Re-Exports in the second quarter of 2022, which stood at N9.63 billion, decreased when compared to the same quarter of 2021 (N64.39 billion) and also, in the first quarter of 2022 (N115.80 billion) by 85.05 percent and 91.68 percent respectively.

In the quarter under review, the top five re-export destinations were Cote d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Cameroun, and Turkey.
