TheGoodJoe:
The Companies Peter Obi bought from were manufacturers. Peter Obi was the exporter. He bought it from their companies and exported to Africa.

Freethinker87:
PO is not an exporter, he is a distributor. He ran a successful marketing firm in the UK back in the day. He was responsible for introducing Heinze products and making them a household name in Nigeria. Ovaltine too, and some flavoured wines. He was also a major distributor for local manufacturers such as Coca-Cola, Yao foods, and others.

He can't be an exporter of goods he distributes, he's not even an importer in the right sense of the word. He's only a distributor, which means, he enters into a legal contract with these manufacturers to be their sole distributor in Nigeria.

Kaysalas:
I really did wish you had that common sense, but unfortunately, you don't. So because he imports goods from Europe, he is automatically the exporter from Europe as well. Chai!

Kaysalas:
Your case is irredeemable, wallow in your ignorance

Treadway:
Amdman who is currently in Canada and has been shipping cars from Canada to Nigeria, is he an importer or exporter?

Simple yes or no will suffice pls..no vapid storytelling

Kaysalas:
Please edit out the posts that are not mine, let's have a meaningful conversation

SmartyPants:
a. Insecurity. This is a tough one and he isn't telling us how he will do it so we can't be sure he really has a plan.

kingyakos:
Ok

IkeAnumudu:
You mean the same SABmiller that has managed to successfully reduce Anambra’s unemployment rate to only 40% by “employing 60% of all employable Anambrarians in its Anambra complex”?

#smh #yeyedeysmell

SmartyPants:
Okay, sounds something like a plan. Has he mentioned the major products he expects Nigeria to export using this value chain?

Kaysalas:
First off, you didn't ask a Yes or No question, therefore simple Yes or No cannot suffice.
To your question; someone who is based in Canada and sells cars to Nigeria is an EXPORTER, while the person here in Nigeria, who pays dollars to get the cars here to Nigeria is the importer. (Assuming a two party trade, which should be the case anyway)
Notice how I intentionally removed shipping from my answer. Then go back to read the origin of this argument for better understanding.

Freethinker87:
Stop quoting yourself man, you're not that important. You're only deceiving yourself.

IkeAnumudu:
You really are desperate to earn your pay, aren’t you? You are also desperate to hoodwink the public!

The fact is, he was hardly able to answer that question properly.

What is so difficult in answering the simple question of how a candidate wants to move Nigeria from consumption to production? What?

He has mouthed many slogans that he knows appeals mostly to youths, especially the ones who were either not born or just mere infants when he governor of Anambra in 2 unspectacular terms.

It’s such a shame that every time someone has scratched below the surface, it instantly becomes clear that that PETER OBI IS EMPTY!!!

Do you also want to provide the complete transcript of the CNN interview?

For crying out loud, this is a pattern. Your IPOB/Obidient/UGM/ESN candidate is all noise and no substance.

He only escapes when sympathetic and dull interviewers do not dig deep, either out of solidarity or out of emptiness themselves.

The economy of a huge nation like Nigeria is far beyond simple CONTAINER economics.

Such a sorry sight Peter Obi’s beginning to cut.

TheGoodJoe:
You are missing a vital point.

How did the products leave Europe and come to Africa?

Peter Obi created the demand here, AND EXPORTED THEM TO AFRICA.

Please, he was a major exporter from Europe. He handled the logistics all through.

Freethinker87:
The manufacturer has the sole right to export whether you're buying through CIF or FOB.

RingRoadMafia:
Strutting your stupidity like it's a virtue.

TheGoodJoe:

However, Peter Obi took the goods from the manufacturers and exported them to Nigeria. So he was an exporter then.

Finito.

kingyakos:
Ok

begoniaa:
Wow! Is this how you're going to keep going "sounds like a plan, not yet the final end result, has he mentioned this specific detail?"

Now I see your moniker is an apt description of all you've been asking on this thread.

Freethinker87:
Not yet, but we know there's going to be a major drive towards being self-sufficient in food production so that food prices can stabilize. With that in mind, we are sure there's going to be heavy investment in staples such as rice, vegetables, cassava, etc. Words have it that he was behind the development of the master plan that made 30% cassava flour mix mandatory for baked goods. That policy made Nigeria a net exporter of cassava today.

We are expecting to see such policies in the process value chain. The best thing for an entrepreneur to do now is to secure some pieces of land in the North or start working towards building a small food processing plant there.

Freethinker87:
No, you can't do that. Are you an importer? I'm not either but as an entrepreneur, I had to understand every aspect of the market so that I can take advantage when the opportunity presents itself.

TheGoodJoe:
You are just talking off-point. The point is simple. Peter Obi got the goods from Europe to Africa. He handled the logistics. Thus, he is an exporter.

Finito.

You argue to win not to learn. It's OK, I concede, you win!

Cheers.

It's okay if you don't know the answer. Don't be hysterical to deflect.

Makes you look silly.
