Zheng Xiaopeng, CEO and Publisher of Africa China News (ACN), has expressed interest in collaborating with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) to promote cultural exchange between Nigeria and China.
Xiaopeng said this when he paid a courtesy visit to NAN’s Managing Director, Malam Ali Muhammad Ali, in Abuja.
He highlighted ACN’s mission to provide accurate news, insightful analysis, and cultural exchange programmes fostering mutual understanding and cooperation between the two nations.
“Our mission at ACN is to provide accurate and timely news, insightful analysis, and cultural exchange programmes that foster mutual understanding and cooperation between Nigeria and China.
“We seek NAN’s partnership as a respected media leader in Nigeria; your guidance and expertise will be invaluable in helping us achieve our goals,” Xiaopeng said.
Xiaopeng, who has been in Nigeria for over 10 years and has visited about 20 states, aimed to promote cultural exchange and bilateral relations.
“China is my first home, and Nigeria is my second home. I enjoy Nigerian culture and am a chief from Yoruba and Igbo land,” he added.
In response, Ali expressed NAN’s willingness to partner with ACN, citing the agency’s commitment to fostering bilateral relations with strategic countries like China.
Ali, who was represented by Mr Ephraims Sheyin, Editor-in-Chief of NAN, said that the management of NAN was anxious to support initiatives that promoted Nigeria’s cultural heritage and togetherness.
“NAN is Africa’s largest news content provider with over 3,000 clients.
“NAN provides various services, including general news, SMS news, economic news, sports news, foreign news, and press wire services.
“We have offices in all 36 states in Nigeria, with district offices and correspondents,” he said.
Ali promised that NAN’s marketing department would work closely with ACN to subscribe to its services and enrich their content.
“Once you get our services and bulletins, they will sincerely enrich everything you want to publicise,” he said.
NAN reports that ACN’s core mandate includes promoting cultural engagement, cultural arts, cultural exchange programmes, and heritage preservation between China and African countries.(NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
