So cute.
They will bring in the sugar in 100kg bags.
They will repack them in ordinary nylons (see through)
They will sell as retail.
We have smugglers that make billions from smuggling, only way to prevent this is to secure the borders.
In Switzerland you cannot bring in meat even if you drive out for a short trip. This is to protect their farmers. Its 100% enforced, they will check your groceries bag and receipt even if you are in a small private car !!
At times i feel like this country is just too large to be ruled by one person.

Or maybe we haven't gotten the right leader that will handle the affairs of the country like a small clan or village.

The way people do things and get away with it is alarming.

I don't understand this sentiment. So who won the election? The North did not vote for Obi. East and West did not vote for Atiku. Tinubu and Atiku split the North. Who would have won the election from your calculation, and how?
You bought the Tinubu's propaganda media lies that the North did not vote for Peter Obi.


Peter Obi got massive votes in:

Nasarawa
Taraba
Plateau
Benue
Kaduna
Sokoto
Adamawa
Borno
Abuja


Are those States in Southwesthuh


Goodluck Jonathan and Obasanjo never won Northwest, Buhari always won Northwest with wide margins yet Goodluck and Obasanjo won.


Make no mistake, Peter Obi got the highest number of total votes cast during 2023 Presidential election.

Peter Obi won Tinubu in Lagos with over a million votes before they rigged it and reduced the margin drastically, my uncle who happened to be an LP Chairman was chased out of the collation center in Lagos when they started changing the results and he raised alarm, they used thugs and security to chase him out.


Peter Obi won Tinubu with over 700k votes in Rivers state before Nyesome Wike changed the whole result to Tinubu's favor.


Peter Obi won Tinubu in Benue state with over 500k votes before it was also rigged. Same happened in Plateau.

They rigged and massively reduced Peter Obi's legitimate votes in Borno and voters cried out on live videos on election day but all you gullible Nigerians held on to was that North didn't vote Obi because he is Igbo, says who?



When it comes to who scored the highest number of votes cast in 2023 Presidential election, Peter Obi won, but what I cannot say is if he did got the required national spread to be declared winner and if INEC had remained neutral and fair by allowing the polling unit result upload on irev to work, we would have known this truth

Obi importer business model in the mud.

Let me wait for the Agulu fraud to come and condemn this policy after mouthing off on consumption to production bullshit
you are both ignorant and naive. He is in the distribution business and whatever goods that are in circulation in Nigeria are part of the goods and services within the value chain of his businesses. Wether those goods are imported are immaterial. As long as the goods are in circulation in Nigeria, his businesses have systems in place to exploit them to their advantage.

That's the point! He did NOT get the required national spread! Tinubu did! Tinubu could not rig Obi in Lagos which was his stronghold and where he controlled the governorship, how then can he massively rig Northern states? He was able to rig Rivers due to Wike. No, the North simply did not vote Obi in large enough numbers to give him national spread. They did for Tinubu. Just as East and West denied Atiku national spread.

Go and check the monthly death rates by violence on the US, UK, India and compare. You're only a fear monger exaggerating the situations to promote your selfish agenda.
they kill people all over the world including Antarctica but the difference is the accountability that checks impunity and lawlessness unlike in Nigeria . In 2023 more than 500 was murdered in plateau state on Christmas day. In the last few weeks hundreds have been killed majorly benue, plateau ,, zamfara , katsina and most parts of Nigeria but nobody had been brought to book or charged to court or at least jailed outside the law like was done to rights activists like Dele farotimi, VDM etc even in nations at war people as still held accountable except in a lawless zoo like Nigeria not fit in any way to be called a country

Young lady, I am speaking facts not hearsay


Listen, I came down to Lagos because of that 2023 Presidential election. I manned the 3 polling units in my estate. We even did a casual bet with APC men that Labor will win all the 3 polling units, at the end, Peter Obi won all the 3 polling units, we all were there and counted it; APC, PDP and LP reps and voters were all present as we counted and Obi won Presidential with wide margins, PDP won House of Reps and APC won Senate, we copied results and left as the INEC officials struggled to upload the results on irev.


To my greatest surprise the next day, the result they uploaded on irev showed that APC/Tinubu won all the 3 polling units Obi won and he won with wide margins followed by PDP/Atiku that came third.


Honestly only God will reward Tinubu, INEC and all supporters of that injustice against Peter Obi just because he is Igbo.


Nigeria is going nowhere until you guys repent and stop supporting glaring evil.


When I showed the result to a very popular APC man in my estate, a rich man, he laughed at me that didn't he tell me and others not to waste our votes on Obi that Tinubu will win?



You can imagine the audacity. Whenever I remember the incident it still hurt me till today, so don't bring back those ugly memories please angry

Hatred and bitterness comment, when GEJ was there why didn't he implement it, instead all the money we made on crude oil was stolen by his government.
I have made my point
If Nigeria is doing well all of us would feel safe and enjoy

No one wishes his/her own country, motherland, fatherland bad

I have always wanted the best for this country where every human is treated with dignity and respect.

I don't know about how you feel or what you wish for the country.

Making stupid policies and Ban without putting mechanisms in place to help cushion the effect of his useless bans and policies. Banning imports means Nigeria needs to start producing but how can you produce when there is no power? A whole FCT Abuja rationing electricity and there are places where they don't get straight 4hours of uninterrupted power.

Police are there to raid people's businesses so are fraudulent tax collectors who are contracted by the government,you try to power your own business but the cost of diesel or petrol will almost frustrate you out of business..All these cos of BAD LEADERSHIP. Oga no be banning imports make the environment conducive for local businesses to thrive.

Your import based economic model that relies on illicit funds has been a major setback to both our industrial base and currency debasement.

Go and farm.
are you farming?

“We continue to import sugar despite the existence of the Nigerian Sugar Council and several local producers. This policy will change that,” he said.
for a country that has so many hospitals, how come tinubu always goes to france for medical treatment?

But that was LAGOS, where Tinubu was lord, which Obi still won! Now compare to Northern states where Tinubu had no such clout, plus Buhari didn't want him as president. HOW did he rig those?? Answer: he DIDN'T! Not by any amount that would have made a difference. North simply didn't vote for Obi as Lagos and Abuja did!

God spoke to you and told you he wasn't ordained?

The presumption and arrogance that made you believe you are the mouth of God on a matter you know nothing about is appalling.

And I am pretty sure you will call yourself a bishop or daddy GO somewhere.

A Giant Step, Accompanied by Cymbals of Wailings

A good shot by Mr President. Any economy that's too import driven will not grow. That said, most of those kicking against the policy are those whose trade is import driven.

For those saying Tinubu stole mandate, I ask whose mandate? Peter Obi didn't have any won mandate, to start with. You can cry all you like, Tinubu is ur president and there is precious little u can.do about it.

To the mentally deficient, as u careen from one emotional outburst to another, try to see things from the prism of logic, not tribal lenses.
How is it a good shot? We don't even have industrial capacity, power and good road network for industrialization and you are here capping.
See don't make the mistake of Lamenting over the high cost of goods when ot starts.
