Sometimes its disgusting that you see the only business Nigerians know how to do is import shoes, clothes, forever living, tianshi etc
We are killing our economy , every tom, Dick and Harry wants to travel to china or dubai to buy goods and dump in this country, whatever happened to creating and selling a home grown product , exporting to other countries.

Who's fault, you think some of the people that import from china and what have if given the needed finance can't produce it in this country ? But their no finance govt is not helping matters, you want them to fold their arm and watch abi .
Am sure if govt encourage production by providing finance and enabling environment thins will change

Nigerians will continue to import as long as there is no stable power supply in the country

you must not import, can't we offer services, sell raw materials, how many export brokers and traders do we have, nigerians are typically lazy, we produce some of the things we import, rice, clothes, food, we would rater take your money and grow the businesess of people outside,

Why can't a sane nigerian instead of importing food stuffs from taiwan or thailand decide to talk to his brothers who are responsible for importing rice worth billions of naira and decide to start a rice farming business.

It is pathetic, thats why there are no jobs, the youths are unemployed, its crazy, when you see a long thread about importation business, imagine someone writing on how to import, and dumb goods in this country and create millions of jobs for people in diaspora.

Totally PAthetic

@op, its simple, the cost of producing anything is almost at an all high compared to other countries, even smaller African nations. We live in a frustrating system that is programmed to cripple any gainful venture that could lead to mass progress. Currently, I'm planning on getting my products done abroad as its been hell making a living here doing what I do.
