This is mere talk and rectorics. We need real action! The government would do this,the government would do that. Hian! We are tired of hearing promises and policies initiation,but no action. |

If the government will also stop importing cars too, then it's good. I just dey imagine our president in his locally manufactured Innoson SUV ![]() ![]() After a year, they should also ban importation of airplanes too. The locally made airbuses will be cheaper also. Mstcheeeeeeew!!! 1 Like |

I wonder why this was cropped out which to me is the most important. The Council also approved the directive that all government vehicles be purchased from local assembly plants unless they are of specialized nature and NAC has certified that they cannot be produced in Nigeria. The council’s decision is to be backed by appropriate legislation to give comfort to investors that there will be no abrupt change in policyA big plus for local manufacturers. If upon the high patronage of Toyota, they cannot establish even an Assembly plant in Nigeria, then government should sideline them for the benefit of the economy 4 Likes |

That doesn't stop government producing new cars if they want, as what people are looking for is cheap, no one like used car. |

This is a nice development if you don’t have fund to a buy car use transport. Nigeria cannot continue to live backward. They should employ foreigners as lecturers in all Nigeria polytechnics to fast track knowledge in technology. Kudos to GEJ and its team. |

I strongly belive GEJ can make Nigeria great if giving the needed support with such laudable policy when operational will definitely make a great difference in our economic development. |

ANY LInk to this policy document or only govt officials have access to it? He revealed that as a way to provide adequate local manpower for the industry, the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) is working with car-maker, Cena of Brazil, to open automotive training centres in Nigeria while two Nigerian universities have agreed to commence degree programmes in auto mechanical engineering. no names? |

President GEJ got it wrong this time,he can't just increase tarrif like that or phase out tokunbor cars without taking adequate steps to mitigate its effects on the masses he might loose support because some of his policies are not popular,95 percent of nigeria are poor who's advising the president,this is unrealistic . 2 Likes |

ebenezer4o2: Let's talk about the economic implications of this if followed to the letter.Exactly what I had in mind, I see this as a good thing, yes d automobile industry is not strong but remember according to "there was a country" Chinwa Achabe 2013 After the west told us we won't be able to get a refinery in a long time, Nigerians build 1 in 1yr. Nigerians are very smart people if giving d opportunity. This policy will automatically sweeten d deal btw manufacturers and banks to give dem more loans to improve dere companies and employ more hands. We complained about rice importation but with less than a year of its policy Ebony rice demand has sky rocketed, @ Nnewi d people buy more of the local rice dan imported hence improving the industry this is just from my research and observation. Give it time, Nigeria will surprise u. |
