    It was a great privilege showing eboh media around our almighty LeatherWorld market here in Aba!
    where with little or no help from the state government.
    For over 3 decades
    Aba entrepreneurs has been making us proud.
    Even with their outdated equipments the are still able to make up-to date fashion styles.
    Even though the are far from perfect 👌🏽. The show that there is dignity in Labour.
    ABA TO THE WORLD 🌎
    Please guys watch Ads oooo😝

    Reason why those manufacturers do put on those int'l brand names/logos is b/cos gullible Nigerians dat doesn't appreciate/believe in made in aba/nigeria product'll purchase the item cos de think is made from the abroad..
    We should start believing in ourself and what we do if we really want to grow & go far to compete in d global mkt the mentality of na aba made' still lingers..

    This is eye opening.
    With constant power supply, they can boost productivity by so much.
    These market and Aba need to be cleaned, roads fixed.
    Some of them, most are working in shops with no windows or ventilation.
    Our Craftmen should be proud of their craft and stamp "Made in Aba", "Made in Nigeria ". Their products are better in quality than somethings in the Obodo Oyibo. They can even write their company names like "Chubby Nigeria".
    Modern business men can go in and teach these hardworking men and women how to market their proudly made in Nigerian goods to the world using social media. They can be taught to do this individually or collectively.
    Some of these men working here have children that were sent to University using money from these crafts. These children should use social media to take these businesses to greater heights.
    Finally Nwannem, when next you do a video like this, when they say the amount in Naira, during editing, show the dollar equivalent on the screen. Your viewers are global. Ya gazie.

      Hello Kingsley, what do you mean by show components? From the video, I was also worried that all materials used in the shoe production were imported. That's a massive deal of capital flight. Please tell me more about your parent's aspects of the shoe business.
      Also, I would like to understand how much of the materials used in making these shoes are sourced from Nigeria? for example, I suppose that some of the leather should be sourced from Kaduna or Kano?

    Aba's potential has always been there. What is lacking are 2 fold: effective leadership (both state and federal ) and private vision.
    I will explain. The state governments in Abia since 1999 has been useless. If they had vision and sense, they would have demolished the market and organize the place. The federal government can use policy of mandating all uniformed formations to source their footwear and clothing from Aba. That will be a game changer. But I know they won't do it.
    Igbo rich men are slacking big time. Can you imagine if all these money bags can organize these guys and float shoe and clothing companies? It would be massive.
    Africans lack imagination. The reason why we are backwards.

    Hey brother i came across ur channel and found this video pretty cool cause i have a really good friend that has a couple of shops in Abuja, Nigeria, she is thinking of opening another shop just for foot wear. I will subscribe to ur channel so that when she is ready i can hit u up for some advice on the shop owners u thought that was most helpful and true.

    Just came across your video. Could you image if these shoes are exported outside of Nigeria? Wow
