Abstract: The economic boom of China has placed her as a major player in the corridors of world
economy. China has grown to become the largest economy in the world by GDP PPP and
Second largest by GDP nominal. She is the world largest exporter and also one of the largest
Foreign Direct Investors in the world. This profile is of great and significant importance to
Africa that happens to share same Global South status with China. In the spirit of south-south
cooperation, China considers herself blessed to be a blessing to other developing countries in the
world. China's engagement with Africa after the cold world era presents both opportunities and
challenges to Africa. Through trade, Foreign Direct Investment, Development aid and military
assistance, China has overtaken the western countries in being at the lead in the development of
post cold war Africa. China has overtaken western economies as Africa's largest trading partner
with the engagement cutting across natural resources extraction, agriculture, manufacturing and
investment. Africa engages with China freely without fear of ideological infiltration, hence she is
more receptive to China than the west and this is because, unlike the western economies, China
does not attach conditionalities and political interest to her loans and development aids to Africa.
This paper examines how the china engagement with Africa since the end of the cold war has so
far contributed to the development of Africa. The paper indentified the threats and opportunities
in the China-Africa engagement and also advanced some recommendations for policy option.
