Bros, you can't compare Lagos to Aba in terms of shoe/leather production and export. Mind you, this is just Lagos export terminal. I will create another thread showing Cameroon export terminal.

I was informed that Ghana export terminal is located at Milverton...Omo, Aba too much

Of course! I know that already but Lagos is mechanized.

kettykin:
I do business in lagos and Aba. Lagos isnjust a child's play when compared to Aba in terms of shoes , leather products and fabrics, some Lagos traders like the ones in the YouTube come to Aba to buy fabrics and shoes .

It doesn't change the fact shoes are also manufactured in Lagos state.

kettykin:
The insecurity, sit at home , infrastructure like high cost of electricity and lack of export facilities is what is hindering Aba , If these 3 things are sorted , Aba will take on China, Pakistan and Bangladesh, Lagos cannot match Aba in shoe and leather fabrics .

This is why otti should work on very cheap source of renewable energy, ports for export and an environment conducive for s cluster. The cost of doing business in Lagos is already s set back

Those are other factors affecting shoe production in Aba but Chinese shoes top the list. Aba can't compete with Chinese shoes because they make it cheaper and more fanciful than Aba shoes.

Chinese shoes must be banned from entering Nigeria. That's the point.

kettykin:
If Aba will tap only 10 % of the world's shoe and leather products economy which i estimate at about $1 trillion Aba will not only beat Lagos but Become the largest economy in Africa.

There is where the Abia Governor should streamline his activities, plans and infrastructure. Build a world class footwear hub or leather products city and relax in government house umuahia making money.

If I post how much Nike makes by manufacturing from China and how Aba can replicate what China does and supply to all parts of Africa, 10 % Europe market , 10 % Arab markets 10 % United state market then we are there.
Nike made a whopping $51.46B in 2023 this is far more than Nigeria made from niger delta oil and gas .


If Aba takes just 10% of nikes market , Aba will be making Nothing less than N6 trillion meanwhile Lagos IGR is less than 2 Trillion

Shoes are produced in Lagos state in larger scales too

kettykin:
Aba has gone beyond Nigeria. Even other countries come to buy from Aba and take back to their countries. Cameroon buys from Aba , Burkina faso, Mali, I have seen Aba products in Niamey.

If the governor works towards building his dream port and other infrastructure, Aba will be unstoppable.

As long as Aba is in Nigeria, the quantity of shoes exported to those countries and even other parts of Nigeria will continue to reduce if Chinese shoes are not banned from coming in.

These ones in the video na small compared to 5 years ago.

mrvitalis:
Chinese shoes can no longer compete with ABA
Dollar has mad sure of that

Are you into Aba shoes?

I am telling you many shops has closed because of Chinese shoes but you're are saying Chinese shoes can't compete.

Many people close to me have given up shoemaking for another trade. This is reality.

That video with those shoes in sack can't compare to the numbers of shoes in sacks that were loaded in trucks some years ago.

Chinese don finish our textile and shoe industries.

Khayceeofficial:
Both Jackson and Palmer were onside if he had squared that ball...

Damn, This video go replay for my dream this night

Exactly, dude was selfish.

Kimbeast:
Poor Sterling created 4 chances, had an assist and made 3 good passes to Jackson and Broja in the Box that both wasted. If Sterling was useless then Palmer, Broja and the other attackers were shambolic.

Sterling still leads in the ranking.

kettykin:
You're quite right, about the post, 1 out of every shoe worn in West Africa and parts of east Africa is made in Aba.
All Alex otitis government needs to do is to get Aba shoes at par with European standards and US standards, build a cargo airport and export shoes using the AGOA act to united states , this is were 2 prominent Abians can play a big Role, Okonjo iweala can help with the agoa connection while prof Okechukwu Orama can help me with the loans to build a world class workshop for shoes, textile, leather products etc .

I am presently scrutinizing a business plan that will help Aba beat Lagos in revenue generation just exporting hand made leather products to united states, Canada, and Europe. With world class equipment from Japan and Germany , manufacturing of shoes for all types of scenarios at very low cost , Aba will take on China, Pakistan, India and take a chunk of the $350B marketnof shoes and about $400b market for other leather products like women bags, laptop bags , belts etc

Aba shoes will keep dying as long as this government keeps allowing Chinese shoes in Nigeria. Shoe makers are closing shops everyday.

Kimbeast:
When he was invincible the entire match how can he do anything.

Sterling created 4 chances, a goal plus multiple good passes that didn't lead to a shot. Two passes to Jackson and one to Broja. Also singlehandedly created the chance he missed. If sterling was poor because of one missed chance then the rest attackers need to be burnt for being useless.

Sterling was poor from the time he missed the first goal. He also missed the second goal. Him and Jackson were abysmal. They made the attack dull.

I agree. Sterling, Jackson and Broja were useless today.

Khayceeofficial:
Poor is good bro
This guy's game was abysmal. Has always been

I concur.

Lana1:
No!!

https://images2.imgbox.com/bd/7e/u9bv4gbV_o.gif

Sterling killed the moral of the players as soon as he lost that goal. He was obviously selfish.

Kimbeast:
Palmer lost more possession than Sterling in this match. Why won't the defense be under pressure when only Gallagher was left in the midfield? You should be blaming Poch for that.

Did Palmer lose goals like Sterling? Sterling was poor today. No matter how we try to sugarcoat it.

Omoluabi16:
And these guys have been busy midweek posting pictures with blue Christmas tree with the manager even smiling. I don't recall SAF, Mou or even wenger doing all that rubbish. I miss the hard men of old who understood what it meant when they play for these clubs. Abeg who be the person wey sign
Jackson
Ugochukwu
Disasi
Gusto
Fofana1
Fofana2
Cucurella
Badiashile
Madueke. We won't win with these guys

I can single out only Fofana and Cucurella. The later has improved alot.

Madueke and Gusto are not bad but we need world class players not prospects.

Kimbeast:
Was sterling playing defense? Was sterling the reason Pochettino left Gallagher all alone in the midfield?

Sterling and Jackson were the reason the defense was under pressure. Why? They kept missing chances and losing possession. Especially Sterling.

Kimbeast:
His assist to Nkunku showed you why Pochettino kept him on.

His staying till the end showed why we lost the match.

Kimbeast:
Yes he had a poor 2nd half like most of our other attackers. I am surprised that nigga was saying our best player in the first half should not come out for the 2nd half. That's just hilarious.

I agree he deserved to start second half but he didn't deserve to finish.

Kimbeast:
Our best player In the first half had no business entering for the 2nd half lmao.

Yes, best utill he missed that goal. From that moment he was poor. Losing possession, diving etc.

Khayceeofficial:
Bro, poch is clueless
Sterling had no business entering this pitch for that second half but the clown allowed it

Mourinho put Renato sanchez in second half come remove am few mins later. This kind ruthless is what I expect from this Argentine eguaveon but he knows nothing

The coach na pure clueless. His reading of game is too slow.

I wish we can get a better coach.

Chelsea owner sold Champions league winning players for average players thinking they will perform magic overnight.

Sterling and Jackson are the main culprits in this match. Despite that the coach stubbornly left them on the field.

The coach is another problem. Your saw your team under pressure in the tail end of first half and beginning of second half yet you did nothing to change the pattern by bringing in players until they scored you and parked the bus.

Unless they buy striker next month they are going nowhere.

onitsha and aba are not state capitals but they have more decent houses than ibadan

Bhuhahahahaha! Stop the joke and answer the question.

Are Onitsha, Enugu, Owerri and Aba cities?

Are Onitsha, Owerri, Enugu and Aba cities?

I was shocked how a small company just woke up overnight to buy Union bank. I knew something was not right. Especially seeing the barkers are from.....N

Doesn't have what it takes to be a city

Nothing to write home about aftermath the revolution in Ghana. Rhey are back to square one.

Human being na human being. For it's America.

Ballzproblem2:
Gallagher wants to sign , they're literally forcing academy players out for quick bucks.


as much as I hate Mason mount ,that was his story too.

I only turned blind eye because he is not the one to take Chelsea forward.


This trend needs to stop.

Oh! It's not as if he doesn't want to sign. If that's the case, Chelsea might turn to selling club.
Not good at all.

Ballzproblem2:
One senior figure at a Premier League rival told ESPN that it is no secret within the game that an offer of £50 million would likely be enough to tempt Chelsea to offload Conor Gallagher.

{ESPN}

If he doesn't sign new contract, he should be sold.
