The US imposed new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5% on 60 trading partners, including Nigeria, replacing an earlier duty that expired Friday. The levies target economies deemed non-compliant with forced labour import bans, with rates varying by country and legal defensibility designed to survive court challenge.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
If you export from Nigeria or source through it, your US customer just paid 10-12.5% more for your goods, effective now. This isn't temporary: Trump's legal team built these tariffs to last, and the threat of further duties on industrial capacity keeps the pressure on.
