Former Nigeria Minister, Mr Femi Fani Kayode, has described the Comptroller General of Custom, Col. Hameed Ali (rtd), as one who is dumb as he looks, following his comment that China once closed its border for 40 years.
Writing through his Twitter handle, Fani Kayode opined that border closure does not in any way boost a nation’s economy.
See his tweets below:
“China closed their border for 40 years and today they are great”- Col. Hameed Ali, C-G Nigerian Customs.
“This man belongs to the stoneage and is clearly as dumb as he looks. May God deliver us from the debilitating gullibility and crushing ignorance of these Buharists.” — Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK) November 4, 2019
“…Has protectionism and closing your borders ever boosted a nations economy? China’s strength lies in her willingness to TRADE with the outside world and in the size of her population and market. The fact that most of the world has access to that market has made her very rich.” — Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK) November 4, 2019
“..Can someone please explain all this to almajiri Hameed! He seems to have zero understanding about how the new and modern world is run and about how nations prosper.” — Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK) November 4, 2019
