Harshness has been transferred to 3rd party. Let him/her find a way to deal with it

All na by grace oooo

phr0nesis:

That's because the cost of production in Nigeria is too much

Weaker Naira and inflation mean less purchasing power of average Nigerians because the rich and upper middle class go abroad for treatment.
Multinationals are accountable to global shareholders. Operations in increasingly impoverished climes are not profitable enough to remain. Simple economics.

GSK end of operation will favour me and my family 🙏🏾

casualobserver:
A whole GSK employs ionly 290 people? doesnt that show that they dont have much of an impact in the economy? Like Unilever a few weeks ago, the truth is much of their business has been taken over by domestic companies. In the case of GSK, much of their medicines are out of patent. Every dick and harry is manufacturing pain killers and generic anti-biotics, we see their adverts all the time on youtube or tv. people are complaining that Augmentin has gone up but Augmentin is merely a brand name for amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium, there are cheaper generic Amoxicilin in the market because they are out of patent. thats why they are leaving. they do not have enough drugs still under patent.


The departure of these companies is not neccesarily a statement on the state of Nigeria but more a statement of the inability of these companies to compete with cheaper local manufacturers.

You yourself know this thing you spewed is bunkum. Is 290 people not a lot? This doesn't even include the people indirectly employed by them. An international company just exited the country due to the harsh business environment and you're downplaying it like it's nothing. If 10 of them exit, how many will be left?

ShaqFu:

And they ask why do gainfully employed people japa.

Quality control and production managers at GSK would be well paid people. But suddenly now have no job.
Imagine if one of them missed the chance to japa 5 or 10 years ago. By now their children would have settled in abroad already.

Weirdos don’t want to operate in Nigeria that means jobs will be lost
But will want to ship their goods through 3rd party🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️💔

Talk is cheap. You think profitable production is having an over bloated workforce like the nigerian civil service?

Alot of production especially is pharma and food industries are automated with few personnel ensuring set parameters and quality control are functional. You only need much personnel in management/admin and sales end part of it.

Ebola Tinubu is killing the economy and lying that he had saved trillions 😂 Una go see shège !

ecolime:

This means the operating environment is harsh and not conducive enough for their operations.


Guys, lets just pray we don't have major sicknesses. Almost all the best Doctors in Naija are leaving this country in droves.

Went for a routine checkup earlier, my Physician don JAPA. His replacement looks and talks clueless.

Na young Doctors full everywhere. Dem be like IT students.

Why dey no go japa? When anyone makes a critical comments on government policies, you guys will term it 'hate'

As in, I believe some Japa not because of the economic situation of the country, but because of their kids. It sounds prudent though, giving ones kid a sand environment and a fair chance in life to start.

What exactly is funny about this?

The way pharmaceutical companies work is this: you do research and develop a medicine. youare granted a patent which may last 10, 20 25 years etc. During that period, the medicine may cost you N100 to produce but you can sell it for N10,000 to recover your r&d costs. Once your patent is over any tom dick and harry can manufacture the same product and sell it for N100 and sell it for N200. Nobody is going to see the same product for N200 and pay N10,000 simply because it is manufactured by GSK. Thats the problem with GSK, not that the Nigerian economy is bad.

The departure of these companies is not neccesarily a statement on the state of Nigeria but more a statement of the inability of these companies to compete with cheaper local manufacturers.

Thanks for the explanation

The Indian manufacturers have spoiled market for them.....

You clearly do not know what you are talking about. 290 people for a company like GSK is peanuts. Ordinary Fidson a nigerian company in the same industry that most Nigerians have probably never heard about employs 215, UAC for instance employs over 1,300 people. MTN employs 1,700. Dangote employs 11,000 excluding their transport workers, Guiness employs close to 1,000, UBA employs 20,000.

The point is they are not that important. their employee strength is minimal for a multinational of their size and their products are replaceable and indeed have been replaced by local manufacturers which is why they are quitting.

They only have name, they contribute little to our economy and exploit us with huge prices, they are a parasitic company...good riddance!!

taylor88:


Na you wey yeye dey worry

When the Zaccheus Ebola you people elected wan use tax blind their eyes you say make them no go

Which tax?
You clearly are not talking about Nigeria because Tinubu has not imposed any new tax and has even given 3-6 months tax breaks....

Rose, don't ask o !

Asiwaju is doing well. Wait until a pack of "Always ultra pads" of 8 pieces, sells for 2,500. That's when ladies like you will start using cotton wool and tissue papers to clog your flow. Then you'll understand how very fvcked Nigeria currently is.

Ok
