APC Will Slash Tariffs On Imported Cars -osinbajo by tociano009(m): 6:42pm On Aug 23, 2015
Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, has assured that the General Muhammadu Buhari government will slash tariffs on imported vehicles.

He also said that the APC government would tackle the power problem by decentralising power generation across the country.

While addressing a town hall meeting of political stakeholders in Ondo State on Tuesday, Osinbajo said Buhari will not Islamise Nigeria contrary to the campaign smear of the Peoples Democratic Party.

He said, “We do not agree that there should be high tariffs on imported cars whether new or old ones because Nigeria is not producing cars for now.

“What we will do first is to fix power and encourage local production of cars. But before then we will reduce the high tariffs that Nigerians are paying to import vehicles into the country.”

Prof. Osinbajo argued that Nigerians should not find it difficult to purchase cars for their soci0-economic activities, and the APC government would ensure lower tariffs when voted into power.

On power, the vice presidential candidate said the problem in Nigeria was traceable to the lack of supply of gas to the power plants.

He promised that module power plants would be situated in neighborhoods where power is needed and gas supplied to it using trucks and other means besides pipelines.

According to him, the model has already been put to use in Lagos State where such plants supply power to designated neighborhoods.

Osinbajo also denied that the APC government would ban commercial motor cycles across the country, saying okada would be allowed provided riders obey laws and keep to the rules in the states where they operate.

He lamented the unemployment situation in the country, saying that as an emergency measure, the APC government would cooperate with states in creating 20,000 jobs annually in the country.

He said corruption would be stopped so that resources would be available for development projects.

He said under APC government, it would be criminal not to pay pensions, saying the law that would be put in place would compel employers to ensure pensioners got their entitlements as soon as they retire.

Osinbajo added that the job creation strategy would involve making loans available to small businesses with little or no interest

The Auto industry is dead then

Why will Toyota decide to Build a Plant in Nigeria and hire young Nigerians to power the auto revolution, when Nissan, Kia, Innoson et all are about to crumble under a government that subsidies tukunbo businesses at the expense of a home grown auto revolution.

Turning Nigeria into a dumping ground for vehicles that were recalled due to defects and mechanical issues is all the auto industry needs to crumble!

These guys should concentrate on keeping small promises like

1. Declaring assets publicly

2. Paying 5 K to Unemployed

3 . Truly abolishing the office of the first lady or is it wife of Pres

Before undertaking complex and confusing task they don't understand

I see job losses in the auto industry except these APC guys come to their senses

So in short they will kill are factories building cars in Nigeria.

What kind of stupidity is this? Instead of them raising taxes on imports to increase government revenue they ban daily use items, do a fake corruption war and lower taxes on luxury imports ensuring rich people in the country don't have to pair for their excess.

This is moronic. Congrats on your "change" Nigeria!
