| dc.description.abstract | This article sets out to look at the belt and road initiative promoted by China which is said to be a dream come true for African countries and Nigeria by its promoters. The policy tailored towards the dependency posture that stands as to bring Nigeria’s development towards the Chinese initiative. It establishes that by the Chinese government efforts in implementing the infrastructural developmental policies gives an undue advantage to China over Nigeria that is supposed to be the main beneficiary of the policy. The gains of the policy towards Nigeria s infrastructural development looks tempting on the surface, but the reality is that die adverse effect of the policy on Nigeria’s economic development cannot be overlooked. It observed that the intent and purpose of China in Nigeria under the belt and road ini dad ve seems to have the interest of Nigeria at heart without also stating the intent of the Chinese government who seems to be on a rescue mission towards Nigerian developmental pursuit. Both primary' and secondary method of data collection was adopted in the study. The study is looking at the intent of China in her infrastructural development bid in Nigeria whether is for the benefit if Nigeria or another imperialism by China. The study recommended that the terms and conditions of the belt and road initiative promoted by China in Nigeria must be clearly stated to avoid any form of ambiguity' that may plunge the country into another circle of imperialism. | en_US |
