Do Nigerians Still Buy Anything From The UK? by EndtimeBlessing: 10:18pm On Jun 12, 2015
Every time I come to Nairaland, I see China importation business threads. Of course I understand why It has to be China. But my question is - do Nigerian businesses (traders, manufacturers or service providers) still buy anything from the UK like it was before? or Do individuals still come to the UK for shopping like before? What has been the effect of the unfavourable Naira-Pounds conversion rate?

Some experienced electricians in the generator biz do that. The 240v is more preferred here.
