This is what APC goons have refused to see, they kept shouting change and couldn't realize the change is here already. GEJ till 2019. The Transformation/Change of Nigeria has started, Haters should go on exile.

BMW has also shown interest in building a plant in Nigeria due to the incessant Labour tussles in South Africa. Toyota, Ford, others in the pipeline, more jobs for our teaming youths and someone has the guts to call GEJ "clueless"? "clueless" definitely got a new meaning. I want to be "clueless" if this is what it means.

Singing......they wan be President
they no get paper o
they wan be president
Naa wah ooooo.

dgr8truth:
If our past leaders had worked the way GEJ is working, we would have been singing a different song by now.
Sadly, our past leaders went on corruption spree, neglected our infrastructures, and refuse building new ones, and so we suffered for years, but God in his infinite mercy and grace rescued us gave us GEJ who is working evidently, so that we can once again believe in nigeria and hope for a better tomorrow, still some nigerians are shouting change, they want to go back to egypt where they ate cucumbers and all sort of nonsense. It will never happen!

I and other patriotic nigerians have and will continue to join hands with GEJ to further our match to the promise land.

Those who are shouting for change if they are not ok with our resolve they can buy a one way ticket and leave nigeria and us in our optimism.

#GEJForContinuedDevelopment

ParrotNG:
This does not deserve any form of applaud. What is this? Utter rubbish! Where are the roads to ply with these heavy boxes? What fuel do we buy? What service/maintenance structure could make this cars useful to the masses? Is this for Nairalanders or Presidency, National Assembly and Political Officers? Truth be said, we need low cost cars for masses not these ones civil servants can't afford. People! Try to be real and don't be deceived. I don't belong to any Political Party but I hate mediocrity. This is nothing.

Yes, Jonathan is working and people are hating.

God bless Jonathan.

Gej till 2019

Most of these people dont know their left from their right hand.
Buying and Selling may not be that difficult as long as you can mix some "fake products" in-between to even-out your profit.

But when it comes to basic economics of a surviving business, these clowns are on a long thing.

For example:
Let us assume South Africa (just for examples sake) which has about 50,000MW of electricity manufactures this same car that is supposedly manufactured by Innoson, [size=18pt]with automation due to stable electricity[/size].....

*In terms of numbers, it will produce about 10,000 units..... when Nigeria is still labouring over 50units using [size=18pt]manual production due to lack of Electricity[/size]
*If S/Africa uses ten men to supplement that automation...... Nigeria will need like 500 men. to produce that 20 in a month

Now, when we look at COST of PRODUCTION ( WAGES of Workers, materials, ground space, e.t.c), you will easily see that to break-even, Nigeria might need to sell its own vehicle for say $50,000 ...to cover all cost and still make small profit..


While S/Africa may just sell its own at $20,00 each to cover all costs and make profit.

So, all things being equal, (lets even assume all other factors like quality of the vehicle are the same) in a globalized market place, who will buy the same vehicle for TWICE THE PRICE,... when they can get it cheaper elsewhere for HALF THE PRICE?

If the Plant does not sell its STOCK, it will become short on operating funds (except maybe Jonathan will start subsidizing it as well, just like Fuel! )
In a short while, it will fold-up! ...or perpetually depend on Govt subvention
This is one of the reasons products from China for example, could sell very cheap (automation leading to mass production)

We use to have the likes of Volkswagen, Peugeot, FIAT, and many more "Vehicle Assembly" in this country (and many more textiles industries who rely on constant power supply) in the past but one after another, they fold-up due to "bad operating environment".

You can build a "White Elelphant Project" like this, just to fool those who have no sense but in a short while, your folly would be exposed.

A sensible Govt will first focus on INFRASTRUCTURE..... the most important being ELECTRICITY.
With that in place, all other developmental projects will be come sustainable

Fraud of a policy, yeye baka. You put Cart before horse and expect miracle you people are failure for supporting this shallow Idea, tell me where they see iron or steel they used for the car?
What about the tyre and the others. Our iron/ steel mining and production must be working to the full capacity first and the electricity must be regular. You take part of motor to Nigeria for assemblage and you are celebrating. Group of failures.
If GEJ still advertise his achievement of 6 years, it means he did nothing at allll .
Nigerian have decided to March Buhari into Aso rock and GEJ out from Aso rock.
APC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wristwatch:


If your child did not come home one day and u later found out she was abducted by bokos, how will u feel?

A government that record the lost security in d history of 9ja.

myproperty:


politicians account for less than 1% of cars driven in Nigeria. Cars are already being driven in Nigerian roads.

The cause for celebration is this:
1. In Oct 3rd 2013, the federal government introduced a new automotive policy which resulted in the production of the first made in Nigeria car called innoson (http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/nnoson-unveils-first-truly-made-in-nigeria-cars/195917/) and they employed 7200 staffs in the plastic and automobile section of the company not to talk about the indirect jobs created, which as to do with dealers, suppliers of raw materials and other needs to the firm.

2. Then came hyundai and Nissan, whether made in Nigeria or assembled in Nigeria. More jobs are created directly and indirectly and definitely the price cannot be as high like before.
The fact is that the government industrial policy is showing positive result, no wonder some production firms that were dead are beginning to function again, such as some textile industries and breweries and new firms are springing up in automobile,breweries,agriculture,aviation etc.

in essence this policy had strengthened the economy by creating more jobs, sooner or later the need to cut cost of their vehicles because of competition would lead to sourcing for steel locally for the purpose of producing vehicles that are being assembled.

The Buhari you mentioned ruled Nigeria at a time and those things you said he would do, he never did them then, except otherwise he is a different Buhari now.
Come to think of it how do you know he would do it?

atlwireles:
Nissan is the first vehicle manufacturer to build a car in Nigeria since the country introduced its new automotive policy.


Vehicle manufacturing companies have started building plants to make cars in Nigeria with Nissan being the first of its kind to achieve this.

“Nigeria has always been a very key market for us and I think it was a logical step to move towards. We are also building the Almera and the volumes are increasing on a daily basis. We are very pleased with the result we are getting out of the plants in Nigeria,” Mike Whitfield, managing director of Nissan South Africa told CNBC Africa.

Nissan Nigeria rolled out its first 'made-in-Nigeria' vehicles, marking a key milestone in the company's expansion plan, and gave a boost to Nigeria's automotive policy which aims to encourage local production of vehicles.

“Obviously, as one increases production levels it does produce the economics of sales and I think the process is a journey. Our objective as we continue to go forward is to improve the cost effectiveness of the vehicles manufactured in Nigeria.”

For this project to grow and improve and for the cost of these vehicles in Nigeria to be more affordable for the people, there is a need for more vehicles manufacturing companies. This will help the local industries to grow and provide better opportunity for the people by also creating job opportunities.

“First and foremost it is very important that we see as many manufacturers as possible moving and supporting the automobile policy because with that approach we will end up being able to grow the local component industry. There is an effect of that in not only job creation but also skill creation. From a Nissan objective, yes, it is our objective to move forward to ensure that we can produce a car in the Nigerian market that meets the need of the population and addresses the issue of affordability.”
