Buy Nigeria Campaign!!!
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said that the ministry will soon embark on “Buy Nigeria Campaign’’ to raise awareness on local contents. The minister made the disclosure when the management of Omatek Ventures Plc demonstrated its locally made Light-Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs and fluorescent in his office.
The company also demonstrated its locally assembled computers, solar panels and components for generating power into homes and offices. Mohammed said that the campaign would help to sensitise the public to the benefits of patronizing Nigerian products.
The minister underscored the need for Nigerians to develop the habit of conserving power, stressing that “when you reduce power consumption, you create energy.’’The minister said the country might have to legislate and enforce the use of LED lighting products which use less energy and last longer than other types of lighting systems.
The Chief Executive Officer of Omatek, Mrs Florence Seriki, explained that LED bulbs and fluorescent tubes save energy, were brighter than other products, do not get hot and last for minimum of five years. According to her, while a conventional bulb consumes 66.9W, an LED bulb with brighter light consumes just 7.3W.
Mrs Seriki explained that the company had a local manufacturing plant for LED products and assembly plants for computers and solar power panel and accessories. She said the solar power panels and accessories were of different capacity for generating electricity for homes, offices and factories. Seriki said the company had a consumer scheme, particularly for civil servants and workers in private offices, for seamless payments through their monthly salaries. continue
