Jamaica to Source Vehicles from Nigeria’s Innoson Vehicles Manufacturing

Jamaica has announced plans to source vehicles from Innoson Vehicles Manufacturing (IVM) in Nigeria.

This was revealed by the Jamaican High Commissioner to Nigeria, Esmond Reid, during a visit to the IVM plant in Nnewi, Anambra State.

Reid referred to the IVM factory as “top class” and expressed his excitement at the opportunity to source vehicles from Nigeria, one of Jamaica’s “brothers in the South”.

He plans to consult with stakeholders back home to determine the timeline and negotiations for the vehicle sourcing business.

In response, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffrey Onyeama, called for strict enforcement of the Presidential Executive Order that mandates government officials to buy and use Nigeria-manufactured vehicles.

Onyeama expressed his pride in Innoson and called for every government official to be obliged to buy and use a Nigerian-manufactured car.

This move by Jamaica is not only a great opportunity for the country to source top-quality vehicles from Nigeria but also a chance to support and encourage the citizens of both countries.

It is a step towards demystifying technology and promoting national pride.
