blazetitov:
What is the size of the workforce in the small state? Abi na 10,000 ghost workers?

SIRTee15:
Guy relax,
Almost everybody who commented admitted the $9 billion stuff is an error and not feasible.
Probably a slip of tongue from the cbn official or he was misquoted by the media outlet.
U are the only one here running up and down n making a fuss about it.
Forget about the impossibility and focus on the possibility.
For ur info....the global industrial starch market is worth $70 billion, while that of the chocolate industry is $96 billion.
Nigeria is the largest producer of cassava in the world, therefore if we get serious with our agro-allied sector, I'm sure we can export at least $1 billion worth of industrial starch.

You are disgracing us with these lies o
Soon Yoruba people will deport us again...
You know lagos is awa 'yondon'...
Chukwu okike abiama o....

SIRTee15:
#9 billion is more than $9 million.......
So I wonder why u think the former is possible but the later is not....stop allowing big numbers to confuse u.
$9 million or #9 billion worth of industrial starch export is very much feasible......
Nigeria exported $800 million worth of cocoa products in 2014.

kayfra:
Is it state money? Isn't it a private enterprise? How do you people think sef? State can only charge taxes on the profit made on the $9M dollars.

ChelseaDotCom:
I wish to know the school you attended and who your teachers were....a lot of Ignoramus on Nairaland, man, you are the Chief of them!

Remii:
he is talking about industrial starch as raw material not food or fufu, but $9b is clearly an error

tuale4u:
I think it is 9million dollar. maybe wrongly reported by vanguard.

kayfra:
Don't be ignorant. 1 ton goes for $500 and you have 20 tons in a container. You need to have shipped 900 container loads to make $9M. An easy feat and 900,000 containers to make $9B. An arduous task.

symbianDON:
oga it is industrial starch. industrial starch from cassava is not in the same league as wheat flour used by bakers. industrial starch has a lot of industrial applications and is actually in high demand worldwide.

Adminisher:
There is an error in the figures (maybe N9bn is the exact figure) but this your ignorance about the entire value chain of cassava needs spiritual work. Fasting and prayers. Full repentance and confession of sins. Who told you it is only for baking?. I can count about 24 uses for cassava starch without checking with Google. Please get serious and concentrate on the opportunities opening up with the dollar scarcity

homosapien:
I thought you Igbo's said you don't live in other South West state apart from Lagos, yet there is an Eze tussle between two Igbo's in ibadan. Sorry I forgot ibadan is the capital of Anambra. When will Igbo's stop feeling inferor and stop their callous and disgusting attitude?

Jesusloveyou:
Or is he trying to say 9million dollars? Well that that is encouraging and is d best thing to ever happen in nigeria

14:
Before end of march it will be N1000 to $1.
Nigeria was told to devalue the currency and ignoredmthe request, now watch when Naira do the free fall due to shortages dollars because no foreign investor is investing in Nigeria

[b]....there are very many commentary on depreciation of ₦ nowadays expecially in parallel market, although parallel or black market can be manipulated by the traders, they either do it on their self interest, so those who doesn't beleive in the prosperity of nigeria can harbour $ as they can on imported goods hereby cause hike!
But in my own point of view the depreciation of ₦ is a great success to this nation if well manage to nigeria situation today. the looted fund is in $ and it must be refunded back in $, so if $1 is ₦198 when the money is looted, then if the money is refund today at $1 to ₦350 the nation has gained ₦152!
imagine if $1=₦1000, the gain is ₦902!
So in conclusion if the government managed to refund the $trillion looted and the refunded money, change it in parallel market, this will reduce the pressure on ₦ and the scarcity of $ in parallel market so the ₦=$.

(take note all the money took out of CBN during jonathan regime were changed in parallel market before ditributed)

you have other opinion?[/b]

Ebukaobi:
Igbo man and lies

Why didnt u name Obi of Onitsha as the richest in the world

I guess you have direct access to their accounts?

loopman:
You are using too many words to explain a simple matter.
Where is your evidence that some youths from Ekiti are in Aba to learn anything? Is the jamboree the venue of the vocational study if there is anything of such?
He is there to play meaningless politics - Simple.

loopman:
You are wrong in your analogy just because you want to be mischievous. There is no real problem in traveling by the President to meet world leaders to discuss issues regarding NIGERIA. What issue regarding Ekiti is the yeye governor discussing at a party victory celebration.?

loopman:
What is the value of that jamboree to the Ekiti people he is meant to sit his arsee to govern,?

Wallade:
In a nutshell, you mean to say the the materials, components and parts of the Innosson vehicles are not made in Nigeria. It is the labour and other associated overheads incured during assembling that you refer to as the 10%.

If that is the case, It is better to have Toyota, Nissan, Ford, Volkswagen and others assembling their vehicles in Nigeria to meet demand in Nigeria. This Innosson vehicle is a waste of my hard earned money. I will get better value for my money with Ford, Kia, Hyundai, Nissan or better still, Toyota (Good thinking, good product).
