Too lengthy

How is this article too lengthy?

simplemach:
Goodnews, atleast now we make our own cars. Who knows, may be by 2016, there would be no more car imports

Not exactly.....we assemble cars in Nigeria from imported parts....although there is some effort by gents like Innoson to improve local content (Innoson says he is up to 50% local content ). That is why Ajaokuta has to be sorted out fast.

That doesn't take into dos brougth in by smugglers sha o

that's a good news. we need to develop our nation and patronized our own goods.

my signature, your benefits.

Nice devo.... GMB 2015

Nope, he said upto 70% local content. Getting there gradually.

...Because some few cars were produced I feel so ashamed sometimes when these people talk. Gosh!! Even pipe borne water we don't get yet someone is spewing this trash.

These men are at best politicians. They lie and lick balls a lot.

One at a time.. Or go there and let's see what you can do.

ok

Ok

This is to remind all Nairaland of an emergency
meeting that will hold today come 4pm at our
chairman's place, please don't forget to come with our pledges.
Space keeping a gbe wa o...
Ase
announcer
ImoleAy0, adviser to the chairman on special
duties.

That's a good 1...GEJ is working hard

And this is part of the crappy dividends of this istration. Local production still not hitting 1% of demand and yet importation dropping by 20%.
People being driven further below the poverty line, import duty hikes preventing people from owning newer, more modern vehicles that are more fuel efficient, pollute less and are safer. As a result, more Nigerians are using old, decrepit and less safe vehicles on the road.

Despite this, we still get the same stories and chest beating, largely revolving around Innoson. Where are the Nissan cars we were promised? All we get are PR pieces. Why has none of the pricing details been released?

k read but too long to undesrtand

It is not abt being negative. It is a pointer dat more work in needed in curbing smuggling. Smuggled cars are even almost always in worse conditions compared to dos dat are legally imported.

I think this is a propaganda. Assembly of cars is even fully yet to hit the ground running. I was at Nissan yesterday and I was told that only one model of Nissan cars is being assembled in the country. Toyota is still g MoUs. Innoson is still proving to Nigerians that he can produce cars rather than he can sells cars. I think we need to start requesting for verifiable evidences when we see report like this.

omenka:
Absolutely. Something like mortgage financing.

You see, the whole stuff transcends just producing these cars. A lot has to be set in motion for such business to thrive. As it stands, it seems only the government and transporters are patronising them. My hope is that someone stops feeling complacent, roll up their sleeve, put their minds to task, put pen to paper and paper to policies that ensure these gains are not eroded before they come full bloom.

brilliant mind!

Thks to thiS government.http://www.raphruks.com

Omenka is a goat

omenka:
I know. I've seen the pictures long time ago. What I'm saying is it is just sheer foolishness to start comparing Nigeria with those countries simply because we've produced some cars when we are yet to even put in place very basic stuffs of development like pipe borne water, electricity, eradicate hunger, and shelter for Nigerians.

Making such is statement at this point is simply playing a sycophant.

Some valid points made above.

We need to get the basics right in this country in my opinion.

i think you should read that statement again maybe i am the only one not seeing what your saying.... cos i didnt see where he compared Nigeria to those countries all i saw was him talking about Nigeria's determination to the big guys and if you ask me that's a great dream so long as the master plan is followed it can be achieved

This calls for some form of improvement, but be that as it may be, the government can still reduce it further to the nearest minimum, by so doing doing they should encurrage locally made cars/ industries by granting of tax holidays to such company, and finally, we can even export to other small nations, I think this will help strengthen our economy.

We encourage manufacturing without fixing electricity. What kind of joke is that.

LOL @ ing the league of industrialized nations. You cannot become industrialized without POWER. Until we have 24/7 power, we will be chasing shadows.

Ever since I knew you on this forum, you've always been negative. Even to a goodnews as this, you still remained negative.
Tell me why GEJ won't be clueless in your eyes?

You'll always have a good reason to remain negative. Please, were you born NEGATIVE?
