Yes, but that will depend on whether we support them, cause qualitative improvement is as a result of quantitative improvement, vise-versa.

That is...the improvement in quality you're talking about cannot happen unless they produce more shoes and keep correcting known mistakes.

All you have to do is keep buying made in Nigeria products whether shoes or other things, and improvement in quality will happen on it's own. It's a natural progression.

It's like that for every other technology. We must start from somewhere.

Ur idealogy will not encourage Nig manufacturers to improve in quality! It will encourage them to be lazy! We re in a world where standard ve already been set! We don't ve to be going back! Our manufacturers knw what to do to improve quality but they re selfish and wicked! I bought an Aba made shoe simply because I wanted to patronise made in Nig! The shoe gave way in less than 2weeks! I. Had to go back to the foreign one that I ve been using for over 2yrs, whchich is already badly worn out! I need to wait another month end when I will budget for another shoe! The Aba one is not so cheap since I bought it for half d price I bought d foreign one which is still serving after 2yrs!

Every other country you worship passed through the same phase you're complaining about. But, they accepted it with patriotism.

Again, if you want the Aba shoe makers to improve, all you have to do is keep buying from them. Unfortunately, there's no other way it could be done. If you keep patronizing them, eventually, over many years they'll produce durable shoes. Also note that those shoes are of different quality. You may just have purchased the lowest quality cause many people have used theirs for over 1 year and not complaining.

Let me tell you, most of the items our pple buy thinking they're Italians, China, Spain were actually produced locally in Aba, Onitsha and so, but to up their patronize they need to add made in China, Spain etc, you can't get things produced in those countries that cheap #Buymadeinnigeriagoods

I believe am very much pro-APC, however, I would have the say that you have got no point here.

The campaign of --"Patronize Nigeria Products" should not end with Public Office holders. Everyone has a part to play if we must make things work in our beloved country; especially someone in the calibre of the "first lady". She is a role model for crying out loud; as such millions of ladies across the globe would likely emulate her by default. If she is seen spending moderately on fashion and more importantly, patronizing locally made products; other financially stable individuals would be more favorably disposed to emulate her.

Finally, we should desist from playing a politics where only the politicians win; i.e, let's re-examine our party alignment and focus squarely on performance. This is when the people/mass benefit from good governance.

Unfortunately, as I told you before, the only way the shoe quality will improve in Aba is by your continued support. This's not my theory but a well known one about how improvement in quality happens.

Yes, the USA may purchase made in Italy shoes, but that will only represent about 1% of Italian shoe import into the US, 90% would be made in US themselves. And for every 1% import from Italy, the US probably ship them 20% of other American products in return. So, as you can see, there's balance of trade even to the advantage of the US.

You buy shoes, suits, shirts, e.t.c from Italy. But, what does Italy import from Nigeria?
Re: Ben Bruce Flaunts His Made-In-Aba Shoes, Says They're As Good As Italian Shoes by toshmann(m): 2:09pm On Feb 15, 2016
If we had been buying locally made marerials since the 1980s, by now they woulda improved so much.

They can only improve when you support them.

Buy local shoes, clothes, cars etc

I knew business women in abuja back in yhe fays who buy local materials, take them to senegal, amd re-import them as senegalese with high prices and people rush the products. Sane products they rejected at lower prices when they were just naija materials.

No doubt. But amidst all what you said, one shouldn't in the effort of patronizing nigeria made good forget to do what he or she is suppose to do. That's all there is to it.

Our senators and rep members were elected into office to represent members of their federal constituency and senatorial district so as to give them a voice and make development grace their communities, not show the whole nation that they patronize made in Nigeria goods.

Compare the amount of times Ben Bruce has shown that he patronize made in Nigeria goods to the amount of times he has launched a project in his senatorial district, I believe the former far out weigh and out source the latter. That's what I'm saying.

However, I'm not saying we shouldn't patronize made in Nigeria goods, nope, all I'm saying is we should do what we're suppose to do at the appropriate time.
