FULL LIST: Trump imposes new 15 percent tariff on Nigeria, others
US President Donald Trump has officially imposed a new 15% import tariff on Nigeria and several other African countries, including Zimbabwe, Zambia, Uganda, Mozambique, Mauritius, Ghana, Malawi, Lesotho, and Madagascar.
This development was announced in an Executive Order issued by the White House on Thursday, titled “Further modifying the reciprocal tariff rates.”
According to the order: “These modifications shall be effective with respect to goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m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 Executive Order also included varied tariff rates for other countries. South Africa, Libya, and Tunisia were each hit with higher rates—30% for South Africa and Libya, and 25% for Tunisia. Other non-African nations affected by the revised tariffs include the United Kingdom (10%), India (25%), and Japan (15%).
