Zeezxo: Kindly explain who is stealing from who? Remember these importer/smugglers used to bring these goods directly to Nigeria but the useless government decided to ban them. That created the chain of events that led to what is happening today and it will get worse. The final stage is a depopulation of the country when people realise they can no longer get what they want but this is the long term plan by niggers in charge. When you are gone, they take over your landed assets and begin to establish their style of government. I apologize for speaking a bit off point and you may not understand me. |

romenna: Someone from Niger republic or Chad can easily get position or favour from Nigerian government than you from the South. Just like the Fulani government chased the Ghanaian out of Nigeria in 1983, they can NEVER do that to the people from the Sahel. Buhari is just diverting the illegal business to his brothers from the Sahel. they work hand and hand https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrWlM_-R5P4 1 Like 1 Share

Dee60: That was how they do during the oil subsidy era, you are right! This change era calls subsidy "under recovery" and it is the exact same practice only that government now pays under recovery money to NNPC since they are the sole importer of products. The real question is, who are the people collecting this money in the name of NNPC? The fraud to be unveiled in this light is going to be earth shattering. |

godwinkessi: No, this has nothing to do with xenophobia. It is purely economy. Those countries government should tighten their own end. Smugglers paid taxes running into million of dollars to their government but smuggled those products into Nigeria without paying a dime. So, action needs to be taken! 5 Likes 1 Share |

romenna: This is the second person saying cutoff electricity and I must chip this in. Nigeria cannot just "cutoff" the electricity it supplies to neighboring countries because of an agreement signed that mandates Nigeria to supply these nations with power from Kainji dam. Initially each of these countries would have built their own dams on the same river and that would negatively affect the downstream flow in Nigeria, thus making it economically stupíd to build a dam large enough to supply us alone. It just would not work. See if you can read this up elsewhere as my eyes are hurting and I cannot type much. What I'm trying to say is, if they had built their own dams on the River Niger, our dam would be useless to us. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Let those Benin traders cry more and they should blame their government for not doing enough to curb smuggling, they all enjoyed it and Nigerians suffered it while it lasted, no more big brother and Africa first, it is Nigeria first now 2 Likes |

Nigeria has boundary problems that we ourselves are the cause of. Benin Republic is smuggling in goods taxed on their soil into Nigeria with the help of our own customs also who help Nigerians smuggle out many of our subsidized petroleum products? Na still Nigerian customs that's why they are inordinately rich especially the ones at our international borders. You need to see the tussle in office to get posted to international borderlines as customs officers. 3 Likes |

Bsmartt: But was that not the status quo? Albeit without the high excuse duties of rice, frozen turkey etc The reason our government banned these products earlier was because they are the ones who own the large farms that should produce these items we were importing. All the large farms in the country are owned by politicians. They do not make policies that benefit the ordinary Nigerian farmer because in business they don't want competition. This is why they make business difficult hard for a local farmer who wants to expand. Have you ever tried to export any agricultural produce from this country? There is no way you would understand me if you have not or maybe had a discussion with a farmer who has tried. You will be frustrated by customs until your goods perish/rotten/decay...mind you I said EXPORT, not even import that we are talking about smugglers. We had been importing the things jejely in the past, paying duties/bribes where we can, smuggling the little that could be smuggled. Because demand from/patronage of the politicians' farm was low, they decided to ban the items we import to force us to patronise them. What then happens? BOOM, smuggling goes over the roof!.... It's a long story and my eyes hurt, I wish I could continue. 2 Likes |

My fervent prayer is that other countries should close their border so that we cannot export crude oil then Nigeria government will be forced to do the needful. |

if you read the context properly, you would have noticed the plead is not for Nigerian benefits but Benin personal and selfish interest. what do you want Buhari to do here.; 1. we cry made in nigerian products are not be patronized, now he wants that to happen you cry. 2. the borders are leaking and the Benin govt doesn't want to take responsibility because it favours their economy but our economy is bleeding. 3.Must of you are so blinded with HATE and don't see, read through this post we make the countries economy boom while your own problem is rice. 4. electricity we don't have enough it's been transferred to Benin. 5. fuel that hasn't been sufficient for our country is been smuggled out to benin. 6. we as youth should think deeply before we shout out HATE,.. This is economy that is been talked about not Tasha of BBN realstars: 3 Likes |

blueghost: Does it mean we shd allow them moved in substandard goods illegally without custom duty? They can as well moved their goods through water & pay duties to us but they used to be jamtalk that their country is better each time we went to buy cars and forgotten that they only had friendly & subsidized duties on imported goods, they shd eat their imported goods & we need to support our local made goods & farm products. Meanwhile our govt shd reduce the custom duty too. Chikena. |

Ishilove: This is the same story of a lot of our political elite na. Their survival is heavily dependent on govt patronage. How many people were hoping on the PID scam to fall through? We may never know. The same thing will happen to Nigeria eventually. Love or hate Buhari, he is trying to force through some hard choices that will benefit us all in the long run. Right on this forum you can see ‘successful’ jokers whose whole income is based on smuggling goods into this country. So many industries are dead because of smuggling. There is so much rubbish in this country today. Did you go to boarding school? Those galvanized steel buckets we used are no more. Today we have imported iron buckets that rust in 6 months. I found this out when we identified a problem with fire buckets in our stations. That is how some joker importers destroyed an entire industry. We have a whole class of hustlers heavily dependent on importing to survive, Nigeria’s true economy and future be damned. 5 Likes 4 Shares |
