MAN Complains Over Rising Cost of Energy, Erratic Power Supply

The Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) has cried out that the rising cost of energy and erratic power supply from the national grid is crippling their activities.

The MAN, has therefore called on the federal and state governments to rescue industries from the current unstable power supply and hikes in the price of diesel across the country.

In a statement, the chairman Kwara/Kogi states branch, Pharmacist Bioku Rahmon, said that there was the need to urgently rescue players and investors from the imminent orgy of unemployment and mass closure of companies currently looming in the country.

According to the statement, while the manufacturing industry was yet to fully recover from the monumental strangulations it suffered from the COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing energy crisis is the exact antithesis of what the industry can’t contain at this time.

It explained that the National Grid-Supplied Electricity has recorded no improvement which is greatly affecting the activities of MAN.

To this extent, the association called on the state and federal government to bail it out and save the manufacturing sector from imminent collapse.

It also asked that the interest rates on industrial loans be reduced by commercial banks adding that the government should widen the window of Foreign Exchange (FX) to industries and a drastic reduction of interest rates as done with the COVID-19 palliative.

‘Renewed wave of inflationary pressures further plunged the buying masses into extreme depths of poverty with concomitant erosion of customers’ Disposable Income (DI) and hence culminated in low patronage of our industrial finished products.

‘Foreign Exchange (FX) scarcity has worsened significantly, even as industry players continue to experience a sharp and growing shrink in the FX windows. This has led to major downturns and stress in the purchase and acquisition of foreign components for production.

‘The above have long resulted to sharp depletion in the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) of the manufacturing industry such as capacity utilisation, unsold goods inventory, and sector contribution to the National Gross Domestic Product (NGDP) especially since 2020.

100% Natural Herbs to Finally End Premature Ejaculation, Weak Erection and Small ‘In 2021, the unfriendly operating environment and inconsistent business and investment policies of government further paralysed the manufacturing Industry leading to weak results in the sector, all of which were further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic,’ the statement noted.

Rahmon appealed to the government to evolve measures that will address the challenges. ‘We appeal to the Federal Government of Nigeria and the Kwara State Government to rise to our urgent rescue to cushion the effect of this crisis on industries. We, therefore, recommend the following as vital matters and measures of utmost necessity and urgency.

“A Gas-Powered Energy Distribution Plant exclusively supplying power to industries should be installed in a state like Kwara State.

“The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) should give directives to commercial banks to reduce interest rates on industrial loans.

“The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) should further widen the window of Foreign Exchange (FX) to Industries.

“A significant and drastic reduction of the Interest rates charged on industrial loans and other loans released as COVID-19 interventions or palliatives to 2.5 per cent will be apt because the challenges arising from the ongoing energy crisis are far more biting than during the COVID-19 period.

“The Bank of Industry (BOI) should approve and urgently roll out further reductions in the bank’s lending rates to Industries.

“An executive task force should urgently be constituted with the mandate and power of state machinery to deploy aggressive measures of manhunt against saboteurs in the oil and gas industry and halt the spate of indiscriminate hiking of AGO (diesel) price and mindless extortion of end-users of the product. Others already constituted and mandated should be so empowered for action,” the statement said.
