What do African Citizens of Different Income Levels think of Chinese Investment? 2015-2019 A study of three countries in Africa

Abstract

This study focused on determining the relationship between occupation, education and perception on Chinese investment in Kenya, Senegal and Nigeria. It used a combination of qualitative and quantitative research to determine conclusions. The qualitative research focused on interviews and personal one on one interactions with Africans. The author used publicly available Afrobarometer data for the quantitative study. The results of the study indicate that there is a correlation between occupation and perception on Chinese influence for all three countries. However, there was no conclusive evidence that there was correlation between education and perception of Chinese influence.
