US laments Nigeria’s import ban on key products

“Restrictions on items like beef, pork, poultry, fruit juices, medicaments, and spirits limit U.S. market access and reduce export opportunities.”

The ban placed on 25 products, a policy initially introduced by Nigeria’s central bank in 2015, blocks access to foreign exchange for a wide range of imported goods as part of a broader push to promote local manufacturing.

Premium Times Nigeria · US laments Nigeria's import ban on key products“These policies create significant trade barriers that lead to lost revenue for US businesses looking to expand in the Nigerian market”

La Banca centrale della Nigeria (#CBN) ha venduto valuta estera per un valore di quasi 200 milioni di dollari sul mercato ufficiale, intervenendo per rafforzare la liquidità dopo che la #Naira è scesa del 2,3 percento in tre giorni a seguito dei nuovi dazi statunitensi che hanno scosso i mercati globali e pesato sui prezzi del petrolio.

New blog post: I started sharing images & info from out-of-print book #NigerianPottery which contains photos of pots I haven't seen anywhere online, particularly with this level of regional detail.

Der #Dschihad breitet sich in #Afrika aus, während der #Westen die Augen verschliesst

#Dschihadisten morden, vergewaltigen, foltern, entführen, versklaven und verbrennen Menschen bei lebendigem Leib – in ganz Afrika und jetzt auch in #Syrien . Kürzlich auf X veröffentlichte Videos zeigen, dass syrische #Islamisten mit #Alawiten dasselbe tun wie die #Hamas mit #Juden , die in der Nähe von Gaza leben. Christen, Drusen und Jesiden in Syrien – wie auch ihre nicht-muslimischen oder nicht-arabischen Geschwister in Afrika – fürchten, die Nächsten zu sein.

British Nigerian artist Karl Ohiri was shocked to hear that many photographers in Lagos, Nigeria, burned their old negatives, so he embarked on a project to develop whatever he could find. Here, @thecontinent shares some of the photos that form the Lagos Studio Archives.
