Right in thick of trouble, our Prez is in Obudu doing his own NOUN crash reading.
but, really, what manner of books might our Prez be reading to fix Naija`s many problems?

perhaps, Eze Goes to School?
or Trouble in Form Six?

My people, what might he be reading this time.

The goat has turned back into a man.

the man is currently in detention but the only problem the crack team of cracker eating policemen are faced with is, the man is deaf and dumb. and, blind too, with occasional warapa seizures.
AutosRe: 40ft Container, What Do I Do With It? by knotty(m): 10:10am On Jan 26, 2009
hey Bros,

is the container yours?

that you imported using a liner`s container does not make the container your property. but if you had purchased the container overseas and intend using it to ship down your cars, then you are entitled to selling it off.
but, if i may advise you, that your undeveloped piece of land, take the container there and keep it. it will be by far more valuable later than now.

Sultan

I have observed that quite a number of contributors on the subject have a good grasp of the matter discussed.

I did not reckon that Sultan will equally pass by.

Therefore, for your sake I will explain what 20% of Duty is.

Government collects its revenue on import on a percentage of the CIF.

C being Cost of the goods
I being cost of Insurance
F being Cost of Freight

Pure industrial Machinery, medical equipment, certain medicaments among others are 0% rated.

Basic industrial raw materials, spare parts, computers, semi-finished goods are rated at 5%.

Finished goods that are not manufactured in Nigeria have 20% Duty rate. CARS OF 1000cc BUT NOT EXCEEDING 2500cc fall in this category.

The luxury cars Carshopper, Inspired, etc import are 50% duty rated. But how many can truly pay the correct duty?

I hope my Standard 6 explanation has adequately fed your PHD ignorance.
AutosRe: The Port Congestion In Lagos! Are You Affected Too? by knotty(m): 2:05pm On Jan 23, 2009
@jafour
Take this.

At the start of E-PAYMENT regime, one of the first crop of containers at Apapa port was found to have deliberately described his consignment wrongly with the intent of evading 20% duty on the goods.
Well, his containers were allowed to pass out of the port with instructions that he must come and settle the duty difference via a Debit Note issued.
The agent reported to the importer of the development and got his assurance that he will make good the payment.
THEY NEVER CAME BACK. The shipment was not Valid for Exchange.
Following from that experience, in the case of any scanned container found to have concealed or under-invoiced, duty payment must be made in full before such containers are released. And Container drivers are cashing in on this to milk importers dry with DEMURRAGE ON STANDBY.
We are all involved in making the ports congested.
All these car importers lade their containers with allsorts. In a container STC say, 4units of used motor cars, you find tear-rubber (2009) edition cars, brimming at the seams with computers, furniture, clothes, food items (as though there is no food in Nigeria).
These are some the tangential issues we too as a people must face before we start heaping all blames at the doorsteps of government. Government (most especially a lame duck like this one) cannot do it alone

AutosRe: The Port Congestion In Lagos! Are You Affected Too? by knotty(m): 11:07am On Jan 09, 2009
The problems at the ports are humungous, to say the least.

Let them have meetings and seminars for eternity, nothing, nothing again, I dare say, will change.

The only seeming improvement we have witnessed in recent time came only from the concessionaires.

APMT (MAERSK LINE OWNERS) perhaps have done more in 3years than the Nigerian Government has done in 20years.
If only Government Agencies will have business-like mentality of these private investors, if regulatory bodies will care-less about how much they can milk hapless importers dry and think of themselves as part of the solution, if customs will be more awake to their responsibilities and IF IMPORTERS WILL CONCEAL LESS, BE MORE PRONE TO PAYING CORRECT AND ACTUAL DUTIES, only then, can we hope for a friendly operational port.

I am a clearing agent, but I do not clear cars. I deal more in Industrial goods and machinery. So, I know what I am saying.

on whose authority did the Chinese hotel use video recording on their guest at the hotel?
so, if i am in china my hotel room privacy can be violated at will? come to think of it, what guest do in their rooms should be sacrosanct, or shouldn`t it?
