The Senator, who was a guest speaker at Prof. Emeka Umerah’s Public Lecture, organized in Solidarity with President Bola Tinubu Administration, said that companies like Michellin, Dunlop, Toyota and many others exited the soil of Nigeria, but still have their products flood the country’s markets.
According to Oshiomhole, the companies have moved to build other country’s economy, by providing job opportunities for the citizens of such country, and therefore should not be allowed to be reaping from Nigeria where they are not contributing anything to its GDP.
