6:19Now PlayingChina is one of Nigeria's major trading partners as most small and large scale entrepreneurs depend on general imports from the country to thrive.
With the lock-down experienced in some parts of China, there are concerns that Nigeria's economy could be affected since imports have stopped coming in due to the pandemic.
