By Michael Onjewu, Abuja

The Director-General of the Nigeria-China Strategic Partnership (NCSP), Joseph Tegbe, has on behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu extended good wishes to the people of China and the Chinese community in Nigeria on the celebration of the Lantern Festival which comes after the Chinese Lunar New Year.

This stems from the strong economic and bilateral relations between Nigeria and China, which has manifested in the strong commitment to advancing economic and infrastructural development in the country.

Tegbe, in his celebratory message, conveys the wish of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the good people of Nigeria to his Chinese counterpart, through the Nigeria-China Strategic Partnership.

The NCSP DG, wishes the Chinese community in the country a happy celebration, with love and happiness, as the Lunar Year ushers in good tidings that resonates with the diplomatic ties between both countries.

He prays that the Lantern Festivity brings prosperity, good fortune, and joy to the people of China and the Chinese community in Nigeria.

The DG also expressed his delight at the hospitality of the Chinese business community, during his recent visit to China for expansion of Nigeria’s economic and business growth.

The trip which resulted in a series of talks with leading Chinese Corporations, Banks, and Business leaders to review the priority of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) projects and explore various funding options for accelerated delivery, was very successful.

While in China, Tegbe bolstered strategic agreements in vital sectors of the economy, and the support for Nigeria’s economic diversification plans, infrastructure development, technology transfer, and job creation, for mutually beneficial collaboration between the two nations.

The Lantern Festival, also known as the Spring Lantern Festival, is a Chinese festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunar Chinese calendar. This marks the final day of traditional Chinese New Year celebrations. Over time, it has become the most popular lantern festival and light event in China.
