LIVE: China’s Oil Shipment Blocked Amid Niger, Benin Faceoff | Firstpost Africa
Welcome to Firstpost Africa with Alyson Le Grange.
We are live from Durban, South Africa.
In West Africa, neighbours Benin and Niger are at loggerheads over a border feud. China’s first shipment of crude from Niger was blocked due to the ongoing crisis between the two African neighbours. Benin is preventing Niger from using its port to export its first crude oil. Benin is demanding that landlocked Niger re-open its border if it wants to use Benin’s port to export crude. Benin says Niger is treating it like an enemy and is not cooperating to restore ties or normalise trade.
