wirinet: You seem not to knw the difference between consultant and campaign manager or even spokesman. He is a consultant meaning he gives advice and feedbacks to Atiku and his spokespeople, he also carries out research on social media about the feelings, needs and wants of the Nigerian people and transmit to Atiku and his team. Get sense this year please |

itchie: Was the job even advertised? So in a country of 170 million people, Atiku could not find one qualified Nigerian for the position? Most Nigerians have inferiority complex and think anything white or non-black is superior. And then you wonder why Nigeria is such a mess of a country. SMH. |

wirinet: hargbolahan0 omohayek Buy made in Nigeria mantra is killing the country. Countries like individuals do well when they focus energy on the things they do well and not on the things they suck at China industrialization was anchored export and that's the way to go. That's the way Japan South Korea Taiwan followed. They had an export or perish philosophy Protectionism encourages companies to be noncompetitive and that is one reason the country's manufacturers are terrified of imports even from fellow ECOWAS countries. Most importantly there are a million and one goods the country can produce competitively and therefore should stop pouring money into the things that the country lacks comparative advantage in. Also speaking on cars, Pat Utomi who worked for a car assembly plant in the 1980's said it will be best that the country focuses on niches in the car industry rather than the whole For instance, imagine that Nigeria accounted for 10% of global tyre production or 10% of brake pad production That will be far more beneficial rather than producing cars where the captive market is too small to manufacture cars competitively 2 Likes 1 Share |

grandstar: I am encouraged that a few people understands the way modern economics works, because it seems most people and the various governments are stuck in 1960s economic principles where international trade was difficult and highly regulated, so countries were required to be self sufficient in most things. Today parts for any manufactured products can come from a dozen different countries? So it makes sense to specialise. You specialise in areas you have comparative advantage. China is a unique country in that that the government promoted the creation of industrial zones that produced numerous simple parts to form a formidable supply chain for China and the rest of the world. The government invested heavily in infrastructure and developed an educational system to support these industrial zones. For now, no one can compete in producing parts for industries around the world. That is why the trade war with china will also hurt the US badly, as China would still be essential in the supply chain of goods made in the US. I honestly do not see the wisdom of manufacturing a car in Nigeria. We do not have the man power, technology, infrastructure and supply chain to make a car in Nigeria, the best we can do is import most of the parts or components and then assemble. 3 Likes |

I can tell you 100% a Nigerian youth can do more for half the price they are paying this white man here. when this criminal politicians have finally bleed us dry they will simply relocate their families abroad. which FYI their kids are already abroad. pdp,apc non of this people give a shit. now Buhari is now saying elect me I won't fail you guys the second time hahaha. how did we get here? |

grandstar:I completely agree. It's as if nobody who has ever had any influence on Nigeria's economic policies has ever attended a basic macroeconomics course or bothered to learn anything about the East Asian "growth miracle": it's incredibly frustrating to still see the same old failed ideas about import substitution and "self sufficiency" being parroted as if they hadn't been discredited decades ago. 3 Likes |

urahara:It isn't really something "a country" knows, it's something discovered at the level of individual firms. For example, the British didn't think Nigeria had any particular comparative advantage in cocoa production, and their original plan was to force Africans off the land into large plantations; it was only through the initiative of the native farmers in the Western Region that cocoa farming took off and became recognized after the fact as an area of comparative advantage. To give a more recent example, who could have foreseen that movie-making would prove to be an area of comparative advantage for Nigeria, and that Nollywood would one day become amongst the biggest earners of non-oil revenue? Certainly not any of the politicians or civil servants who were busy making futile plans to throw more money at white elephants like Ajaokuta. Just about the only thing competent governments can really do is to work on things like higher-quality mass education, a highly stable and rational regulatory environment, fast and corruption-free courts, policing that keeps crime down to low levels, a transparent and stable currency regime, etc. No Nigerian government has ever done a decent job of a single one of these things, so it's not as if there's room to spare for fancy industrial policies which haven't worked even in much better run countries like the UK or Japan. The key thing is to empower - and here I mean it in the real sense rather than Nigerian style "empowerment" (aka misusing government funds to hand out gifts to a few) - ordinary citizens to start and grow new businesses, whatever those may be, instead of trying to second-guess the market by favoring one kind of business over another. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

urahara: Things you naturally gravitate to in a free trade environmental or where foriegn direct investors are very keen on investing on. They generally target areas you have comparative advantage in. For instance, the British tried to encourage farmers here to produce rice but they preferred cocoa and other cash crops. Under free trade, it will be economically suicidal to produce rice. Without the high import duties on it which makes it less affordable to the poor who consider it a staple (the primary cause of hunger is not a lack of food but a lack of money) no one in his right mind would grow it. The country has zero comparative advantage in it. In some areas, foriegn investors know areas have comparative advantage in as they have both the know-how and capital to exploit it. A good example are cars. When many Central European countries like Slovakia and Romania joined the EU, many Western European countries set up manufacturing plants there to exploit their much cheaper labour. Manufacturers EU countries focus on areas they have comparative advantage because they are in a common market. Germany won't start producing t-shirts and asking for high import duties to protect their local manufacturers against competition from fellow EU competitors. It won't simply be given 1 Like 1 Share |
