The largest African community in China is the Nigerian community, followed by the Malian community. The Nigerian migrant community acts as a bridge between Nigerians, local Chinese communities, the Chinese government and the Nigerian embassy in China. The community also fills in a lot of gaps for Nigerian citizens in China. They have a constitution, an elected President General, an informal justice system with elected and respected judges, a task force, as well as well-organized procedures for issues like complaints and dispute resolution within the community. These institutional arrangements are binding to the community and its members, and mimic Chinese legal norms to avoid conflict with Chinese laws. –The Republic/
