A young medical intern from Nigeria received warm welcome recently at Jilin Provincial People's Hospital in Changchun, Jilin province. His careful treatment of patients won their gratitude.

Onodu Onyebuchi Emmanuel, 25, began his studies at Changchun University of Chinese Medicine in 2016.

"I have been interested in Chinese culture since my childhood," he said, adding that China and Nigeria have good cooperative relations, and many daily necessities and clothing in the African country come from China.

"I also heard about traditional Chinese medicine before I arrived," he said. "So I decided to go to China after graduating from high school."

With a strong interest in TCM, Onodu often seeks advice from teachers and classmates on acupuncture and massage.

"During the process, I have improved my proficiency in the Chinese language," he said. "I hope to have the opportunity to make a systematic study of it."
