NIGERIA: Chinese factories torched

Last week several Chinese-owned factories and shops were torched by angry masses in the Free-Trade-Zone of Ogun-Guangdong in Nigeria.

Not much is known about the incident itself. Allegedly the fighting was preceded by chauvinist attacks on African migrants in China. It is also not possible to give precise information about the caused amount of damage caused; some media speak of 2 billion dollars. But what is certain is that attacks on imperialism are always right.
