obembet: Due to the high cost of import duties placed on the Automotive industry possibly to encourage local production, improve the economy, and still make selling price of each manufactured car affordable by an average citizen, the federal government in 2013 adopted an Automobile policy, in a bid to encourage foreign and indigenous car manufacturers to site their assembly plants within its territory since vehicles produced in the country don’t attract import levies, thus tend to be cheaper than its foreign counterparts.
The good news is that the Nigerian automobile manufacturing Industry is growing with a handful of these companies producing motor spare parts, fixing broken vehicle components, revamping used cars and assembling imported car parts. Just a few are into production of brand new (tear rubber) vehicles in Nigeria and that is a backlash at least for the labour market that begs for more employment opportunities.
Over the years, the growth of the auto Industry has witnessed series of challenges that is seeing to the preference given to foreign fairly used (Tokunbo) cars into the country. The reasons behind this shift are embedded in the history of this Industry in Nigeria especially that of the 1980s. Spare a few minutes to know what really happened.
History of Automobile manufacturing in Nigeria
The history of the Automotive Industry in Africa per se dates back to the colonial rule era when the British merchants brought them in during the ’50s into their protectorates. After the independence, the government went into a joint venture partnership that brought in world-class makers of fuel-powered conveyance units at the time from America, Germany, France and the United Kingdom which saw to the establishment of the Six assembly plants following the oil boom of the 1970s:
National Truck Manufacturers, Kano
Volkswagen of Nigeria Limited, Lagos
Peugeot Automobile Nigeria Limited, Kaduna
Anambra Motor Manufacturing Limited, Enugu
Leyland Nigeria Limited, Ibadan
Steyr Nigeria Limited, Bauchi
That partnership included subsidies on imported car parts to encourage these foreign experts.
These assembly lines were mainly into production of commercial Trucks and Passenger cars. Apart from the National Truck manufacturers located in Kano, Leyland Nigeria and Anambra Motor Manufacturing Limited were particularly into massive production of Trucks, Police vans and other military, security personnel vehicles. On the other hand, Volkswagen & Peugeot took care of passenger cars.
One can safely say that the government at the time heavily patronized and supported the Auto Industry mainly to enhance movement (mobility).
Since demand for these products was high enough to keep these companies in business, more than 100 units were reported to have been assembled per day. These plants produced the popular cars of the 1970 – 1980s and also left a trace in some of the vehicles we use today. The cars produced include: Peugeot 504, 505, and other Volkswagen products like Beetle, Jett, the Golf, Passat, and the Kombi bus which later metamorphosed into Danfo that we know on Lagos roads today.
Fast-forward to 1989, the country experienced a shortfall in oil prices and since crude oil contributed reasonably to the national treasury, the industry started experiencing a decline in demand which resulted in some of the firms going out of market.
Having been faced with such an unexpected tragedy, the Nigerian government tried its best to remedy the situation including increased charges on import duties so as to meet up. That move did backfire as cost of production went up, initially suppliers were not able to meet up with demand from buyers due to increased cost of production.
When it continued that way, people resorted to Tokunbo cars which became cheaper than Made-in-Nigerian cars and that was how we got to where we are today.
Car Manufacturers in Nigeria Now you know how Tokunbo cars became the order of the day, it is worth mentioning that Nigeria still have automobile manufacturers who have managed to thrive amidst high influx of Tokunbo (used) cars like Toyota, Mercedes and Honda.
For the sake of simplicity, we have divided the list into indigenous and foreign vehicle manufacturers
List of Indigenous Automobile Manufacturers in Nigeria
1. Nord Automobiles Limited
Ajayi Joshua Oluwatobi is the founder and CEO of the local manufacturing firm, Nord Motors. He is also a polished entrepreneur and co-founder of Jetvan Automobiles Limited, a recognized dealer of Mercedes-Benz Sprinter in the country.

3. Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing
Innocent Chukwuma widely known as Innoson Motors is an indigenous car manufacturer who rose from a motorcycle spare parts trader to a big name in the Automotive industry in Nigeria and Africa at large.

Tohmey: Chai! You have make greatest mistake by selling off your $$, nothing have been putting place dollar heading back to 1,500 and by 2027 it will be 2,500 to 3,000
why you like this. because of your selfish reasons you speculating rubbish
Dshocker: Believe me, the dollar will shoot above N1,500 before December.
The reason why the dollar is dropping, is because the CBN is buying higher and selling lower on Binanace, thereby forcing other competitors to sell at their rate.
So obviously, the CBN is spending billions everyday to artificially lower the value of dollar, and the major question is "For How Long"?
CBN told you this or how did you get the information.
Athena6: Last week I created a thread talking about how my japa plans have been crushed due to the increase in dollar.
Many adviced me to invest in dollar, this was the advice they gave me months ago but I did follow through because I wasn't sure. My last thread hit front page and 90% of the comments were advising me to invest in dollars, one even quoted that in the past 10 years, the dollar haven't fallen but it increases every year.
One even called me a weak minded person and I am scared to take risks. After everything I thought to myself, since so many people felt this dollar will keep on rising, maybe I should invest afterall life is all about risks.
Well guess what, dollar have decreased, I invested 3M in buying dollars and now in today exchange rate. I have 2.6M now and I either cash out now or hope it will increase.
Right now, I am very angry. Those giving me advice should come and contribute the 400k for me o
Another thing, do you think the dollar will increase or should I just cut my loses. I am so tired 😫
