The border closure is a good decision but then, the end result and what we stand to gain eventually is what we're still waiting anxiously to see. Sometimes the fact that a policy is good doesn't translate to creating desired results unless proper strategic steps and decisions are made to back it up!

Despite all d drugs that are smuggled into d US from Mexico, d US didn't close its border to Mexico. Instead it improved d capacity of its customs officers to stop any attempt by anyone to smuggle things out of or into d US.

The world did not definitely move to smuggling which illegal and unacceptable. It breeds

Why smuggling?

Fuel is smuggled because when Benin without fuel subsidy is selling fuel at 290 per liter, why won't someone buy fuel in Nigeria at 145 and sell across the border?

Also, when government does not expand port facilities, and when the customs is so corrupt, why don't people smuggle?

Na you wey vote for.change.

There's no border in d world where people do not attempt to smuggle. Borders aren't closed because of smuggling. Or maybe u are saying d closure will make d smugglers repent & when d border is reopened, they won't smuggle again cos buhari punished them by closing d border

Re: IMF Backs Nigeria On Border Closure by Nobody: 4:55pm On Oct 19, 2019
Oh no. IMF is an enemy out to destroy Africa;
If your enemy suddenly supports your policy, you should re-check the policy and find out if you re on the right path. Or what is their motive for offering public support.

There is no border in the world that a entire country actively encourages smuggling because it enriches its corrupt establishment and expects it's neighbour to jubilate.

There is no country in the world when it's called citizen actively support subversive activities against their own country.

Stop smuggling of what?

No, I support economic policies that would leave us impervious to smuggling and make it difficult for the smuggler.

Like if we remove fuel subsidy, not only would smuggling of petrol have no rationale, but it would eventually lead to more jobs and savings which can be reinvested into education, transport, etc.

Also, if we increased no of ports, and ended corruption in the ports, who needs to.go.to.cotonu.

You are happily chopping money, which is why you see me as a PDP supporter. Which I ain't.

Sorry to disappoint you

And your government needs to sit up. PDP was a disappointment. APC is just turning out to be like them
