I don't think there are humans any more in the white house. All I see there are vampires.

Putting Nigerian on a list that contravenes forced labor law is laughable. In Nigeria there's no forced labor but people are force to do hazardous jobs because of the high poverty rate and very low profitable jobs.

Any increase on tax tariff on Nigerian businesses Will increase the poverty rate and swell the number of people forced to do hazardous jobs because of hunger
That's the forced labour, without proper work conditions and laws backing the workers, I think the Nigerian government should regularizes Nigeria labour laws, if you don't have what it takes to pay your staff don't Open a business.

There's no force labor in naija. People are ready to do anything. Just to feed.

It's called systemic poverty.

Nigeria should as a matter of economic survival integrate deeper with BRICS.

Did you even understand what USA is trying to correct? Or is it out of pure hatred for USA that you see no good in whatsoever they do?

Chinese and Lebanese will set up a factory in Nigeria and other African countries. They will pay peanut 🥜 to these African workers and supply the same products all over the world making more profit from the sweat of Africans.

USA is saying pay your workers the global standard or we hit you with 12.5% terrif.

It's a win for African workers
Deluding yourself that Trump gives a fvvvvck about you, is the greatest delusion ever. You need to wake man

No my Friend, Trump does not give a fvvvvck about you and I but in trying to checkmate China the USA is doing African workers a lot good.

Am I wrong?

Our CEO's are greedy, pay peanut and take the big chunk without any regards 📌.
See how Chinese companies are taking advantage of the vulnerable in the society 🤷🏿.

no comment even understood the post..
Yet, people are replying out of point.

Let me break it down and add jara
US says some countries produce exported goods using slaves and forced labour employees and factory workers without full workers right and welfare considerations. [b]PURE EXPLOITATION!
( undignified employees)
and these countries pay peanut or non at all to these labourers; Thus, the goods produced by these countries and exported sell at cheaper than other countries that value employees, value factory workers and pay them well with allowances, hazard fees, insurance, etc.(dignify the employees)
Because of that, these countries that use forced labourers who work and produce goods as forced by these countries tend to export cheaper products than countries that use unforced labour and thus, value human dignity and pays commiserate wages to labourers and the employees for the goods they produce.

Unfortunately, countries like Nigeria amongst others African and European countries patronize these countries that produce these cheaper goods with forced labour as against other countries who produce are a bit expensive cuz they input the cost of dignified labourers on their products..

In the export competition market, it produces an unfair advantage on the goods and products of countries who put workers welfare at the forefront unlike the cheaper products produced by countries using forced labour without workers welfare and dignified compensation, making their goods cheaper which is unfair.

Goods produced by EXPLOITED workforce will always be cheaper than goods produced by DIGNIFIED workforce.


So Trump wants to reciprocate the unfair advantage by increasing the tariff on export product of these countries who patronize these cheap products produced with forced and undignified labour force.
Nigeria is one of them.
e.g our refined fuel export will be taxed higher, our cocoa will be taxed higher,etc unless we stop patronizing imported products produced with undignified human labour just because they are cheaper.

ILoveNG:
Just because you want to defend US, you failed to read.

Those countries including Nigeria are not being accused of Forced labor. They accused them of importing goods made with forced labor.

They are simply sanctioning those African countries because they are trading and importing from people they don’t like (China if you look closely)
My bad! But then why are you blaming a president for putting his country first? If our leaders have been doing same we would be in a position of strength when dealing with the international community. Today if USA withholds fund from WHO, Africa is in crisis.

Nigeria's future does not lie with the West. Nigeria needs to pivot East. Once we get our act together, they will beg us to come back. Then, we will barb their hair.

What does Nigeria export to the US? What product made with forced labour does Nigeria import? .... what other countries import the same? He's circling the wagon.... Nigeria ... wants to control something.. most likely oil and Dangote refinery. With dementia comes greed and the need to be in total control.

The US is totally committed to crippling economies of Africa so that they can have weak currencies favourable for Western countries to keep buying their raw materials cheap for their own industries under any made-up story undecided lipsrsealed undecided

- What does Nigeria benefit from the East compare to the West?

- The West created and sustain Nigeria for starters...

- Do you know how many Nigerians in the West with citizenship and or permanent residency who keep Nigerians in Nigeria afloat through remittances? Without some of those remittances many poor Nigerians would have either died or turned into serious crimes for survival. Even you might have been kidnapped since for ransom or for yahoo +.
