As a country, we are grateful. Such gesture is important to us. But China really hasn't been fair to us and probably to the world. Looking at their actions, especially recently, it is not unreasonable to isolate all from China or Chinese for a year or more, and see as trojan horses, gestures like this.

Africans however are not dogs that you treat as animals and throw crumbs to, to content and get our loyalty. This won't make us forget the ill treatment or maltreatment of our brothers and sisters over there and even here. We are not an inferior race, and whether our leaders have proved otherwise or not; we the people see the Chinese for what they truly are.

We know their ambition to be not just the world superpower but also to be considered a superior race, and by their attitude and treatment of us already, Hitler's maltreatment of the Jews won't compare to what will be done with us. We know too how China treat Muslims too, and how they are taking over the super structure of our economy. And they distract us with those
merely showing off, as they do now.

Take a stand with us already against the maltreatment, inequality that has been descended upon us and show us what you said concerning the treatments of Africans over there, before giving us bones and crumbs and expecting that we also lick your feet just as our govt does. Show us, where you have rebuked your likes that have treated us badly and inhumanely.

We see through you China, and you may ask, what we can do about it as you go about making yourself indispensable; your undoing is here, in we the people. And to the Chinese in Nigeria, know that although this continues, if the ill treatment meted on Africans continue, we will be coming for you too, sooner actually, to give each man or people, his or their measure. To do just like Robert Mugabe and Muammar Gaddafi have taught us, in the peak of their strength and passion for their people.

Any purported food item or medication that is a gift from Chinese people or their government, must be regarded with EXTREME suspicion. The same Chinese who evict African immigrants to China from their homes in the dead of night, and herd them into forcible quarantine, are regrettably being accorded state welcomes in Nigeria, presumably after the usual greasing of palms modality has been performed by the Chinese, who know that every African government official, has a price that will be affordable from the standpoint of the long-term economic annexation agenda planned for Africa by the Chinese.

By way of another example, a Chinese factory in Ogun State Nigeria is currently holding their entire workforce under illegal detention in the locked and guarded facility, whereby those employees are obliged to work and live in squalid conditions, essentially as paid slaves in forcible captivity. This criminal violation of fundamental human rights by Chinese nationals operating a factory in Nigeria, illustrates the utter contempt with which Chinese people regard all black people, and the brazen disregard for the laws of the land, as evidenced by the ONGOING false imprisonment of an entire workforce by Chinese factory operators located in Ogun State Nigeria.

I would sooner try and tame a deadly Black Mamba snake in the wild, than accept ANY gift offered by a Chinese national working independently, or on behalf of the Chinese state.

Sell this country already and give everyone their share, so that we can do something else with our lives!

Is it Nigeria that we will use our lives to be worried about?
