Will The Continued Closure Of Seme-border Solve Nigeria's Importation Problem? by excel111(m): 10:51pm On Aug 30, 2019
The President of Nigeria, Buhari has said that the closure of the seme border is to stop the smuggling of rice and banned items from coming into the country. But on the other hand, this has also brought a serious decline in the foreign exchange reserve which the government wants to boost up for the nation's growth, which obviously cannot be achieved by closing the border.

The Seme border has been closed till date and has resulted to loss of revenue for exporting products that have been put on hold since its closure. It is said that a minimum of 5 trucks from each manufacturers stuck at the borders are worth a weekly loss of $1 million since the closure of the border, and as such operators of these products have been lamenting over this loss for their exporting products.


So how can the locally produced items be transported for exportation if the seme border is being closed without finding a strategic and tactical solution to this problem?

In your opinion, what are the tactical and strategic moves the government can take in other to solve this issue?
