I once said that the closure of these borders is not a properly thought idea, but some ignorant entities were ranting up and down. Rice is not the only commodity that passes through a border. There are a lot of genuine business that passes through the land border. If you are importing or exporting to some of the west African countries, it's easier and more cost effective to use the land boarders than the sea port. Imagine a man exporting textiles to Ghana from Kano, how possibly will he do that through the sea port in APAPA? I am totally against rice smuggling but the government should have come up with smarter ideas to deal with this issue, and not shutting down the whole boarder. Presently I have about two trailers of hides and skin from Mali parked at the boarder incurring bills, with high possibility of spoiling within the shortest period of time because of its present condition. How do I import from Mali to Nigeria through the seaport? It is only those that does not understand what happens at the land boarders that are jumping up and down. Once again I reiterate my stance against smuggling rice through the boarders, but we have to be more tactical in handling certain issues as regards to our economy. This boarder issue in Nigeria is like a fly perching on a man's scrotal sack, you have to apply wisdom in dealing with it, if not you may end up hurting yourself terribly bad if you hit it with great force. 283 Likes 37 Shares |

“Don’t misunderstand us, we are not against closing of the borders for security reasons, but government should give us a leverage of allowing us to bring what we imported and exports what is been purchased from us, then they can close the borders till eternity,” he explained. The Q3 GDP report will be spicy. It seems alot small business are coming out of woodwork to complain. They'll just have use seaports or airports even if it doesn't make sense. Im going guess GDP grew 1.5%. PS: NBS never released 2018 crime statistics. 7 Likes |

BUSINESSARENAA: Lol Nigeria prefers scortched earth policies. Nobody in government can even articulate what polices they Benin or Nigeria to implement to reopen borders. All they do is shout their goal of limiting smuggling. This border closure makes some Nigerians feel powerful so they'll gladly keep it closed indefinitely even if it hurts their wallet. Any Ghana border closure thread is proof. America used a similar approach much more effectively. Nigeria should've took notes. Trump threatened sanctions against Mexico if they dont do more to curb illegal immigration. The US got Mexico to agree to more information sharing, station national guard at their southern border and keep asylum seekers in Mexico until their cases are resolved in the US. 19 Likes 4 Shares |

The truth is now coming out ..By the the time this is over Nigeria would have lost over 8 trillion Naira because shortsighted Buhari want local farmers to sell 500 thousand bags of rice Worth a paltry 6 billion reminiscent of how the same Buhari made the oil industry lose over 80 billion dollars because Buhari wanted to recover a paltry 35 million dollars from Tompolo ..Buhari is visionless and so myopic that anybody expecting positive results from him is like someone expecting Keke Napep to win a Formula one race . 119 Likes 13 Shares |
