Chinese people are not discriminatory- University Don

A professor of Phycology who is also the president and founder of Hope Arise Global Initiative, Professor Sunday Olabukola, has stated that Chinese people are being wrongly labelled as discriminatory, stating that nothing can be further from the truth.

He spoke against the background of recent media reports that a Nigerian was decriminated against when he was alleged ly prevented from gaining access to a Chinese supermarket located within Royal Choice estate in Abuja.

“I soncerely beleive Nigerians should stop demonising the Chinese for no just cause. I have travelled widely in China and interacted with many Chinese citizens including those resident in Nigeria. I can tell you that the Chinese are very friendly people, they are good people and are always willing to help. They are truely warm hearted. I beleive some of them are misumderstood because of language and some cultural differences. Communication sometimes is a barrier to building relationship and creating mutual understanding but once you are able to overcome this communication challenge you would discover that the Chinese are some of the most friendly and nicest people on the planet”.

There is history to support this. If you take your time to study five thousand years of Chinese history you would discover that the Chinese have never colonized other nations but have always extended hands of friendship and fellowship to other races. This is remarkable considering that the Chinese invented gunpowder an invention that could have made them belligerent towards other nations but they have chosen to remain peaceful.

Even in the modern times the Chinese with all its economic and military might within the last three decades have chosen the part of peaceful growth. It has extended its hands of friendship to fellow developing nations and through the Belt and Road Initiative, BRI is extending trade and investment to other parts of the world. In Africa, China is the main driver of the Forum Of China and Afican, FOCAC. It has through FOCAC helped Africa to develop by granting concessionary loans for the building of critical infrastructure”. He said
