Bauchi Governor Appoints Chinese National As Economic Adviser by Maxymilliano(op): 12:32pm On Aug 15, 2025

Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed has appointed a Chinese national, Mr. Li Zhensheng as Economic Adviser to the state government.

Mohammed announced this during the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the China Global Promotion Cooperation Research Centre in Bauchi on Thursday.

The governor said the move will position Bauchi State as a rising hub of international cooperation, with the long-term partnership expected to accelerate investment, infrastructure development, and bilateral collaboration across sectors such as agriculture, education, healthcare, manufacturing, mining, oil and gas, and trade facilitation.

“As part of the deal, a Bauchi State Representative Office will be established in China to oversee project implementation and ensure timely delivery,” the governor stated.

He added that the partnership aligned with the diplomatic framework between President Xi Jinping of China and President Bola Tinubu of Nigeria, designed to strengthen relations at both national and subnational levels.

The MoU outlines a framework for cooperation, with specific project agreements to be developed on a case-by-case basis.

“This agreement is not just about infrastructure—it’s about transforming lives. We are opening Bauchi to the world,” he said.

He added that the collaboration would boost foreign direct investment, create jobs, enhance skills, modernise key sectors, and improve Bauchi’s global visibility.

Zhensheng, who is the Chairman of the China Global Promotion Cooperation Research Centre, vowed that the Centre’s is committed to mobilising global resources to support Bauchi’s economic transformation.

“We are committed to helping Bauchi achieve sustainable growth, modern infrastructure, and improved livelihoods,” he said.

Gradually states are begining to find their feet. This what I have always prayed for, that each state should be independent minded. Thinking of how to build and develop their state

As far as the Chinese can get the job done with results seen, I am ok with it. Gone are days when you employ family and friends who knows nothing about their portfolio.

Not about tribe. Since the Blackman has failed to create enviable living standards, maybe the Chinese with their high IQ mindset will. All tribes in Nigeria reason the same, no over think am.

It's even high time Nigerians started thinking in the direction of getting foreigners to manage this country and its resources.

Isn't God wonderful?Imagine Tinubu being pilloried daily for not appointing enough people that are other tribes only to go and appoint a Chinese. The problem for these guys is just that they don't want Tinubu in power, not what he's doing. An anti Tinubu person above called this a masterstroke.

This is a positive news. Just as Nigerians are getting political appointments abroad. In fact, this will make the Chinese to take his job seriously without any entitlement. Congratulations to the Chinese.

If I'm to govern a state or head a government economic parastatal, I would do the same. Appoint East Asians to run everything. No Nigerian would be there. The East Asians report only to me.
