The clueless one again!One day we will just wake up and hear that Buhari has banned access to life.Don't worry,it is going round.Men wet dey survive through that way go see the effect of recession now.After all many of them voted for him ignorantly.Let them face it!

What is wrong in this? Pls enlighten me

Abagworo:


The idea is to encourage local manufacturers which is good. Aren't you happy with the rice revolution? I am.

Wat is good about d policy cuz as it stands now it favour only d rich cuz only dem can import tru d sea y u re left to trek..... Y not ban cars importation as a whole if u really want to encourage local manufacturers? Am tempted to ask..... Are u not tired of defending d undefendable?

How people see the right move and criticize baffles me........ Who Cotonou car epp??

U funny o!

signz:
Is it not against ECOWAS trade protocol?

Its a shame if this story is true.

Why can't he just make our ports competitive instead of trying to ban importation of cars through our land borders?

It won't work. Itll only make Customs officers richer

It is NOT as those vehicles were not manufactured in Benin Republic

God know say Na new motor I go buy...coz no visiting of mutiu every 1 month. All the mutius no go gree this ban. How govt want make dem chop sef.. na WA ooooo...

saintmark88:

As if people who import from neighbouring countries do not pay duty while importing their vehicles. There is absolutely no reason to place the ban at this time .

is it a must to talk

Another assembly of wailers spewing trash. Most dont even have a clue what the policy is about.

if they did. They won't be publicly exposing the low level of intelligence and self development internationally amongst our youth s. With these kinda low I. Q how won't our great grand fathers still be ruling Nigeria. Hand it over to which generation? Rubbish

Kathmandu:
Can you kindly keep quiet. You applied for N-power 30k job and you know that you will need to save your two year salary without touching it before you can dream of doing window shopping for a toks car.


People like you with nothing to lose on this government obnoxious policies are the one drumming support for this government.



I won't mind paying you 35k per month to give up that N-power job so that your conscience will be free to condemn this atrocious govt.


Don't allow this N-power to be a Sword of Damocles over you.

Have you thought about the reason anybody will pay customs duties TWICE? If you import through other countries, you pay customs duty there and also to bring it to Nigeria. The truth is, they smuggle these vehicles in, denying Nigeria her proper revenue.

.....

Bizibi:
it is the car duty that is not favourable at all.....

That is true, but my first investment after leaving paid employment was autosales and I did much of my importation from Cotonou. Those Lebanese are making huge cakes from us. I can authoritatively say the Car lots across the border are patronized 90% at least by Nigerians. And at the end, the cars are ferried through bushes of Idiroko even though we actually pay legally acceptable duties to get the cars in.

It makes no sense, because govt is not even getting the fees we pay. Its best to just stop it. And let me inform you as an insider. Even though Car Dealers bring in those cars cheaply from Cotonou, they will still mark-up the profits on the same equation as importers from USA.

I support Buhari on this, 100% and I think I might likely vote him in 2019 if the electricity supply stays the way it is or even get better. I am saving tonnes of money during this administration despite the fact that I never supported it.

What was his reason for banning road imports?

Instead of focusing on resolving the recession he created, the id*iot is hell bent in creating more and more problems for ordinary citizens! This st*upid ban is going to make cars more expensive!

No country in the world banned importation of goods via road, except in this useless country which is being led by an outright incompetent and tribalist as*shole!

Abagworo:
Wonderful! Let us watch Innoson grow like the rice farmers. If this sails through then I will declare that we are having a quiet revolution. Nigeria is indeed on the right path.

Importation of cars wasn't banned outright so I dunno what you're happy about.

Besides, since our currency has had it value so badly eroded, buying cars from neighboring countries is now as expensive as getting them from any car dealer I'm Nigeria, and I am saying this authoritatively.

You forgot to as him how many local manufacturer has Buhari helped, rather he was digging out tax flaws of Innoson the other day. Do they have light to operate? How much is exchange rate?

Let's see how it goes.

Well he meant well but wrong timing

My stomach has started "paining me nah"...oh well off to the chemist.

mrvitalis:
I really don't get what is people's problem with this

Did he ban car importation? No

If u are genuine businessman this will not affect u in anyway.. so u prefer revenue that's supposed to go to Nigeria to continue to go to other countries?? I actually don't understand Nigeria

so importation thru d seas means d revenue goes to nigerians?
So rather than d revenue go to a fellow african country it should go to a foreign country abi.
its ur kind wit stunted mindsets that destroys anythin they handle

vivaciousvivi:
Prices of already cleared Tokunbo vehicles will skyrocket. This will also affect the demand for Nigerian used and hence, that will sky rocket too. Dunno anyone personally who still buys new cars with dollar price right now. Checked the price of 2016 Toyota Corolla...Omo, I gats to run away!

that's why we have innoson

The idiot will have to save all his empower pay for 60 years to buy a Toyota camry

His policies are just too stringent . What is the ratio of our own manufactured vehicle compare to import . What is the capacity of innoson vehicle ? At least before u ban ur production must be at the optimum, or u create import substitution. Make the economy conducive for investors to put their money down , make sure infrastructure are in place , optimum energy , tax holiday and we shall be call a beautiful country . How many of our vessels are in operation in other countries, same with our aviation.? The country is just up side down . And duty rate of vehicle coming in is about 35%. Where are the money going into . The Nigeria custom, revenue alone enough to feed the whole , same with FiRS . We should be the one lending other countries loan , and not we begging for loan if we gets our acts Together . There is so much waste in the system. What a country ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

ha! The electricity is bad here in wuse area,anyway I pray they make things easier fr us to buy cars at a reasonable rate

ritababe:


that's why we have innoson

Innoson demand presently exceeds his supply.



A new car is more expensive than an old one

We shall see what this Govt want to achieve between now & 2019 .

What I see here is sophisticated ignorance expressed by Nigerians who don't see beyond their noses. How will our own car manufacturers grow if continue to allow them face an unfair competition.
Nigerians! Put on your thinking cap.

Abagworo:

Can the lower class Nigerians afford a brand new Innoson Vehicle? Even a fairly used Innoson vehicle won't be that cheap.. Do u think the big men will have just Innoson vehicles in their garage? It will just be in their fleet of cars. All this policies ends up not favouring the masses..Our local rice is as expensive as the foreign rice just a difference of N50 when buying in mudu,the farmers are balling while the masses suffer and bears the cost
