Femi Gbajabiamila, the leader of the House of Representatives, has written a letter to the president of China, Xi Jingping.
According to reports, Gbajabiamila wrote in respect of an earlier letter by Governor Ayodele Fayose urging the Chinese government to decline request of financial assistance from Nigeria.
The House leader in a letter dated April 18, wrote, “I am sure the letter written to you by the governor will probably receive little (if any) attention from your high office, assuming it even gets to you.
“Mr. President, Nigeria as you well know is not a project as erroneously described by the governor, but a nation like all others in the comity of nations.
“It is also a federal republic operating under the principles of administrative and fiscal federalism. The duties and responsibilities of a governor are clearly spelt out in the Nigerian Constitution and they do not include negotiating loans on behalf of the country nor do they extend to foreign affairs or economic diplomacy,” the House leader wrote.
