Owutuotuo: But the govt has said they would open it by the end of January 2020. Is the closure long enough to impact positively? My take is that closing the border in this manner won't really help us especially in the long run as some of you guys believe. Nigerians are innovative people all that is needed is the customs to do their jobs diligently by blocking smuggling routes and putting in place policies that facilitate clearing of goods at the border timely so as to make the revenue they are expected yo make. Then give us electricity that aids production, roads that ease business especially in accessing raw materials and distribution in the case of finished goods, general good infrastructure and watch how Nigerians excel. You see it all falls back to the effectiveness of the govt in power. All this sudden closure of borde for just 3months won't help us ON THE LONG RUN. 2 Likes |

As bad as it is, you see that it is even non-Americans that are reaping sugnificant benefits from the smuggling, Lebanese, Indians, and Chinese. |

nanakgh: Mr Killjoy, the sadist. We're celebrating this and if you are not happy with it, I can't be of help to you. A worker said, “We were recalled recently because their inventory has gone down and we have continued to be busy in the last three months.” |

codedguy1: The major reason for border closure was to address the influx of terrorists that were trooping in to join Boko Haram and ISWAP. So, border closure is different from ban on the export and import of some selected items into the country just boost our domestic production and consumption of locally made items |

codedguy1: You didn't contribute anything, just rants. That's all Did they also close all the porous entrances. As if terrorist only enter from our official borders. Those who have functional brains are testifying that activities of terrorists and herdsmen clashes with farmers have gone down drastically. When was the last time you read about such incidences? Use your brain kid, be positive for once in your life |
Re: Border Closure Bites Hard On Rice, Textile Shops In Benin Republic by codedguy1(m): 11:43am On Nov 09, 2019 |
maasoap: So when they open them by January we should expect resumption of rice smuggling and clashes would resume. No? What reforms has the customs gone through within this closed period to indicate that they are more equipped or trained to manage what they couldn't manage before. If you didn't have a worn out rettardded brain you would have understood that the problem is with policing and managing our borders and smuggling routes by the customs and not outright closure of the borders. No import/export. Its hard to be positive when you are doing the right thing the wrong way. |
Re: Border Closure Bites Hard On Rice, Textile Shops In Benin Republic by Countersam(m): 2:12pm On Nov 09, 2019 |
maasoap: You are totally out of line, there is movement of human beings without contraband goods so long you have your passport although other illegal entry is still thriving. So how does this block influx of people intending to join Boko? The border is open from 6am to 6pm and people are moving in and out of Nigeria unimpeded.check your facts.... |
Re: Border Closure Bites Hard On Rice, Textile Shops In Benin Republic by Countersam(m): 2:18pm On Nov 09, 2019 |
codedguy1: No reforms at all my brother, as I speak to you the Customs officials and Police are still collecting bribes to allow small quantities of contraband move. Smugglers have deviced new means of smuggling, doing so in smaller quantities under pretence of being for personal use and so on, if you juba Wella you go pass but at the end the expenses isn't worth it. All am saying is Customs remains our problem,they should step up their game and carry out serious reforms towards enhancing border policing. |

Successlane: More endowed in what sense pls? We can't even compare the electricity supply and good road network in Benin Republic to Nigerias'.... How will business thrive? Pls this topic is not a sentimental one, we are talking about survival. Nigerians keep relocating out of the country in droves given the slightest opportunity,is that normal? Our government has failed us.... |
Re: Border Closure Bites Hard On Rice, Textile Shops In Benin Republic by maasoap(m): 2:28pm On Nov 09, 2019 |
Countersam: My fact is that Boko Haram and ISWAP activities are not in the news frequently again. My fact is that herdsmen versus farmers frequent fights are not in the media frequently again as against the pre border closure era |
