U.S. slams Nigeria’s import ban, says it affects American exporters

Kindly share this story

The United States has criticised Nigeria’s ban on 25 product categories, saying it hampers American exports and deepens trade tensions.

The U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) listed the restrictions—covering beef, poultry, fruit juice, pharmaceuticals, and spirits—among the top 10 unfair trade practices by foreign nations.

“These policies create significant trade barriers that lead to lost revenue for U.S. businesses looking to expand in the Nigerian market,” the USTR said in a post on X.

Nigeria is among several countries, including India, Thailand, Kenya, and the EU, cited for policies the U.S. says collectively block billions in potential exports.

India and Thailand’s restrictions on U.S. ethanol, and Kenya’s 50% corn tariff, were also flagged.

The USTR warned such practices hurt American farmers, manufacturers, and workers, linking them to job losses and factory closures.

Notably, China was criticized for undercutting U.S. flag makers, with $2 million in monthly lost sales due to Chinese imports.

The report comes as the U.S. ramps up protectionist policies under Trump’s trade agenda.
