Madness how? Don’t your brothers ship Toyota from Canada to Nigeria when Toyota is made in South Africa ?


Oga it’s a luxury car he gifted to a relative, or you think it’s easy to buy cars outright in the US?

You read a story, they responded, rather than question the motives of the bloggers that published the first story, you’re more interested in INDICTING the ex-minister;


normal phd Nigerian mentality
Poverty has damaged the psyche of the average Nigerian.
So if I buy a 2009 jaguar for £30,000 and I no longer use it,I can't ship same car with average of $1000,pay customs duty like $4000 and dash it to my brother in the US?

Different states in the US have different laws when it comes to virtually almost every thing.

On the contrary,most of Europe have stricter vehicle inspection routine than America.
That's why a Mercedes car bought from say Germany costs more than same model in the from the US.
The issue might strictly be emission based.

American cars are traditionally cheaper because America was the largest and most competitive car market in the world , because manufacturers sell a lot of cars there, pricing is very competitive. However the major factor is currency. Nigerians started bringing cars from the us when the dollar was very weak in the ‘90s Now that the dollar is so strong and the Euro is weak, American cars are not as cheap comparatively as they used to be. These days it can be cheaper to buy in Europe especially new Mercedes cars.

Because you are a poor man who doesn’t understand the ways of the rich does not mean it has to make sense to you. There are people who regularly fly or ship their cars abroad. Some with exotic cars ship their cars abroad to fix/service. Some fly their cars abroad drive service and bring it back.
Average people here sef ship their range rovers to the UK for repairs all the time.
Poverty is like diabetes,it damages virtually almost all the systems in the human body,including the psyche.

Oga,you don't know anything.
Europe has a stricter vehicle inspection routine=fact.
The American Market is highly competitive hence they tend to find way to lower costs of production,hence they make cheaper cars with less specifications compared to Europe.
Hence the car dealers and the buyers who know about cars know European cars are more 'loaded' compared to American cars.
Eg a Toyota Corolla from Europe costs more than that from America,d one from America costs more than same model produced in South Africa.
I have given you verifiable facts, if you don't know,ASK

Car was bought in 2009 and shipped in 2011.

Me I never knew people are sending Car to America as gifts to America, I've been thinking it's other way round.

The car was therefore released to Dr. Kachikwu.

The car was subsequently returned to the dealer in Nigeria and refunds were made to Dr. Kachikwu.

Did I understand what refund mean, because the write up says the Car was bought in 2009 and has been used for years before been sent to America initially.

The story does not make sense.

I guess buying a 2 million naira watch will also be a dumb decision to you because a watch of 2 thousand naira also tells same time.

What is the difference? All the exotic cars imported into this country don't look insane?

The car in question is a Jaguar,a premium luxury British brand not a Toyota Corolla.
Car is a 2007 model,bought in 2009,shipped in 2011.
Shipping is average of $1000 thro and fro.
It's just like saying it will make more sense to buy another 2017 Gwagon in America instead of shipping the one you have here in Nigeria.
Finally, poverty is a bascard

It seemingly doesn’t make sense. However, for the criminals it does. In international crime parlance, this is known as ‘layering’ in money laundering underworld business. You steal from a jurisdiction, convert the cash into goods and legitimately move the goods to another jurisdiction where you can sell it legally and recoup the raw cash. You think an Igbo man would ship a car from Nigeria to the USA if he stands to make a loss, financially? Categorical no. The vigilance of the US customs prevented the plot from succeeding.

Na dem dem. They’re my we we…name checkers go for it. Onye beribe.

Millionaires ship cars every year during their vacation from around the world to US and UK every year.

They run the cars on American and UK roads and also fly with the cars back to their countries after summer.

Just that America has so many do's and dont's doesn't mean you cannot travel with your car into US.
