If you are familiar with the country’s current economic conditions, you will also be aware that many Nigerians are emigrating to many other countries in the West and even countries within Africa—Kenya is one of the top picks for Nigerians who want to stay in the familiarity of being in Africa without being at home and enjoy the closeness to a vibrant vacation spot despite living and working from there.
Uncover, a Nigerian-Kenyan skincare brand, is a prime example of the vital link between Nigeria and Kenya. There is an urgent and continuous need for businesses to ship from Nigeria to Kenya uninterruptedly, impacting the economic relationship between the two countries.
