Envoy Raises Hope On Nigeria-Korea Ties
South Korean Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Kim Pan-kyu, has said relations with Nigeria would be one of its most vibrant economic partnerships in the nearest future. Ambassador Kim spoke at the 2024 Korea National Day reception in Abuja, in commemoration of Korea’s independence in 1919.
Nigeria-Korea trade relations increased by 55 percent in the third quarter of 2024, with exports from Nigeria to Korea rising by 91 percent. With the Korean government’s commitment to increase its Official Development Assistance (ODA) funding to $10bn by 2030, as well as provide $14bn to Africa-based Korean companies by 2030, Kim said they would catalyse projects for cooperation with Africa, especially Nigeria.
“Since Nigeria is a leading economy and the biggest market in Africa, I believe that the partnership between Korea and Nigeria will be one of the most vibrant ones in the years to come,” said the ambassador.
The Ambassador said he was excited with the level of acceptance of Korean culture, especially its music by Nigerians. According to him, there was a huge potential for cooperation between the two countries in the creative economy. Pankyu said: “When I first came to Abuja earlier this year, I was pleasantly surprised by Nigerian people’s high interest in Korean culture, such as Korean language, K-drama, K-pop and K-food.
“I had an opportunity to observe a K-food contest in Abuja and was deeply impressed by the Korean foods made by Nigerian chefs. When I observed the Taekwondo championship in Abuja recently, I had a feeling that in a few years, the number of gold medals that Korean athletes win at the Olympics may decrease due to brilliant Nigerian athletes.
