The President of the United States (US), Donald Trump, has officially imposed a 15 percent tariff on Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Uganda, Mozambique, Mauritius, Ghana, Malawi, Lesotho, Madagascar, and other African countries.

In a statement issued by the White House on Thursday in an Executive Order, titled “Further Modifying the Reciprocal Tariff Rates.”

“These modifications shall be effective with respect to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m.” the statement reads.

The US also imposed different degrees of tariffs on South Africa (30 percent), Libya (30 percent), and Tunisia (25 percent).

The list of tariffs also contained the United Kingdom (10 percent), India (25 percent), Japan (15 percent), and other countries.

Recall that on April 2, 2025, the US, in an Executive Order, announced the imposition of import tariffs on countries across the world, Nigeria included.

I didn't see Nigeria on his list for 15% on CNN website.

Nigeria is likely 10% which he claimed as tariffs on countries which his country has a surplus with. His country exports more to Nigeria than Nigeria imports.

His country is not among our top 3 trading nations. We are more of BRICS + Italy+ Spain + Netherlands trading nation.

Nigeria got 15%..... punishment for aligning with the BRICS, most likely.

Inflation and more inflation, more people will sink into poverty with this new tax tariff by Trump, that doesn't know what he is doing. It will affect us in Nigeria because of Home depots, copart, auctionnow, Walmart, best buys and so on that comes to Nigeria.
