I have said it before and I will continue to say it that GSM is working not like one Dapo the touring governor.

Angelfrost:


Disfigure ke??! What they will re-spray and convert to personal vehicles. Iffa hear say them use these cars take fight crime.

emkz:
Someone takes money meant for his state's development and purchases cars for the police, we praise him. What was he supposed to do with the money before, celebrate his birthday in Dubai?

I think it should be made law that all cars for our security agencies and interstate transport must be assembled in Nigeria. Buying Kia Rio does not make economic sense if the cars were shipped into Nigeria. They are using your money to fund other people's jobs and you are praising the governor when he should be answering questions for the cost of those vehicles and the comparative cost savings if the cars had been made in Nigeria.

mightybishop:
Please before you praise this man, make sure you're living in Ibadan. I doubt if a person that owns properties, cars and run a business here in ibadan would ever praise this man. I will ask a simple question that requires a straight answer. What has this man done in ibadan that you can point at as development? Fine is doing well with the civil servant and abolition of school fees. Don't forget he also took a loan of 10b 2 month after assumption of office. We Nigerians are truly our own problem.

Innoson is not a manufacturer, innoson assembles stop deceiving yourselves. In any event even if Hyuandai, Nissan, Honda etc are only assembling and Innoson is manufacturing, they are providing jobs for residents in the SW and IGR for the host state govts. only a foolish governor will patronise a product that brings no jobs or income to his own state and takes away jobs and igr from his state.

is innoson the one that manufactured the panels? where is his stamping plant, where did the get the steel? all you are showing are pictures of assembly

Mutemenot:
nice car from the able governor. I hope our Olopa won't disfigure this ones in few months to come...

isthatso:

calm down, when did the man enter? if ibadan is so bad what of the man that was there for 8 years? where were you then?

isthatso:

they are assembling what equipment do you want to see again?


bottom line; I am a governor, i have vehicle assembly plants in my state or region, they provide jobs to people who pay taxes to my state, their presence provides knock on employment for others in my state or region. This assembly plants are all in itheir infancy, some will not survive. I am obligated to do everything i can to patronize them because to patronise others brings no benefit to me and to patronize those who are local to my state helps them grow and the more they grow, the more stable and established they become employment and revenue they bring to my state or region. I will only patronise others when i have no local alternative. i am not governor of nigeria, i am governor of my state.

Topmaike007:
he has completed the t
roads that lead from Lagos to Ogun, where Ambode stoped work in the Lagos toll gate he has also commissioned 100 patrol truck and many more things that is not visible to you outsiders

TundeBricklayer:


I know you and your likes hate to hear Innoson is manufacturing vehicles can you show me this from those assembling plant

Innoson manufacturing plant Nnewi

isthatso:

tate.

isthatso:


I hear what you are saying but actually it's not the job of governors to fund or equip the Nigerian police, so actually we should praise them because if we wait for federal govt to fund the police, we would be encountering kidnappers and armed robbers on a daily basis.

isthatso:


Kia rio is assembled in Nigeria, many cars are assembled in Nigeria these days, Kia, handa accord, honda city, honda hr-v, honda pilot. Some Hyundai models and some Nissan models. I think even ford though not sure they have started.

TundeBricklayer:

ANAMCO has been existing for decades in Enugu we never claim it Manufacturing plant, ANAMCO plant is just like those plant you posted

Below is ANAMCO

emkz:


I think it should not be funded by the federal or state governments either. We need a police welfare fund that must receive contributions from federal states and local governments. Statutory contributions must be levied on all companies operating in Nigeria, perhaps 3 percent of their operating income?

This fund must look after equipping the police, buying them vehicles and paying for their insurance. The fund must be managed by the police representatives, minister of police, the central bank and citizens.

emkz:


I didn't know this. Thanks for letting me know.

isthatso:


The constitution puts Police in the exclusive list which means only federal govt has jurisdiction over police matters.

Thats what Fashola did with the security trust fund (partnership between govt and business) and reduced the crime rate in lagos, and thats the model other governors are following which is why we are always hearing about governors buying equipment cars guns,ammunition communications equipment for the police and we hear about how Federal monies meant for ordinary police uniforms never gets to the policemen

isthatso:


you are showing me picture of tools used to cut and shape FLAt panels for buses , Are those stamping plants? where is the engine plant, who makes the engines, the gear boxes, the headlamps, the drive shaft, the steering wheel, the seats

why must you always get emotive and turn everything into hate? Bottom line like I said, if as governor of Ogun state i have assembly plants in Ogun state and Innoson is actually manufacturing but does not benefit me 9because it does not provide jobs for my state or IGR for my govt) i will not as a governor patronise innoson to the detriment of my own assembly plants that actually provide jobs and iGr for my state and people. Neither do i expect Obiano or any other governor in the same position.

you can carry on debate about assembly or manufacturing with yourself, it makes no difference to me. this is a story about jobs and growth. whether you are assembling or manufacturing, you are providing jobs and IGR. everything else is an ego trip and chest beating.

isthatso:


yep it's starting to take hold, . It was started many years ago by jonatha's regime we moaned about the high duties on cars but the results are beginning to pay off. this is why people who talk about border closure and rice need to see the big picture. VW is about to start as well

Ayomarcel:





Or maybe he got a better deal from KIA.. Think about that too.. Many possibilities.

emkz:


This is great news but that border matter needs to be discussed. I am in support of it. But it seems our local businessmen are not taking advantage of it. Why are you against it?

TundeBricklayer:

Innosson source their engines from Japan and China, most of their parts also source within, Nnewi is known for vehicle parts, mind you the only vehicle battery plant in Nigeria is located in Nnewi own by IBETO, Ngobros is into vehicle parts manufacturing, same with other companies in Nnewi, Nnewi in only town in Nigeria were manufacturing of Vehicle and motorcycle is possible, that's why first wholly made-in-Nigeria motorcycle, the 'NASENI M1' was manufactured in Nnewi, supervised by FG

Below is battery manufactured in Nnewi the only made in Nigeria battery there are lots of vehicles parts being Manifacture in Nnewi.
