As a matter of fact, do we really need to import those banned items? How do we allow home based industries to grow when we import even toothpicks?

Good move I love the ideal

. .

A good opportunity for some business minded people to start producing some of those stuffs locally.

E.G toothpick, sardines, margarines, textile, etc.

90 percent of people who commented above me don't understand what the op posted and it's effect on the economy.

Toothpick??

sorry o but I can't eat made in Nigeria sardine. Some things are not just meant to be produced in Nigeria. Our hygienic standards have to Improve

I hope this will not make imported goods high in price

This will help boost local production and encourage local content

Ernie, abeg come help ooo

CBN should start buy building industries to match the same quantity of those imported items listed above. Placing them on ban is not the solution to the problem.

Buhari wants to destroy this country!

You no get brain at all, your brain should have informed you banning this items which can be easily produced in Nigeria will further strengthen the economy.

You never see branding and packaging! You go don eat am finish b4 you go know sef!

tkcosby02:
Am sure the only thing we dont import in Nigeria is citizenship. Our politicians, profs, royal fathers are all imported. So its not surprising we are importing meat, fish, tootpick, even peppe and tomatoes.... Meanwhile the poster above me stole my portion, meet me in the supreme court, im suing you for unlawful possession

Abeg, I just dey hear of frontpage everytime....where that place dey sef? I never c am since. And this FTC plus spacebooking, how much dem dey pay for d tin. Cos, e be like we fit dey buy am in bulk dey resell make profit.

But seriously, why should we still be importing toothpicks though!

As for those building materials, considering the naija factor (bribing SON and all those other officials who supervise for standards), we hope we won't start hearing frequent stories of collapsed buildings?!

*does sign of the cross*

To avoid rushing into conclusions, what is the aim? Does it increase the value of Naira?

If your brain cannot deduce the aim... If you have a university degree you need to return it...
