As substandard goods continue to come into the country, the local manufacturers and industries will be destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn other climes, when you buy a product and sell it to the public and someone is injured or they don\u2019t get satisfaction to the product, you will be sued and then money is lost or sometimes jail.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Nigeria, we have it develop to that level. We have the laws but we have not developed to the level where some get punished,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Dr Kayode Farinto, Vice President, Association of Nigeria Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA), called for the rerun of SON to the ports.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the return of SON to the ports will ensure the war against substandard goods in the country is achieved.<\/p>\n<p>Farinto, speaking on \u2018Juxtaposing Substandard Imports, SON\u2019s Absence at Seaport\u2019, said that if the trend was not arrested urgently by providing a solution, it could negatively affect the economy and dwindle the nation\u2019s income.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSON vacated the seaport few years ago and was doing its regulatory role outside the port.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut unfortunately, some nonconformist who import sub-standard goods has shown that there was need to reverse the Executive Order.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis will ensure the country wins the war against importation of sub-standard goods in the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Farinto urged freight forwarders, licensed customs brokers to shun dishonesty in its declaration, concealment, inaccurate description of imports and exports and others.<\/p>\n<p>He said that if all these impediments were done away with, it would enable the country achieve ease of doing business.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Mr Tochukwu Ezisi, President, National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF), urged SON to always liaise with stakeholders in their operations.<\/p>\n<p>Ezisi, represented by his Chief of Staff, Rev. Emma Agunbaze, said that engagement with stakeholders was key to improving accountability within the organisation as well as external audiences.<\/p>\n<p>The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Federal Government in 2011 reduced the number of government agencies that were allowed to participate in cargo clearance at the seaports from 14 to 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON), says importation of substandard goods poses danger to the standard of living and also affects national development negatively.
