Story! Story!!

I tire o

OK, what about bringing them through illegal routes by bribing customs?only in their dreams will that work until they secure borders and illegal route and fire all oga at the top aiding criminals.
besides what about those junks and dirts they called used vehicles that were still seen around apapa /oshodi express road that are very harzadous to our health.
you will be amazed if you stay on that road for few hours and see all manners of dirty useless imported things . Nigeria is in deed dumping ground.

Refined crude oil and foreign foods should be on the list

maybe we will call it
Nigerian Custom service enrichment list

wat about the importation of petrol and desiel they should band it. It is shame that Nigeria is still importing petrol at her age.

Rubbish! From the list u will know these guys are joking and dnt even have sense! As if we have steady electricity power supply to meet-up.

Thatz all

A better title would have been - List of Goods that will incur increase in Customs Bribe Rates.

If only they can stop the importation of cars in Nigeria, you will see huge amount of economic development in Nigeria but the kind of people we have can't think in that positive direction.

I saw cocoa butter on the list I beg is it the same cocoa butter cream we apply on our bodies or there is another type for I have been using Palmers cocoa butter for God knows how long. Please I don't want to use any nonsense on my smooth beautiful delicate skin.

Dat's All?
Issorait!
My oga @ the top will comment on this soon.
