Nigeria’s N2.5trn mall economy hit as Shoprite shuts stores

Nigeria’s mall economy, valued at about N2.5 trillion, has suffered a major setback following the complete shutdown of Shoprite outlets across the country. The popular retail chain, which once served as the main anchor tenant for many shopping malls, had been struggling in recent months with empty shelves and partial closures before finally going dark. Shoprite’s exit leaves a huge gap for mall owners, property developers and smaller retailers who depended on the supermarket’s strong foot traffic to drive sales. Experts say vacancy rates in major malls are likely to rise, while many support businesses such as boutiques, restaurants and service outlets may see lower patronage or be forced to shut down. The closures come after a prolonged period of operational challenges for Shoprite, including high operating costs, supply chain disruptions, naira depreciation and weak consumer purchasing power. Several outlets […]

Ghana to import fuel from Dangote refinery

The Government of Ghana has pledged to start importing petroleum products from the Dangote Petroleum Refinery in Lagos, Nigeria, as part of plans to strengthen energy security and cut costs.​ Ghana’s Energy Minister, Matthew Opoku Prempeh, gave the assurance during a visit to the 650,000 barrels per day refinery, where he inspected facilities and held talks with the management team. He said Accra is committed to making the refinery a key source of fuel supply once commercial terms are finalised.​ Prempeh noted that buying refined products from Nigeria is expected to be cheaper than relying on distant imports from Europe.

Cubana Chief Priest backs Peller after iShowSpeed snub

Socialite Cubana Chief Priest has backed TikTok creator Peller after his unsuccessful attempts to meet global streamer iShowSpeed during the American’s recent visit to Lagos. iShowSpeed arrived in Nigeria on Wednesday to celebrate his 21st birthday, and Peller’s efforts to see him dominated conversations on social media.​ Reacting on Instagram, Cubana Chief Priest praised Peller’s persistence and “shameless” hustle, criticising those who mocked the young content creator for trying to connect with the popular streamer.
