The Embassy of Nigeria in Beijing is the anchor of one of Nigeria's most strategically important bilateral relationships. China is Nigeria's largest foreign investor and a top trading partner — major Belt and Road Initiative infrastructure projects (rail, ports, power, urban development) operate across Nigeria — and the Embassy in Beijing manages the political, economic, security and consular dimensions of that relationship from its Chaoyang District location.
