The problem really atarted from OBJ who waa sold the idea of banning cement imports in the belief that the country could be self sufficient in it. He never saw he was simply satisfying someone's greed.

Cement isn't the kind of product you bamn as it#s the price is very sensitive to transport cost. A lot of imported cement might become uncompetitive once transported far from the ports.

That's why cement plants are located close to limestone deposits.
obj offered more than one person the leeway into local cement production and cannot be blamed for lack of competition in cement pricing. Generally Nigerians are good at price inflation practices.

If border opens and the prices crash, what will happen to few remaining companies in the country that can't compete with foreign companies? If companies pack off completely in ur country, how would people in ur country get jobs?

Can govt in ur country provide jobs for everyone in ur country?
companies are shutting down and relocating due to high cost of doing business here.

Thanks to the Honourable minister of works, he is the first elite that will speak about price control of any commodity most especially, cement that we produced locally.

No infrastructure and policy to stimulate local production. That's why everyone is importing because it's cheaper to import than produce here.

If you beg them to sell below their cost price and they say no, you make them the enemy of the country. That's the political culture here.

Ideally, you shouldn't beg anyone. Instead, you go and fix those factors that make local production expensive in Nigeria. That's what leaders do.
thesame thing with rice
