The 43 items formed the critical sectors of the Nigerian economy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the motion, Jesse Onuakalusi (LP, Lagos) moved an amendment for the CBN to suspend the policy pending the intervention by the House, however, the amendment was rejected by the lawmakers.<\/p>\n<p>The motion was adopted unanimously when Speaker Abbas Tajudeen put it to vote.<\/p>\n<p>It can be recalled that in 2015, the CBN restricted the availability of foreign exchange to the importation of 43 items which could be locally produced within the country.<\/p>\n<p>In June 2015, the Central Bank announced that some 41 items were \u201cNot Valid for Foreign Exchange\u201d because they could easily be produced in Nigeria rather than being imported into the country.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the affected items include rice, cement, margarine, palm kernel, palm oil products, vegetable oils, meat and processed meat products, vegetables and processed vegetable products, poultry, tomatoes\/tomato paste, soap and cosmetics, and clothes.<\/p>\n<p>Other items include private aeroplanes\/jets, Indian incense, tinned fish in sauce, cold rolled steel sheets, galvanized steel sheets, roofing sheets, wheelbarrows, head pans, metal boxes\/containers, enamelware, steel drums and pipes, wire mesh, steel nails, wood particle boards, and panels.<\/p>\n<p>Equally affected were security and razor wire, wood particle and fibre boards and panels, wooden doors, furniture, toothpicks, glass\/glassware, kitchen utensils, tableware, tiles (vitrified, ceramics), textiles, wooden fabrics, plastic\/rubber products, polypropylene granules, and cellophane wrappers.<\/p>\n<p>The CBN subsequently added fertiliser and maize\/corn to the list of banned items.<\/p>\n<p>On 12 October, the CBN announced the restoration of the 43 items to the official FX platform.<\/p>\n<p>President Bola Tinubu had on Monday, during an appearance at the Nigeria Economic Summit held in Abuja, explained the reason for the policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve heard that the CBN removed about 43 items, I\u2019ve read all the comments, but there must be a clear line between monetary policy and fiscal policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre these items on trade embargo? No. You simply move them to the parallel market. Let\u2019s compete with whatever is available so that the government will work hard and bring more investment to the economy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
