What is the information for? Are they illegal?

How come we are importing salt, suger, diesel, petrol? 🤔

Oludiary:
I think Dangote said there’s no more importation of petrol?

oga they did not mention petrol.

Okay. What are we to do with the news ? We wan cook soup ?

How do you preserve fresh fish on a ship without freezing it ?

There are varieties of ships designed for different products. Fishing vessel is used for fish and other sea foods.

This ship is mostly made of freezer inside of it to preserve the seafoods pending thr time they would spend on sea before arriving at the port for distributions.

Uuuju:
Can't we produce all those things in our con3?

What do they produce in a zoo apart from animals? Even the animals in the zoo are suffering from kwashioko

Kewtt:
Reflecting on the food crisis from a year ago, it is clear how the actions of Northern suppliers shaped the market. At that time, many Northern traders intentionally hoarded essential goods, driving the price of beans as high as 180,000. Today, that same quantity has plummeted to 53,000.

Last year, we faced severe shortages of basic staples like onions, tomatoes, and pepper. Northern suppliers boldly claimed they would rather export these products to neighboring countries than sell them locally, forcing the government to step up border policing.

In response to this, the Tinubu administration (Asiwaju) strategically approved food import permits. This move has directly countered the hoarding tactics used by these regional suppliers. Many of them took out significant bank loans to stock up on food, betting on continued scarcity to maximize profits. Now that imported goods are stabilizing the market, those who hoarded are facing bankruptcy—a direct consequence of trying to hold the country's food supply to ransom.

You captured almost Nigeria situation starting from 2022 till date.

Hoarding should be a crime. If we are saving in a food bank because there's excess it's understandable. But all those people hoarding during scarcity to further push the prices up should be classified as criminals. That's economic sabotage

yehn...yehn...yenh.... Big big talk and irrelevant questions.

You lots closed our boarder for years and ended up impoverishing and starving Nigerians with this ye-ye Buhari mentality. That made no useful impact.

Local rice became more expensive that foreign rice, beans became food for only the rich.

Abeg keep that your mentality inside your house and bedroom. We don't want to hear it again.

No country in this world has attained 100% sufficiency.

kenben:
This is economic sabotage. Why important fresh fish and salt? Items we should be exporting. Can't Dangote supply diesel at a cheaper cost?

This same mentality was what the uneducated and ineffectual Buhari came with and ended up impoverishing and starving Nigerians.

That memory is still fresh in our head.

Ojuntana:
They are referring to frozen fish mackerel popularly called Titus and the other one that's bony
Both are not produced in Nigeria

Is it legal to import frozen fish ?

They should please import Cement too. DANGOTE'S cement is too costly

Odin13:

weezychuks:

Ok thanks for clarification .

DelilahMakinde:
I'm equally aghast at this revelation

Must be the crude salt, unrefined.

Uuuju:

You can't satisfy everybody, hou all shouted hunger when government banned these items, you protested they should opened the border ,government actually created the problem so cutizens can take advantage of the opportunity and ventire into it without competition from import but you people are lazy and expect government to put fish ,rice on your table. Now the import is here again, deal with it.

Oludiary:
I think Dangote said there’s no more importation of petrol?

Dangote said, does not mean other profiteers from the importation fraud (like Obi) will not sabotage the process. Even if it means to bring fake products so as to remain competitive at a lower selling price. Explain how Nigeria aspiring president will be the highest importer of tomato paste - Can't he use all the money stashed in off-shore accounts (pandora) to setup a manufacturing hub that will employ thousands of youths and create jobs and cheaper good? No! he prefers to run the country down by being an importer......

They wont tell you that the same ship is leaving empty.

Ojuntana:
Yes

Okay,
Which countries are major exporters and how do they keep it freeze for the duration on board .. I want to learn more on this . Is like something one could likely venture into this year

Is a lucrative one .. actually thought it was a ban and a bad deal

Please enlighten me. I’m much interested

Thank you

Wow Nigeria don dey import crude oil ?

Uuuju:
Can't we produce all those things in our con3?

Nigeria should have no business importing Bulk Wheat (land and temp) , Bulk Salt(we can mine salt rock), bulk soya bean we have the land and environment to produce soya beans and maize

Ojuntana:
Dangote will not like this at all and with good reason
But he should also check out the prices of his products

how does dangote products favoured nigerians.can you show me any of the dangote products that an ordinary Nigerian can afford.

I know some import from Chile and Morocco but as for the freezing part I don't have an idea

Why don't we just produce these simple things here in Nigeria?🤦 It's a pity.

OP and you are there to count the 11 ships and you are there when customs opened the ships? And the custom took you inside the vessels to count the containers, opened it and showed you all you listed are inside the containers? AND YOU ARE TOLD IT BELONG TO THE FEDERAL GOVT?

Before I descend on you provide all the proof to all I asked above?

I'm waiting plsss.

Cus I can see you copied and pasted it from somewhere. I need video evidence ASAP orelse...

Thank you so much.. will research from here..

It seems they are proud of it, how many ships laden with our resources have left the shores of Nigeria this month?

PAPIJAID:
Abeg let them import if that will solve this hyper inflation problem, Buhari tried to let Nigerians produce rice instead of importing but what did we get...abeg import if Nigerians will be able to afford it

let them import o atleast e go get wre e go touch.

Aren't we producing these anymore in Nigeria? Why are we like this? Abi una de use the importation to siphon our common wealth? Pity poor Nigerians na and save the foreign currency 💲, I take God beg you 🙏

Same question that made the Daura man lock borders for 1year just to allow northern farmers sell grains at x10 raise to power 30 of actual price.

Una don start again.
