The latest report by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), showed inflation figures at a 17-month high, rise to 11.61% in October.
In her reaction: Ahmed said, “I need to remind us that the border closure is temporary. We have really advanced in our discussions between ourselves and our neighbours.
“We expect that the outcome of those discussions and agreements is that each party will respect the protocols that we all committed to and then the borders will be open again.
“What we are doing is important for our economy. We signed up to the African Continental Free Trade Area (ACFTA) agreement, we have to make sure that we put in place checks to make sure that our economy will not be overrun as a result of the coming into effect of the ACFTA.
“That is why we have this border closure to return to the discipline of respecting the protocols that we all committed to.”

ReplyDeleteWhen will our leaders get it right?, Well I will continue praying that the good Lord should help build our nation and guide our leaders right.
ReplyDeleteEach time Buhari is the president of this country people suffer more than the usual, the past years he was the president things never seems easy for anyone. They should stop this shit of closure and allow people have a little flow of goods.
