All.these chest-beater crew will.not fail.to amaze us....there are so many Car assembling companies in Nigeria doing well. And making good sales in and outside of the country ...but one thing about this Nyamiri people is that they will. always wants to show themselves ....Jamaica buying your cars....who cares?

The Jamaican High Commissioner to Nigeria, Esmond Reid, says his country was planning to source for vehicles from Innoson Vehicles Manufacturing (IVM) in Nigeria.

Mr Reid, in the company of Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, made this known during a facility tour of IVM plant in Nnewi, Anambra State on Saturday.

He said: “For us, it is a tremendous opportunity to witness vehicle manufacturing taking place here in Nigeria, which is one of our brothers in the south.''

“It is also a chance to be able to discuss commercial opportunities for sourcing vehicles from Nigeria.''

“This is my first visit. I will go and consult with my stakeholders back home in Jamaica to look at the timeline and determine the negotiations and engagements and when we will start the business of sourcing the vehicles”.

The high commissioner described IVM plant as “top class”, promising to encourage Jamaican citizens to come and see for themselves.

“I congratulate the management of this company and I’m very grateful to the minister for making this visit possible for me. This can become the start of something great,” he said.

Commenting, Mr Onyeama called for strict enforcement of the Presidential Executive Order mandating government officials to buy and use Nigeria.

“I’m very proud. This plant is world class compared to some of the vehicles manufacturing companies I have seen in some other countries. Innoson is doing well.''

“Left to me, every government official should be obliged to buy and use a Nigerian manufactured car. There is a Presidential Executive Order that requires government officials to buy Nigeria.

“That order has to be imposed and made mandatory. In France, it is impossible to see a French Government official driving a non-French car, same in Japan, Korea, UK and US.''

“We have to do the same here. This will encourage and support our citizens and demystify technology,” he said.

The minister said he facilitated the visit to IVM when the Jamaican High Commissioner requested to see the impressive things going on in Nigeria.

“We consider these Caribbean countries as our brothers and sisters and we want to increase the level of trade and collaboration among ourselves,” he said.

In his remarks, the Chairman of IVM, Innocent Chukwuma, appreciated the Federal Government for supporting manufacturing companies in the country.

Mr Chukwuma urged Nigerians to always patronise his products, assuring them of quality and durable vehicles.

The South-East President, Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mine and Agriculture, Honfery Nkeonadi, lauded IVM for making Africans proud with innovative products.

The shut up is best for u

Single metro of tiny distance in just a single city in all of Nigeria is that one an achievement? The metro is more like a Disney display Or a bridge that was supposed to have been done 55years ago, abi the railway that even the poorest countries has done 100 years ago yet Nigeria is still dreaming of railways in 2023.

You are either delusional or u lack every sense of reality or maybe u are living one century backwards.

There is nothing like development or progress in Nigeria for the past 60years and Nigeria government is posed on laying and giving falls hopes to ignoramus like you except u benefit from the rot.

Anyways, with people like u in majority in Nigeria, Nigeria leaders will continue to sale and buy Nigeria for many more years

Look at the election coming up, pdapc, pdlp, pdnnpp. Nigeria is simply amusement park

Aboguede:
Nigeria and imaginary investments

All the news in Nigeria about investments and developments are always 'near completion'

I have reluctantly come to understand and believe that Nigeria is 100% a scam

Bede2u:
so basically we shouldn't try to move from consumption to production because it will inconvenient some yoruba people? Instead we should recruit 50 million youths in the army and feed them agbado and corn?
This is why everyone needs to vote obi to shame people like you that have help Africa down with Myopic reasoning of short-term benefits

Parachoko:
When Chairman Mao did what Obi claim he will do, millions of people became very poor and millions starve to death during the great leap forward

Parachoko:
Nah so Buhari dey think when he closed the Boarders in 2019, we can still see how disastrous it turn out to be.

ican2020:
National interest comes first before personal interest that’s his philosophy and it is our duty to help him achieve it by voting for PO massively this month

cicero:
OP, from your write up you have set out to deliberately misinform the public and create doubt around one of Peter Obi’s sterling and unique pitches. You are not interested in intelligent discussion.

I would rather ask, why are you doing this, is it for tribalism or religion? Is it as your side hustle to justify your pay? Or are you simply a stone cold sadist who doesn’t want Nigeria to make progress?

JASONjnr:
This post is senseless....


Your knowledge is very limited to the understanding of the policy....

olisaEze:
Sorry Op, but you seem to be describing everything wrong with PMB’s Administration. Money circulation has never been tighter, our land borders in the South have been on lock for years now with a very high tariff slammed on importation with no resulting increase in production

the high cost of secondhand cars is not due to $ alone. The only place you can get the official pump price of petrol is in an NNPC gas station, but for the past six months Nigerians have been buying fuel at exhorting rates, so where has the subsidy been hiding??

Obi only spoke of hourly rates to boost productivity, how come you’re the only one that heard wage cuts?? We’re in a financial crisis because of borrowing for infrastructure, and you think it should be increased... are you okay upstairs??

More than 60% of our health workers and many other professionals have already japa’d you haven’t been living in mars, have you?? The only reason Nigerians have not staged another endSARS type of protest is because they don’t want to hear any excuse to postpone the elections and delay an Obi presidency. Take that hope away and watch the real political turmoil unfold in a very bloody way!

Elders my foot
Chained, slaved,failed elders who need their advice.
Good for nothing elders abeg the youths want to take their life and country from useless hopeless elders
It will not be wicked to say elder go and ......

MissLeslie:
If this is true, we don't need to blame Buhari

Bioko2:
You're a shameless cocksúcker

No, his knowledge is not limited he knows what he's doing. He is trying to extend Tinubu family's slave-regime to cover the entire nation of Nigeria

satelliteDISH:
Op, by your analysis on consumption to production, you do not mean well for Nigeria.
U are trying to cause an unnecessary panic among the less educated.

If he decides to slash off wardrobe and newspaper allowance of politicians and also stop crude oil theft alone, he would have reduced Nigeria problems by @least 30%.

If he decides to channel this money alone into electricity and education, the economy will gradually starts to pick up beyond your widest imagination.

This is basic Economics 101 that your bulaba balablue party failed with F11 results.

India of all places...these guys get liver sha

Zulum500:

All I have to say is thank God for giving us Peter Obi.

A new Nigeria is possible

LegendHero:
