Nigeria Secures $1m Flood Relief Grant from China

Nigeria secured a $1 million flood relief grant from China to support emergency response and recovery efforts in states affected by recent flooding. The grant was formalized through the signing of Exchange Notes between the Federal Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning and the Chinese Ambassador to Nigeria.

The relief fund will benefit communities in Kebbi, Jigawa, Sokoto, Borno, Taraba, and Adamawa states. The grant reflects the strong bilateral relations between Nigeria and China and demonstrates China's goodwill and support for Nigeria's sustainable development.

The Nigerian government assured transparent and effective implementation of the aid to assist the affected communities.
