Bring Seized Substandard Tyres To Aba Instead Of Burning Them - Dr Ikpeazu To FG by UNIZIK1stSon(op): 12:21pm On Feb 28, 2017
Abia State Governor, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu has urged the Federal Government to consider transporting the substandard tyres worth over 5 billion Naira seized from dubious Chinese Businessmen to Aba to be used for further Production instead of Disposing them.

Speaking at the launch of the 'Change Begins with Me' campaign in Abia Yesterday, Dr Ikpeazu Stated:

"I understand that the Federal Government through the Standards Organization of Nigeria has seized several millions of substandard tyres worth about 5 billion Naira from some dubious Chinese business men.

As an environmentalist, I am worried about how these tyres will be disposed. We can't burn that number of tyres because it will have severe negative consequences for the environment. Maybe, there may be a diplomatic angle to whole thing.
On a second thought, Honorable Minister, we in Abia can be of help here.

Let them bring those tyres to Aba and our boys at Port Harcourt Road will use them to produce several items like fan belts, conveyor belts, etc which can be sold at very good prices".

The Governor should immediately initiate the processes already or else half of those tires would find its way back into the market some how....

He was d last person i ever wanted to be governor but am amazed d way he thinks about his people. He is such a lovely governor. Remembering d hardwork of his people and even going around marketing their products. He may not have enof Resources like ambode and Wike but surely he has wat it takes to be a leader

he is only speaking as a Layman with no Knowledge of the safety and acceptable industrial standards... the implication of having a substandard tyre on your wheels under the worst roads on planet earth... simply means that there is a possibility of your tyres blowing up in the middle of the road, and what happens when your on a speed of 90 - 120km/hrhuh death...! Nigerians plz say no to substandard goods, you deserve the best.... not sub-standard goods and dont forget, that the mumu Governor is using the best tyres on earth, certified and standard tyres on his cars... so be wise, dont buy your death with your hard earned money and dont sell death to your fellow country men. except he will ensure some of the tyres does not find its way to the market....thanks

Ikpeazu is right. What is wrong with waste recycling?

I support the idea provided that boys will not go and repackage the tyres for sale grin grin grin grin
