JUST IN: FG dismisses media reports, says 'We didn't cut ties with Taiwan'

THE Nigerian Government has dismissed media reports that it has cut ties with Taiwan.

This was disclosed in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja by the  Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President, Garba Shehu.

The statement read: “The correct position is that the official relationship between Nigeria and Taiwan has been at the level of trade representation and this has not changed from what it used to be.

“Taiwan trade office is the only Taiwanese representation in Nigeria and Nigeria’s trade office in Taipei is our only representation in Taiwan.

 

“Nigeria recognises and will sustain the ‘One China’ policy and nothing has happened so far to change that level of relationship.”
