendously grown in recent years (Omoju and Adesanya, 2012). China’s first contact with Nigeria, unofficially, started in the 1950s, precisely 1957. Nigeria’s contact with China was through Egypt.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic, mechanical, photocopying, or otherwise, without the prior permission of the copyright owner. © Olusegun Osoba and Yusufu Bala Usman ISBN e-book edition 978-574-69-1-4 First printed January 2019 i Dedication In memory of Yusufu Bala Usman and other fallen heroes of the struggle for a better Nigeria. ii Acknowledgements The publication of this book had its genesis in 2017, even before the creation of the Yusufu Bala Usman Institute, while some of us were associated with Ceddert. The initial idea came from Attahiru Bala Usman, who mentioned that people had been asking him where they could get copies of this rare but well known manuscript which was virtually impossible to obtain. It lay on shelves of activists and scholars since its initial launching as a mimeographed document in 1976 but had never been published. Thus we began the journey of reviving the document and getting it into print. First of all, we were not sure of the whereabouts of Dr. Segun Osoba, particularly since General Olusegun Obasanjo had pronounced him dead in his memoirs, My Watch, where he mentioned that both of the authors of the Minority Report were no longer alive. Fortunately we found that Dr. Osoba was very much alive and living in Ijebu Ode.
