Is it impossible for Africa countries to trade among themselves instead of these embarrassments from America??

Why would you want to box yourself in when you have goods and you have people that have money to pay for the goods??

mannobi:

Yea but aside Nigeria, no other country in Africa can contain our goods due to population.

More export, more money. Countries like Ghana will not make us to generate enough funds selling our crude to them.

Or they can trade with other European and Asian countries and avoid USA

Guess what this means to Nigerian GDP?

They can and should. But that won't be enough. Isolating yourself has never brought prosperity to anyone. We need access to the major world markets. And, no, this is not an embarrassment.

wahala. Well we also put tarrifs on good and cars coming from the US so serves us right.

HEAVEN4444:
Llol Trump will destroy America. He is a kgb agent47

Did Nigeria not out tarrifs on cars and goods coming from US??

Trump, Buhari, Tinubu are all mumu men. Was this how Europeans developed their continent? Was this how America rose to the top? Small local businessman will give these so called leaders wines and press money for and they will be running to ban import. If everyone decides to ban imports shey na cow we go dey ride on

Una still de do this t hing for 2025?

The purchasing power of one US citizen is more than that of 100 randomly picked Nigerians put together. Get sense, this is 2025

Hmmmn, overhyped US citizens, as if everyone in the so called America lives above average. I wonder why they could not afford apple products made in their own soil, but the ones contracted out to the Chinese. Many countries have better purchasing power than the said US. I'm conscious of my response to people, I don't insult people over their opinion. That's maturity.

Don't be silly, the things we supply to them are not grown there. Anyone that says don't buy from Ghana even when what you are buying from them is something you can't produce is simply a sadist.

Credit! How many Americans can pay cash! They alway owe!

Americans spend their future and why they have an edge.
$18 trillion consumer debt tells you all.

because they are rich

Raph82:
Hell will not let loose if they don't export to the US. Find other countries to export to. It's that simple. Don't let US hold U into ransome. By the way, US population is not up to 400 million, how come every other nation is targeting US for their products?

The answer to the last part of the question you raised is because US is the number 1 economy in the world where majority of the population of 400m can afford the basic needs of life, contrast this with the situation of Nigeria where majority of the 200m population are either below the poverty line or just living from hand to mouth.
If you ship your goods to US , you stand a higher chance of selling it than in any other country because there's not just the population but a buoyant population that can afford it. But if you ship to a country like Nigeria where they are struggling to feed, you will have few people that can afford it because they are still battling with the basic needs of life.
It's often said that the majority of the African robust population is just a waste because they are unproductive.

Very soon tinubu will travel to America to beg trump, Africa own no like that.

Reason I love the president of bokinafaso Traore

Among all the items banned from importation into Nigeria,list single one that we are self sufficient in its production!!

Even fuel that is the power house is still very volatile in prices…it’s this same thinking that has led us to where we are today!!
better stick to what you know and understand,and leave economy md politics for people who understand it..

Purchasing power obviously.

Fellow Africans needs these items more than those whiteheads. Africa mentality would not allow us to reason logically. Very anyhow Homo sapiens

Which item was banned that we don't produce? Americans don't produce ugwu or egusi or beans. If they do will Nigerians not very happily buy it at .ore affordable prices? When furniture importation was banned, there was an automatic boom in the furniture industry. IS Jerked tariff on Chinese imports and suddenly realized they couldn't do without many Chinese hoods so they withdrew the tariffs.😄 Frustrating imports into your country when you clearly can't produce those goods is pure sadism

When apc was increasing import duties on cars, some people were hailing them

You are clearly contradicting yourself,is this not what I have been trying to say?….is there any item that was banned that we are self sufficient in its production?
You don’t frustrate importation when you are not yet self sufficient,as simple as ABC.

VERY GOOD.
RETURN THE GOODS TO THE SYSTEM AND MAKE EVERYTHING CHEAPER FOR NIGERIANS IN NIGERIA.

I am not contradicting myself, you are confusing yourself! I don't care about self sufficiency, if you have the capacity to produce enough, we can stop importation, if we don't produce it and can't produce it then we import.

NO NATION IS EVER SELF SUFFICIENT,even the almighty USA..Don’t you get that part?

Again,is there anything we banned it’s importation that we are self sufficient in its production? Just name ONE….it was wrong to ban importation of certain items!
