#africanews #blackhistory #nigeria Imagine this for a moment. The richest man alive shows up at your doorstep. He isn’t just offering money—he’s offering billions. All he wants in return is your resources. For most countries, the answer would be obvious. A quick yes.
But Nigeria did something no one expected. When Elon Musk, the billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, tried to secure Nigeria’s lithium, the government turned him down. That’s right—Nigeria rejected a deal worth billions. A deal many thought was impossible to refuse.
And yet, only a few months later, Nigeria made a very different decision. They signed a lithium deal—but not with Musk. Instead, they chose a Chinese company. The same resource, the same billions on the line, but a completely different partner.
Why? Why would Nigeria snub Musk, the face of the West’s clean energy revolution, and instead hand over the keys to China? What did Beijing offer that Silicon Valley couldn’t?
The answer is much bigger than just one deal. It speaks to Africa’s future. A future where countries are no longer rushing to embrace Western companies, but instead turning toward new partners—partners who promise something different. Something the West never truly offered.
