Debating the motion, the lawmakers said that in the past seven years, several manufacturing companies especially those in the fast moving goods industries have either left Nigeria or stopped production.

They said companies like Surest Foam Limited, Mufex, Framan Industries, MZM continental, Nipol Industries, Jubilee Syringe among top Pharmaceutical companies have all exited the country due to Nigeria’s operational environment.
