Why it matters:
Israel is experiencing serious economic issues due to global boycott actions. In an open letter, 300 Israeli economists warned that the boycott goes beyond just not buying certain goods.
The big picture:
"Filin 'Yar Kwalisa," which means beautifying and shaping life, is a forum comprised of businessmen, intellectuals, and entrepreneurs in Northern Nigeria who annually organize conferences to enhance and purify their businesses.
What they're saying:
Sumayya Abubakar Makki, a businesswoman from Bauchi State stated, "As supporters of the Axis of Resistance, we must distance ourselves from all Israeli-related products and seek alternatives from countries that oppose the Israeli regime."
Zainab Muhammad, a nursing graduate, highlighted the high-quality products from Iran, appreciating the event's lectures on business strategies and the importance of avoiding products that support the Israeli economy.
Key points:
- The annual conference held in Kaduna focused on the importance of abstaining from Israeli-related products.
- On the other hand, the businessmen were encouraged to import Iran's products as they remained more profitable and quality.
