Some specified tyres are retreaded with no problems abroad . But the ones done here in nigeria are very dangerous, i changed some set of tyres today and discovered that they were retreaded and the date of production were changed. I bought those tyres Dunlop sp sport 26k each at Lagos 2013

so you mean focusing on agriculture would not solve anything?

If you don't see food to eat how will you be able to go outside and buy tyres?

it's like you don't go to market where you live... Do you know how much garri or tomatoes costs in the market today?

I support the idea of agriculture, but where is the focus on industrialization which will aid development in a populated country like ours, where is ajaokuta steel mill in all of their plans, even the agriculture how sincere are they, last week the finance minister admitted that the problem of agriculture is transportation of the farm product to the city, so far, she admitted the archievement is reduction of price of fertilizer from 8k to 5k, she admitted foods are rotten away in the rural area, so what are they talking about the transport? Rail that we take a long time atleast after this tenor.. It is well...
