My brother, Iphone, Blackberry, Apple is Manufactured by Terry Gou a Chinco.
His company is located in Asia!!

The whites wants we Africa to have the kind of believe you have.
But the reality is, Africans have been clothing themselves before they start there exploration to discovere our continent.

Do you know Aso Oke which my lovely Igbo people call Akwete?
That is one out of several invention of Africans before the white start popnosing in our Affairs here in Africa.
Now Nigeria is more importance to the Imperia powers because it is Highly strategic and Full Of Excess Human and Naturall Resources.
For your information, Nigeria is the Only Country in the World that have all Known Naturall Resources!!!!!
Infact, africa houses more than 50% of the World known Natural resources.
So the whites sees this as a Great treat for a country like Nigeria to bin that region. Hence the need for structural Brainwashing and Pollitical Destabilisation which they are pumping on us.

But God give you and I Freewill which enables us to think and choose according to our desires.
This freewill can't bé attacked.
So it is time we start embracing oneanother in Africa to help each other get rid of all this bad elementss the whites hhave plaque Africans with.
This is exactly what China did and are still doing today.
Nigerians can do this do.
Infact other Africans consciously and sub consciously still see us as Hope Of Africa.
We need to take the Bull by the Horn and shum those Imperial Powers Philosophies.
Made in Nigeria products is what we take us there. Start using it.
We are ourselves the Solution to our problems.
Shun pride.
Bé humble, patient and Honest.
Sure one day Naira will bé #1 to £2 not dollars.

Embrase Innosons Cars to boost our Economy.
Bé proud to bé a Nigerian with positive actionss that foster National Developments.

I love my country.
Green White Green for life!

You have a poor mans mentality..did you consider quality/brand? E.g you cant compare a tecno to an iphone!

I doubt that... i would not buy a nigerian car i dont know the owner and history.. so would so many other people.. you dont know what roads those cars drove on, what incompetent mechanic handled the vehicle before your purchase.. if you look closely.. every sector of nigeria is intertwined... you cant expect to fix one and leave one dying.. it would come back to poke you..you fix the rails but you dont fix electricity which modern trsin system are being powered on.. tell me, would the railway system stand the test of time? You introduce an automotive policy but your electricity generation capacity is just 4000mw.. its only a matter if time the system would implode!

Wicked government! Trying to deprive the masses who can't afford luxury the little they can afford. I wish they can all die.

And you sure must be among the lots clamouring "BUHARI FOR CHANGE 2015, SAI BUHARI, etc" yet you talk about luxury. Go ask your parents about how much luxury they enjoyed during the Buhari regime back then. Austerity was at its peak and the order of the day then; wages slashed and several luxuries prohibited. Today, some people look back to then and come out to say that regime was the best, this and that. I keep wondering how people clamour for change yet remain so blind and daft to notice one when it surfaces. Nobody keeps doing the same thing and expects a different result. Even if Buhari should emerge as the No 1 citizen come Feb 14, he definitely will effect new policies (of which austerity will sure be paramount like in his previous regime), if he is to usher in any slightest kind of change.
Nigerians really need to be open minded to constructively critique and avoid being blinded by sentiments, nepotism and some form of useless bigotry.

99% of Nigerians buying used cars do not know the owner, history or even the country the were used in.
When it comes to Nigerian made used car it is even better, because you can get to buy it directly from the original owner, so what are you talking about?
The power sector is a work in progress, things are going on simultaneously.

keyman0007:



HW does it get beta?

It is we the citizen that suffer the effect, why cant the government give the companies manufacturing inside some wavier to make their cars cheaper, rather they want to make more money. Also 70 percent is outrageous. hw much does the government knw dey sell new car? you cant get a new car less than 2.5m. how many people can afford 2.5m for a car when a gud tokunbo can go as low as 1m

Even okonjo, aganga and GEJ do not use these so called locally manufactured cars.

All these people bringing all these harsh polices dey didn't witness during their time, it God dat will judge them.

oga be informed! IVM cars cost atleast 1m -1.5m, and some are also 2m. why don't you want our economy to grow? how do you think China became the largest economy in the world?

amaechionuh:

Even if its assembled NIGERIA CARS and so what? Thank God you called it NIGERIA CAR, that alone I am very proud of because during your Buhari era there was no Nigerian car.

hahahahahalets see if it favours us, jonathans rule favours the rich only, n i will still say it, dat was how subsidy came it was you people that were still saying its good, smh

SaiBuharii:
He increased the price of fuel by an unprecedented margin ever...the pple he represents occupied the street, and they deceived us the money will be used for infracstructural development. After 6 years. Where is the development? Are the hospitals better or the workers are striking continuously? Are the schools better or the lecturers in all institutions are striking? Why has lagos-Ibadan not been completed in 6 years? Why are the rates of trains dt he finally did in lieu of election so expensive? My teacher told me trains are the cheapest source of transportation!

He has increased the price of car importation to 70%. Means if you buy a car of 1m, you pay extra 700,000 thousand. Why? What is the hope for the ordinary Nigerian huzzling to buy a used car. This locally produced cars...are they affordable - No.This also has a multiplying effect on the economy...cos all cars become expensive. The local industry you claim you want to encourage...are they ready to serve us? Why can't you buy the local cars and use them in your fleet of cars. Leadership by example!

Also in his time. because of the govt. cannot manage the economy, he has increased the dollar, and once again broke the record. How did Sanusi control it. What about your guy there. Is he doing the right thing? Dollar increase has led to virtually everything becoming expensive. A poor man cannot shop online again. Our reserves are empty. Where is the money? What has it been used for?


The why's are plenty...but the last is why should I vote for you when all your policies are killing me the ordinary citizen on the street. Don't you think I will commit sucide if you stay till 2019?








As for me and my family.

Mr. Progressive

Did you finish your secondary school or dropped out? What was your score in economics and mathematics? Don't you think that its better and more wise if you keep quiet or just book space and move on, when topics/issues you don't understand are being discussed

myownlife:
Selfish dude.
Because you have crossed the bridge, you think the best for you is to burn the ladder. Even in America, using a used car is not a stigma. This is almost new year. No make me vex ooo.

nobody is against buying USED cars.. as long as that 2nd hand car was made in naija.

IyfeNamikaze:


he wanted to remove fuel subsidy and You guys ( the short sighted uninformed ones ) occupied the streets of Lagos to protest against progress.

Oi....actually I supported the removal of the fuel subsidy....and I believe that the cash should have gone into education ,especially technical education among other things.

oliverjiad:

I don't understand your language. Its not different from what obtains in south africa,and there own is that they don't import completed vehicles.

Why are nigerians short sighed?

One of my uncle recently bought a 2009 tokunbo suv for 2.5 million naira.

He didn't know he could get a brand new innoson suv for 3 million and naija made hyundai suv for 3.5m

In essence, u r meant to or trying to say ur uncle is short sighted?

tell me what is innoson or hyundai to toyotaor honda brands?

like I said, be informed ! they only increased it to 70 percent and you're crying! in some countries they completely banned the importation of 2nd hand cars. take SA for example, a fellow African country for that matter. So you should just shut up.

redcliff:


Im in support of the policy but its too heavy.. it should slip in gradually! 70 percent is crazy!

redcliff, the 70 percent wasn't effected all at once. The OP stated it started with 35 percent around february 2014 before the govt decided to increase it further by another 35 percent come the new year. So it's not as if the whole 70 percent came in at a go. Infact, until it becomes effected (if finally it will) come Jan 1, 2015, the import duty on tukumbo cars still remains 35 percent.

The power sector is a work in progress, things are going on simultaneously.

Nigerians buying tokunbo cars need not know the owners for the following reasons

1. The roads are extremely good.. you are sure that the underneath of the car did not hit the floor not even once in its lets say 12years of existence.

2. The govt has well regulated the technical maintenance of your car in such a way that you are highly obligated to according to your manufacturer's/ environmental specification always ensure that your car is regularly serviced at the specified time with specified manufacturer's parts.

3. The govt of any sane country has emission standards, technical standards, usability standards.. you cannot fail to default in these areas otherwise youl dance to the music.

4. With the VIN or chasis number the history of the vehicle is recorded..

Quick question, what kills a car in nigeria and which of these mentioned four points i clearly gave we have/practice to lets say 20%?

gstuntz:


"Improve local manufacturer"s"? How many do you know of?

Even if it is half we have, is it wrong to grow it from one to 2? Forget the s . However,Nissan is there and Obyno nko?You are free to correct me here if am not in order.

redcliff:


Gbam! We must be manufacturing itself not assembling.. whats the difference really? Assembling is still importation!

Do you really believe in all these stuffs you've been typing or you are just enjoying the argument If you do really believe in them, then sorry my bro...you need to improve more your thinking faculties and look beyond your nose...good morning!!!

oliverjiad:
fine let him go off the subsidy as well and look into educations as well and they should stop corruption

same blah..blah.. blah. talk. they have already looked into education, and which one is stop corruption?

Its still crazy.. i know it wasnt at once infact i enjoyed tge last part of jan 2014 when i escaped the first 35% increase.. what happened to slowly chipping it in, 15%, 15% 10% and 30% when you see that local "assemblers" are fully functional....in that way you spread that suffering over a long time period so that they dont complain too much..thats a govt that has the best interest of the people at heart

Montaque:
yes,but it has been said since last year nau. Its not a new thing. Its even replicated in our agric sector in rice nd frozen fish importation, and many nigerians are smiling,including me.

Thank you bro. God bless you for that. Until people start appreciating some of these policies and know is for our own (Nigeria) good, we'd always remain so held back.

GEJ/MNS government is a failure.

What is the use of all these when most people do not even know the actual countries the used cars are imported from?
The fact remains that importation of used cars will be minimzed and manufacturing of cars in Nigeria will be maximized, prizes of Nigeria made cars will reduce with time and those who still cannot afford it will have Nigeria made used cars to buy.
It is as simple as that.

oliverjiad:
Sir mind ur speech to the Nigerian as fellow nairalanders and Nigerians dey para for this so since u can afford #1.5m to buy a car is it everybody in nigeria can afford that I bet over 10million Nigerian can't afford it till 5years come and they can as well get a car at 800k,plz let GEJ or FG let the vehicles sold for 500k,then we're in a new millennium Arise o compatriot fellow nigerians

imagine the rubbish you just typed! is it everybody in Nigeria that can even afford to by keke talk more about buying a car of 800k ( a 2nd hand). You clamour for change , change has come now you want to still stay in your old ways. the best thing is to completely ban the importation of tokunbo cars. we are not dumping ground! this policy will boost our economy and help our naira to gain value.

oliverjiad:
u can imagine 3million for a made in nigeria car Aahhh nah wahhh oooo

OMG! Can you imagine the reasoning of a Nigerian? And you'd jump off your feet to pay double for a made in china car. Inferiority complex, the bane of Nigerians.

oliverjiad:
u can imagine 3million for a made in nigeria car Aahhh nah wahhh oooo

Have you used a new car? Try it and see that you will curse tokunbo cars. With new cars, there's no mechanic wahala for at least the first five years except for change of oil and the likes. There so many brands to choose from. Some cost as low as a million, 1.5, 2million etc...But with 700,000 tokunbo car you must visit mechanic before usage and at least every 6months. So what's the economic sense in using tokunbo

gstuntz:


"Improve local manufacturer"s"? How many do you know of?

IVM
Nissan

these are the ones that I know , I'm sure some people here can contribute to that list

And some nit-wits will come here and shout GEJ till 2019 with this type of anti-people policy.One thing that amazes me is why Jonathan is so heartless to the masses who gave him their mandate.Jan 2012 was subsidy removal which eventually claimed lives of innocent citizens and Nigerians are still feeling the pains till now.Now he wants to stop Nigerians from affording cheap cars. God,my humble prayer is that you change this govt like you changed the govt of Saul and replaced it with that of David.Nigeria and Nigerians cannot survive another 4years of insensitive governance under GEJ.

what else do you expect from OTUOKE(OTU FOR INCOMPETENT) AND OKE(TOP)?

Onegai:


Precisely. We cannot make cheap cars until we can source 50% or more of the raw goods needed for cars locally. Our Steel industry must be revived and we need Quality Control experts to set up testing facilities here. Also, let our govt put their money where their mouths are and USE MADE-IN-NIGERIA cars as their official vehicles, as vehicles of almost all parastatals.The only Innoson vehicles I've seen in Lagos were buses travelling to/fro the East, yet the man has been producing for over 2 years. FG should have patronised him and used banks to offer excellent loans to Nigerians to buy Made-In-Naija.

well, this is just d only strategy that can make d auto policy to work. What's d amount of minimum wage in d country? I believe dat no one is completely satisfied he's patronising second hand products, but if the means ain't dere I bet ure helpless. If truly Jonathan really want to developed d automotive industries then its simple encourage ur citizens through availability of car loan strictly based on acquisition of cars from dis local manufacturer. Same goes for other items n even this will make tokunbo prices to reduce drastically coz I know everyone will prefer new to used ones
