NYCN Ambassador, Akpehe
The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) Diaspora Ambassador to China, and Chairman of Hunan Galaxy Global Trade Development, Mr. Austin Akpehe, said he has concluded a high-level diplomatic visit to Hunan Superwatt Power Equipment Manufacturing Company in a bid to bolster both industrial growth and the burgeoning sports infrastructure sector in Africa.
Akpehe said his meeting with General Manager Mr. Ma Xiaoguang and Translation Assistant Ms. Vivi, signaled a major step forward in the proposed Nigeria-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
The businessman cum sports administrator explained in a statement that even as the core of the negotiations focused on trade expansion in Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the implications for sports are significant.
He said “Energizing sports infrastructure reliable power remains the backbone of modern sports development.
“As Nigeria and the DRC look to host more international tournaments, the need for advanced power solutions—such as those manufactured by Superwatt—is critical for stadium lighting, digital broadcasting hubs and athletes training facilities.”
According to the president of Galaxy Sports Academy, the push to align these trade talks with the China-Africa Economic and Trade Cooperation Expo framework suggests a future where African sports arenas are powered by cutting-edge, sustainable technology.
Akpehe emphasized that this partnership moves beyond diplomatic rhetoric to a practical, youth-centric model.
“By bringing Superwatt’s technical expertise to Africa, the initiative aims to address the systemic barrier of “power instability” that often hinders the hosting of major continental tournaments,” he reiterated.
