TippyTop:

Are you Bi?

Toks everyone knows you are na

Lordave:
Lol
Your own na joke. The real guys don't do it without insulting the whole ethnic group.

No Bros

I mean it. Orinkinla is Igbo

Lordave:
They will tag the OP 'Igbo'

He is Igbo

I know the gift I'd give her, it's won't be fish.
10inch Edo wood, it would be hard and strong.

I dont think she likes Bi-sexu.al men

Ikengawo:
Nigerians are amazingly ignorant


Nigeria's economy was growing by 7% under GEJ

You're now using 3% under Buhari to insult 'IPOB', who's territories are the only ones actually witnessing growth and an improvement of living standards due to intelligence and hardwork.

The chart you have provided does not indicate the year which makes it meaningless

Regardless, oil prices averaged over $65 throughout the duration of Jonathan's administration

Now it is between $28-$32, less than half of the price during Jonathan

Given the current reality of the global economy and oil prices, this government is performing well

PROVACATEUR:
Lol. Importation is not bad for an economy but you need to review it when industries come on stream and the industries will be able to meet the needs of the citizenry.


Plz I want you to still have it in mind that Buhari will be spending 3.7billion naira on importation of BMW cars while we have other indigenous car manufacturing and assembly lines.



The laws are made for the poor only

Bros The president has said that the importation of the BMW cars is under review

He mentioned in the Presidential chat that the cars he is currently using is ok for him for the next 10 years. I fully support the patronage of local car assemblies.

If we are talking about the budget allocations, that is another issue

P.S. We do not have car manufacturing companies in Nigeria

Standing5:
When power supply eventually becomes stable it will be because the goverment is trying to strangle the business of those dealing in generator sales and repairs. It isn't hard to how the sophisticated ignorance and greed of a small but agressive group is hold back forward thinking minds.

Very true indeed

They are very shortsighted because they are the ones that could benefit the most from the policy

Why dont you go and take his place in the prison

IPOB noisemaker

This will be a very serious blow to our IPOB brothers

Serious shock to the system



God bless Buhari and Nigeria

PROVACATEUR:
I can smell anger and bile rising from you. Let's stay on the topic and not involve ipob or any group because we can't defend our fort with strong arguments.


Thanks

On the contrary I'm in high spirits

You started the abuse on this thread, not me sir

PROVACATEUR:
I can tell you with certainty that its not what you read on pages of texts and papers that obtains in the real world. Starting a production line is capital intensive and a lot of factors comes into play. Let's not see it like its an abracadabra thingy where every factors of production start moving seamlessly at the press of a button

Good point

Which means it requires patience, dedication and hardwork but the rewards could be very great. Sounds like any other business to me.

Importation is just an easier option but detrimental to our economy.

There are many schemes out there to provide financial support and mentoring for new businesses. Are you aware of this?

Standing5:
The bold is wrong. People find it hard to compete with foreign alternatives smuggle thru porous borders after harsh production condition must have pushed final prices up. Importation is easier but local production is better.

The bottlenecks I was referring to are the administrative constraints

PROVACATEUR:
A policy where we are still planning on production of pencils? A policy where the banks who are supposed to fund the manufacturing sector are in distress owing to financial crunch and archaic monetary policies of buhari, A policy where your president scares foreign investors away with his rhetorics about how corrupt and bastardised Nigeria is?


Plz a better tale should suffice from you

Very incoherent argument

You are just moving from one thing to the other. No substance

All these made up stories are the reasons why IPOB are not engaging in Manufacturing, they are addicted to easy money and unfortunately, this is a long term strategy, no amount of abuse or lamentations will change it. Importation must stop to restructure the economy

Banks are not statues, they will respond to the demand in the economy. There is insufficient demand for credit to start production activities. Have you approached your bank for a loan to start a business?

Nigeria is corrupt. Buhari does not need to tell anyone, this is a well known fact globally. The international community is responding positively to the anti graft policy of Buhari. You might choose to turn a blind eye to that fact but it is the truth

PROVACATEUR:
how do you bring in the machineries and equipment to set up shop when the economic climate is unbalanced and on a downward spiral? Do you think starting a production line is bean cake with the attendant bureaucracy and double taxation in our system.
The framework is not there plzzxxxx

Rubbish

There is provision in the current policy to ensure that businesses can import raw materials, spares and parts. They are even given financial incentives to help them

The reason why people are not doing it is because they are addicted to easy money made from importation. They lack the patience to start their own manufacturing base.

There are more bottlenecks in the importation business than in production/manufacturing

PROVACATEUR:
what will you be consuming before the goods you want to produce come on board.



Sometime adept thinking should be mastered before commenting on my post

The policy has been in operation for some months now. If the IPOB importers have spent all the time they use in abusing Buhari to expand their capacity to produce these products, they would be operational by now.

And by the way, a lot of these products are driven by the importers marketing strategies and not by domestic demand. I am sure you did GCE Economics and you know that most products have substitutes.

PROVACATEUR:
Your policies are killing the manufacturing sector today so Cry me a River with all these your baseless thetorics

The only thing his policy is killing is the reliance on imports

A particular section in Nigeria is sad because they can no longer import toothpick and tomato puree

Importation is not a business. Go and find something else to do

leke12:
[s] am not defending anybody am just saying d truth, its not only about importation or export but generally the entrepreneurial spirit of igbos is second to non. After all d destructions caused by civil war and confiscation of their property an average igbo dey hustle pass other tribe. I think others shud start learnining from. Ise ase je owo ase la...meaning u wrk to survive but to be rich u have to involve in bis.[/s]

Nonsense!!
