Nigeria’s university starts degree program in Chinese language
At least 25 students have been admitted into
the University of Lagos in southwestern
Nigeria to study the Chinese language at
degree level in the institution, a top official
has said.
Duro Oni, the university deputy chancellor in
charge of management services, disclosed
this while speaking at the annual Confucius
Institute spring festival gala held to celebrate
the Chinese lunar New Year on Wednesday.
Oni told Xinhua that the students would be
required to spend the first year in Nigeria
while the second and third years of the
course would be observed at a university in
China, adding that the fourth and final year
would be observed in Nigeria to complete the
proficiency program in the Chinese language.
He said learning to speak the language
became necessary because China had
become the new destination for economic
growth and technology development.
The deputy chancellor added that the
program would bring about effective
communication between nationals of the two
countries.
