Frustrate Sale Of Electric Cars In Nigeria, To Sell Our Oil — Sen. #ekweremadu by lanre88(m): 8:53am On Apr 18, 2019 |
The Senate on Wednesday rejected a bill that sought to phase out the use of petrol cars and introduce electric cars in Nigeria by the year 2035. . . The bill was sponsored by Sen Ben Murray-Bruce (PDP, Bayelsa). The senator told his colleagues that combustion cars were causing pollution and contribute to global warming and that developed countries were gradually phasing them out. . . However, the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, while kicking against the bill, said it would affect Nigeria’s economy as an oil producing country. . . “We cannot sit here as a parliament and do a legislation to encourage something that will kill our own business as a nation. Besides, in economic sense, we are an oil producing country. . . So, we should do everything possible to frustrate the sale of electric cars in Nigeria to enable us to sell our oil.” he said. In the end, Murray-Bruce was advised to withdraw the bill, which he later did. https://www.instagram.com/instablog9ja/p/BwXW0NtnXfd/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=4y0v7eyxx4vz
