Once again... Can we focus on our nations, and leave Trump alone?!!

He is not coming to power to favour any nation ahead of America.

Haven't heard Putin or Xi Jinping bitching about like you Nigerian leaders and citizens have been doing since yesterday.

You pay tax on every damn thing you buy from the market.
One of the reasons things are so expensive in the market is import duties that government keep increasing every eke market.
That is why the satchet Milo that was 25g and N20 in 2015 is now 18g and N250
But the item u mentioned is produced in Naija?

The problem is that the black man is extremely lazy minded, & lacks innovation.

I really blame the situation if things, if not… Nigeria is meant to be a force in the world to reckon with… it’s meant to be the country that other people in Africa wil be fighting to migrate to.
If not you won’t just belittle your country anyhow and think everybody in the country is a goat

Even in the US, Nigerians are in very interesting positions and are key decision makers..

Taiwo oyedele no be your mate, humble yourself and try to achieve even half of what he has achieved
Typical Nigerians. Brandishing certificates to justify lack of knowledge in international politics.

How does revamping our tax system protect us from a tariff war?

Irony,Ebola is taxing it's citizens to enriched the corrupt politicians that we spend the loots in foreign countries,while trump we tax foreign countries to enriched US citizens.There is no relationship between light and darkness
America is in a better position to tax because they have good economic of scale advantages because they produce virtually everything they need.

Wrong, most productions do not happen in america, they are happening in china and other cheap labor and low cost production countries

I hope Tinubu will not fill up his administration with quacks and imbeciles like Buhari did.

Nigeria is a consumer country who imports the only product that needs no foreign aid; crude oil.

Trump's tarrif on foreign countries has no effect on this giant nation of import

Trump is planning to make life easy for his own people by taxing other countries but our own tax government is taxing Nigerians into deeper poverty.
How do you tax other countries to make life easy for your own people?
Trump is just blustering. If China alone retaliate all the big retailers in the US will go bankrupt in less than six months.

Instead of bitching and whining about Trump, what have the Nigerian leaders done to protect the interests of the citizens against economic sabotage? Actually FG is the real threat to the Nigerian economy.

Re: Nigeria Expresses Concern Over Trump’s Tariff And Taxation On Foreign Countries by Ojuntana:
This man just keeps shooting from the hips on every issue in a bid to force his tax bills as one big deal
Donald Trump had not even been elected president when your wrote your tax bills yet you're claiming the bills will solve challenges posed by Trump's policies
Oga you need to rest
All these your claims as if tax reforms will turn Nigeria to China shows there's more than meets the eye with the bills
Re: Nigeria Expresses Concern Over Trump’s Tariff And Taxation On Foreign Countries by CyberG: 11:33pm On Jan 21, 2025
Clueless Nigerians supporting their god Trump will soon have to put their money on the line for him. If you have people who send you money from the US, Canada, Europe, etc., that will reduce or stop as they will have to spend more too (25 - 30%) on their current expenses, which will reduce their disposable income / discretionary spending! Welcome to a world of destroying oneself with short-sighted stoopidity!

There is a way out though which is mostly available only to rich folks (~12% of the US population) who own / control about 85% of the stock market or own businesses. If not, this move ensures you will be poorer and your children will inherit the debt & be further behind in life! This is before adding the burden of their student loans, and for the adults, almost no chance of qualifying for a mortgage to own a home!

So, if you’re a Trump supporter in Nigeria and you think he is doing something great, you’ve been pwned! The effects will spread to most parts of the world and you will pay by giving-up the little you get currently. The people only exceptions is if you can access (buy & sell stocks / ETFs) the US stock market and even if you can, you will need significant money to run the investments that can produce outsized returns! Buckle-up buttercups - most people are about to lose more than they bargained for!

Why worry when you say Nigerians are not exxporting anything hence the fall of naira.
The tax will affect countries that exports their good to USA massively eg China
Not ur regular 10kg Iru (locust beans) export

But you're not speaking about the increase in taxation Tinubu has brought. The inflation above 35%.

Are u not a hypocrite
He's always been one so no need for that question.

Nigeria has a lot of trade partners and options. This won't hurt that much. And it's necessary to get America back on track.

No one should blame President Trump for believing in pan-Americanism and holding American interests supreme in policy implementation within and outside America. On the contrary, most Nigerian politicians will steal the people's commonwealth and keep it in the Western vaults to subsidise the living costs of their citizens while leaving the poor Nigerians hungry and thirsty for even a meal a day. We must clap endlessly for Trump for his unwavering patriotism and determination to lead America toward socio-economic and ethical rectitude. We simply need a Nigerian TRUMP who will trumpet the citizens' interests laud and clear in policy formulation and implementation. May God enthrone such a selfless leader sooner than expected. Nigeria will surely get there!

We all saw how buhari destroyed Nigeria with tarrif war and banning food items from neighbouring countries.

The effects is what Nigeria is still suffering from and while those countries currency remain stronger.

America cannot compete with China for anything. Even Americans companies so much rely on China. Even Americans cannot afford completely made in America goods not to talk of people of other weaker currency

People occupying positions in your most populous black nation in the world (is high population also a bragging point?) behave like idiots and are rightfully regarded as such.

President Trump is taxing to enriched American citizens. While in one zoo country, the president is taxing to inpoverish the citizens to death.

There was a country
