Anything that benefits the poor man would be banned in the zoo. BAT should sack all these abokis at the top if not they will sabotage his plans

Okirika, clothing our girls since 1925
I bet our girls won't approve of this

Some agbado miscreants will be very happy

They dare not.

Misplaced priorities

This government lacks emphaty. How will low income earner buy clothes? Besides, the quality of some of the okrika clothes are far better than the so called ready made clothes.

They want to make life bitter and not better.

They will never do anything that will make people smile.

Even abroad, there are thrift shops, really big ones where people go to buy gently used (second hand) items. Visit these places and you'll find that people from all walks of life patronize them.

LagosFirstSon:
Customs must be mad

Do they know the number of Nigerians who survive on okrika business ?

More than 91% Nigerians actually.

We like chasing shadows. Second hand clothes is not the problem of Nigeria but the leaders like Buhari who ruled with a scepter of corruption, tribalism, nepotism and religious sentiment.

Abeg we need ease of burdens not burden itself

Pretty sure Chinese govt have enough shares in Nigeria to upturn such a plan

The idiots will be called to order... they just want make Tinubu recognise them...

Bunch of thieves and useless things up north...

Who full for border no be up north...!!

Rubbish

KingSatan:
Please let the poor breath!

Used clothes are sold everywhere in the world. Stop making it look like Nigeria is the worse place on earth.

These strange and wicked policies are nauseating.

I repeat, let the poor breath.

It's not even about the poor. The best quality are usually in second hand. All these poorly made clothing from china and Vietnam can't match.

iampeterben:
Seems like cars and rice nor dey pay them again? Now they wanna change gear to Okrika.

You no mention smuggled fuel.

Is that their problem?

“Okrika clothes are injurious to the health of the nation. That is why government deem it fit that it should be banned." Oga rest abeg. Is it your health. Focus on making life easier for the masses, but instead, these idiots want to put hand 4 wetin no consign dem. IDIIIIAAATSSS!!

😄😄😄😄😆😆😆😆😆😄😄😄😄
Emi lo kan 👏👏👏😆

Used clothes are sold all over the world, part of recycling.

We have only 2 active textile manufacturing companies in Nigeria. How can you kill an industry and force the people not to buy inexpensive clothes?

E fe ku sha?
Not until new clothe makes sense, both in quality and price, u aiint trying dat nonsense u wan kill akube

Abeg go deal with agbero in lagos before u kill akube business abeg

Tinubu own na pain he carry come o

They will be talking about the Poor when they want to go on strike..
Yet they wouldn't think about the true well-being of the poor.

They want to import high-end clothes of N50k
But they plan to Bann small clothes that would be sold for N500..

They should deal with poverty first.


OKIRIKA is not their wahalla

is this your problem

They should not try it.

This is actually ridiculous. One of the key strategies to sustainability as indicated in SDG is REUSE. The Nigeria as a country is amongst the countries that signed a pact to the SDG 2030.

The point is , to help protect the planet from climate change , it's important to encourage reuse of used clothing , electronics and other items. That way it will help limit industrial production which has a direct impact on the climate through release of carbon.

Nigerian govt lacks foresight on this regard. If they are trying to discourage importation then it will make sense due to emssion from transportation.

The one who issued that evil ban is a base and wicked intentioned being and he will fail woefully to the glory of the masses.

Very dry

Daniel Regha on Twitter go cry taya today

The Ambassador of meager lifestyle

Don't mind this man. Where are the new and affordable long-lasting clothes sold in nigerian market?

Even tokunbo sevice shoes are the best when compared with new ones. Almost everyone uses tokunbo. How many times has the government announced it's ban? I remember Obj's tenure.

They still find ways into the maket because customs at the borders allow it.
