Kukutente23:

Go and tell your mother to show you your father

You can then ask him to explain the reason you're so daft

Ikaeniyan0:
This issue can't be blame on the government infact, the APC government lifted the ban on 42 or so items few days ago

Ikaeniyan0:
Well, issues like the one reported in this article will eventually lead to naira stabilizing and inflation reducing

Ikaeniyan0:
If importation have reduce, why is the naira still freely falling against the dollar.

I know the lifting of the ban on some items will make the naira fall at the official window.

Just like saying that high cost of fuel is good for the economy because our roads are free

No hope here , and the right to protest has been killed during the endsar, Nigeria government and powerful individual committed genocide against her citizens during that endsar and unfortunately you do not expect justice from same people, it's that sad, now Nigeria are suffering and can't even protest because of fear 😨 of been killed and tribalism too

FreeStuffsNG:

Hmmm. Some local companies are already filling the supply gap . An indigenous company now produces and export tubular batteries locally and now seeking govt policy to ban the importation and export of the raw materials needed for battery manufacturing.

For the naysayers, below is a reminder from Pastor Giwa

👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

“Go to the rural areas, farms, markets, etc, to see those who are really suffering. The poor Nigerians are not on social media.

“You come online every day, post your pictures and videos, and still claim that you are suffering. My brother, you are not sincere to yourself.

“Today, our youths have misplaced priorities because they don’t think straight. They would rather stay online from morning till night instead of using their precious time and money for something tangible.”

nedekid:

Lol.
Fuel true true should be made 2k per liter, let the roads be truelly free.

The imoprters should source for produts made in Nigeria and export. The same way they travel abroad to source for product to import to Nigeria.

Don't tell me Nigeria doesn't produce anything. Go to Aba alone and see how shoes, bags, belts are made in larger scales though they can request producers to improve the quality of their products then export to other African countries and as far as the Pacific countries. Don't forget Lagos and also Kano are also producing the same.

Open warehouses and shops in these countries to market and sell these products.

These process is tedious and demands strategic consistent marketing and advertising in those countries but the benefit supercedes the pains.

The same way Hyundai, Samsung, Toyota even Pep stores from South African go to other countries to advertise their products and make money for their countries.

The problem with importers, is the urge to make quick money without hard labor.

Mind you, there are other products prodced in Nigeria here. Adire, Aso Oke, Ankara, Innoson, Nord, Electric cables, Nigerian foods, plastic chairs, etc. You can add to the list.

Importers should upgrade and stop looking for fast money.
