Nigeria government would make one statement and go to sleep, then wake up after 3 years only to repeat same statement and go to sleep again.

If you can believe this then you can believe any promise from FG.

And the industry will be powered by generators. Why do i have the feeling that Nigeria is someone's final year project.

I wonder why we keep discussing development when the foundation is not laid in "STABLE POWER"! Who discusses technological advancement without stable power supply........

The Federal Government has reinstated its commitment towards reviving the Cotton, Garment and Textile industry to create more employment opportunities for Nigerians, Igbere TV reports.

This was made known in a statement released on Friday, September 20th on behalf of the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Sabo Nanono, obtained by Igbere TV.

Giving the assurance, the Minister said;

“From 1985 to 1986, our textile industry was in good shape. During this period, Nigeria’s textile materials were one of the best in Africa and beyond until importation of textile into the country between 1987 to 1990, which has led us to the state we are now.

“Textile, garment and cotton industry are the core of the Agro-Allied industry. The industry is capable of employing hundreds of thousands of people across the country, especially in Kano, Kaduna, Aba, Lagos, and some other key areas.”

“In the process of reviving the textile industry, an estimate of approximately N1 trillion is projected by the Federal Government for a complete turn-around of the nation’s industry,” he added.

And the fear of god is you lying to your conscience? God did not create man so that they can fear him, rather to have a open conscience and be able to approach him.

Re: FG Moves To Revive Cotton, Textile Industries by grandstar(m): 9:12pm On Sep 21, 2019
This is utter nonsense. Money down the drain.

It is worsened by the fact government wants the manufacturers to patronise locally made cotton which is notorious for its low quality.

Government should simply allow the market to work and pick and chose winners. This will involve Creative Destruction which the government rejects in the textile and garment sector. The state has always been poor in choosing winners.

The best step government can take to improve the fortunes of this sector is actually the very opposite of its present redundant policy and that is to fully open up the sector to foreign trade. Zero percent import duty on textile fabrics will be a boon to the thousands of mom and pop tailoring shops that abound. The Economist called it 'the kind of unflashy industrialization that actually creates jobs'. Also, many medium to large scale manufacturing factories will be set up to produce garments for both the local and international market. I suspect a horde of Chinese manufacturers will set up shop in Nigeria importing fabrics from China, turning it into garments primarily for exports to nearby Europe and other parts of the globe.

Eventually, many fabric manufacturing plants will be set up as many garment producers will want faster turnaround time and speed to market and that can only be achieved with fabrics produced within the country rather than wait weeks to receive consignments from China. If such a policy like this was implemented, the textile sector will be much bigger than that of the 1980's.

It is time the government applied proper economics rather than the over repeated hubris that achieves negative results.
