Afis:
De ting tire man for Joe Attueyi! Luckily for him, 2019 cannot come soon enough.
On this "budget tires/tyres" matter, we should ask:
(1) Are "bullet-proof tyres" necessary? I presume that they are - for some security purposes - but the political "supporter" will give the benefit of the doubt, while the inverterate political "opposer" might be skeptical, even cynical of its necessity.
(2) What vehicles will they be used on, and how many tyres
(i) were bought in previous years
(ii) are to be bought this year, and why?
(3) What are the unit costs of these tyres:
(i) as delivered, if they are made in Nigeria? Probably not.
(ii) as delivered, if they are to be imported from abroad.?
If imported from abroad, I usually go to "Amazon.com" to get an idea of cost - but not dice. So I went to Alibaba.com:
Ex-factory, "bulltet-proof tyres" go from $1-2 per set to $1600 to $2000 per set
bullet proof 16/70-20 spongy solid tire
US $1-2 / Set
10 Sets (Min. Order)
--------------------------------------------
Light Weight CNGC Run-flat Bullet Proof Tire
US $1600-2000 / Piece
1 Piece (Min. Order)
---------------------------------------------------------
So at N305 - 516 per dollar - and when you add shipping and insurance costs, you can better assess. For example, N100 million will buy 100 tyres for $2000 each at N500 per $.....okay?
And there you have it. We should be skeptical, but not cynical.

Good morning sir, General Williams.Stop believing everything you read from Motive-Joe Attueyi.It is one thing to not want Buhari as president, which is mine or Joe's prerogative, however it is quiet vicious and unprogressive to try to destroy the President for your own pecuniary gains.How much is N100m in good currency?Motive-Joe runs errands with self-serving, ulterior motives!Shikena
