Abstract

Nigeria and the Republic of Chad are colonial creations borne out of a series of negotiations, treaties, and conquests by Britain and France respectively, in the first decade of the 20th century. The two countries share a common border of the Lake-Chad Basin, which stretches to 85 Square kilometers. Both countries obtained their political independence from their respective colonial masters in 1960 and have since been exchanging diplomatic missions and entering into various bilateral relations that border on trade, culture, education, industry, and religion with a view to promoting their mutual national interests which are central to international relations. These were not achieved without many challenges. This paper intends to examine the challenges faced in the cause of the relations between the two countries.
