OgbeniDawodu: You sound so funny. There are better ways to go about that. So, we will wait till investors are ready and everyone starts farming. Don't be sentimental with your thinking. look at it critically and access. People will die, business will shut down and after everything investors will run. Why do you think countries don't use such approach? It doesn't ends well. you will see that he is still going to back out and numerous would have loss badly. Wait and see |

Harlem2: Doesn't your president love foreign goods? Where does he take treatment? Where did his wife just come from now for a medical treatment? Where did his children school? If it were possible, Yusuff would have done foreign NYSC. Buhari feels foreign things are good for him and his family only while he suffers Nigerians with bans on foreign goods and make things more expensive and scarce. |

oldtruth:So how do we encourage investors to come in? Is it by opening our borders to cheap smuggled rice? Did you just say other countries don't use such approach, Japan placed high tariffs on imported rice decades ago and still maintaining it despite the harassment from the US, Switzerland still maintains high tariffs on some of their food imports, the EU did theirs by stylishly putting regulations on packaging of food from outside, the US has increased its tariffs on certain goods into the country in order to protect their manufacturers and several other countries, this step by the FG is long overdue 2 Likes |

peeps4u:You guys just don't want to understand anything, nothing was banned and you can still import rice through our ports and pay the normal tariffs to the government but you cannot smuggle it in after paying the tariffs to the Benin rep government and moreover the FG wants Nigeria to be self sufficient in rice production 1 Like |

OgbeniDawodu:How about refined petro. We have it here but still import it why not place a ban on imported petro to force us to repair our refinery. The system is keep them this way and the pp won't fight back (hunger) in the land |

oldtruth:No, the FG has been preparing and setting things in motion for this period, because how come Cosharis finished his Rice milling plant the same period the border was closed. Many Nigerians never thought it would get to this stage. Many thought it was an empty threat. The Gov't is so committed to this course. 1 Like |

oldtruth: Did Nigeria ban importation of rice outrightly? NO! Get your facts right and stop being ignorant and stupid. The government says import your foreign rice through the ports and pay your duties. The government says don't bring rice through land borders or smuggle it through land borders, ok? Learn! 1 Like |

Re: FG Bans Import, Export Of All Goods At Land Borders by Area4Area: 8:31pm On Oct 14, 2019 |
oldtruth:High tariffs and remember no banning in the case of Nigeria, just increased tariff and you must import through our seaports |

Mrquote:Actually, u are a funny one, the war is against smuggled foreign rice because rice entering through ports can be controlled but majority of Nigerians preferred to smuggle through land border at lower cost. And its Official that Nigeria is trying to reduce our imports and food is more easier to produce locally than refined petroleum products. |

Re: FG Bans Import, Export Of All Goods At Land Borders by Nobody: 8:44pm On Oct 14, 2019 |
OgbeniDawodu: Because no sane government would have done such. Let me make something clear to you. If high tarrif is being introduced on imported rice and no tarrif on local production, the citzens will choose what is best for them. With that businesses will adjust and lane defined. Now, people goods are being left to rotten, huge debt recorded etc. Things don't work this way |

oldtruth:Smugglers don't pay tariffs to Nigerian Gov't brother, they only pay settlements(bribes). This case is personal Benin Rep. �� charges low tarriffs on those goods at their ports and those goods finds their way into Nigerian �� Markets destabilizing our economy. |

The situation on ground means Benin Republic �� should import/Produce Products their can consume in their country. Not the case of them a country of less than 2.5 million importing rice for 200 million people. |
