Abstract

This paper examines the contributions of China-Nigeria cooperation to the development of education in Nigeria. The study utilizes secondary data sourced from government documents, print resources, and online publications. Through content analysis, the literature was focused on the study's key themes. The findings indicate that the Chinese government has significantly contributed to the Nigerian education sector through financial aid, facilities development, capacity-building programs for teachers, and the provision of instructional materials. These contributions have not only addressed infrastructural deficiencies but have also enhanced the quality of education by incorporating modern teaching methods and materials. Furthermore, the collaboration has facilitated cultural exchanges, which enrich the educational experience and foster mutual understanding between the two nations. The paper recommends that the Nigerian government strengthen its bilateral relations with China to further support and develop the tertiary education sector. By leveraging these international partnerships, Nigeria can continue to improve its educational infrastructure, teacher training programs, and overall quality of education, thus fostering a more robust and competitive academic environment.
