Speakers: Dr Bonnie Ayodele, Professor Zhongying Pang

As Africa-China ties have grown tighter in the past few years, China’s engagement with the continent has evolved from being mostly economically focused to more sensitive socio-political fields. This talk provides in-depth discussion of African security issues in relation to China’s long-held non-interference policy.

Bonnie Ayodele is lecturer in the Department of Political Science at the University of Ado Ekiti, Nigeria.

Zhongying Pang is professor of international and global affairs at Renmin University of China.
