Minister
of Science and Technology, Ogbonaya Onu says Nigeria will start
manufacturing her own pencil within the next 2 years. Ogbonnaya said
this during a facility tour of Projects Development Institute (PRODA)
in Enugu State yesterday January 5th. He said the local manufacturing of
pencils will provide 400, 000 jobs for unemployed Nigerians
“It
is unthinkable that 55 years after independence, Nigeria is still not
producing pencils when we have the human and material resources in the
country. PRODA has to produce pencils for Nigeria and they have given me
the assurance that this can be done and that with pencil manufacture
here, we will be creating 400,000 new jobs. The (Muhammadu) Buhari
administration is committed to creating new jobs and growing our
economy,” he said.

Lol..d most important is to c it become a reality and actually provide employment to d populace.. Bt mehn its so disappointing we don't produce ordinary pencil..gosh
God is a Good God, in the 80s Common entrance examination band the use of pencil made in Nigeria, meaning Nigeria was even making pencil when N1 was greater than dollar i till had those pencil very good, to the extend that if it was not HB pencil from oversea you won't be allowed into the examination hall. it made pencil companies in Nigeria to fold up and many family were crying by now those owner should be dead now because i was a child by then, we dare not enter with pencil made from Nigeria, what they were saying was the machine will not pick our score it was just a lie to sell the imported once. thank God corruption of the 80s is fading.

God is a Good God, bring the pencil companies back even though technology had improved. dont forget "there is no future in paper or simply say no paper in the future" ICT is growing faster than we think, i wish the examination bodies were not corrupt to have stop all made in Nigeria pencil in the 80s

Honestly I think if the Honourable minister and the government is so serious about this, it will brigde some gap in our economic losses considering the magnitude of Nigerian children that will benefit and the accompanied local employment. Let's be abjective guys!
