jomonic: EVERY country bans or at least has high tariffs to discourage imports and encourage local growth. That includes USA, European countries, China, South Korea etc. and they are usually having trade WARS against each other on these matter of PROTECTIVE measures! Please get your facts right before MISLEADING others. Thanks. 1 Like |

MusaIbrahim1: Fool, shut ur trap. Instead of allowing massive smuggling because of the old policy which we give the govt zero income the importers can now come forward cleanly and these goods can be heavily taxed by the govt. These goods invariably will become much more expensive at the local market when compared to the locally manufacturers ones as a result of these tax. Many Nigerias won't be able to afford it which will lead to local options. Local producers will also continue to improve their capabilities to meet up with the imported ones. It's a win win for all. 2 Likes |

Buhari is no doubt Block headed and the dullest since independence. Shagari was the only Nigerian president who was a secondary school teacher with standard six, an equivalent of the today OND. Buhari having gone through all the military trainings both overseas and locally is still clearly the dumbest. Can this administration tell us why the ban is lifted other than to say they are dutiable. If you compare the duties and the benefits that will derived form the locally made ones, which is be better? 2 Likes |

obailala: What proof do you have that it was never enforced? Are we now going to play oblivious to the fact that this could impede and discourage local manufacturers? If the picture you paint is truly so, don't you think local textile manufacturers would have cried out? The ban discouraged importation to a large extent as evidenced by the boom we now see in that industry. Ask Oshodi Textile Dealers. Gbemudu said these items were banned because the government wanted to protect the local industries involved in the manufacturing of these goods. So, this government sees no need to protect the local industries, because they want to create revenue? My question goes thus..."at what cost?" Finally, a government that decides before it thinks has arrived. 3 Likes |

anonimi: The colored is what we should be focused on. How high are these tariffs? It should be so high that by the time it enters the Nigerian market, it will be be excessively expensive. If u can't afford it, go for local alternatives. 3 Likes 1 Share |

anonimi: There is no misleading others here as you surmised. That move by Buhari is a smart one because government will earn some revenue from it. In the long run the importers will earn enough capital to invest in either textile or other cottage industries. Aba was booming at a time based on private enterprise. Looks like some government policies are having a knock on effect hence the desperate need to revert. |

lomprico:The United States has one of the best securities and border patrols in the world, yet contrabands like hard drugs still find their way into the country. Indonesia and Malasia have the strictest form of purnishment for hard drugs peddlers. But as we speak, drug peddlers are swinddling large kilos of cocain into these countries despite the hash laws. Truth is, no system is perfect. People will still find ways to smuggle contrabands into a country. This is the evil part of human nature mankind have to deal with. 2 Likes |
