If PMB actually cared about stopping the importation of goods to increase the revenue generated from homegrown/made products, instead of stopping the flow of dollars (which would cause shortage and sharply increase inflation) he would just increase the taxes on imported goods sharply.

A high tax on imported goods would naturally curb the market for importation and indirectly make the people depend more on products made in the country. If people still choose to import the government would then make a killing in taxes!

Now ask yourself why Buhari won't do this? Well for one Buhari is very old and is being controlled by those around him who are giving him advise. One would have to assume these people aren't dull like Buhari and know the error in his way. They however would never tell him. ... why?

Why? If the FG increases taxes highly on imports the cost for the lavish cars, foods, merchandise, etc... goes up tremendously! Basically, the rich will be paying much more for their lavish lifestyle. These politicans in the APC know this and would refuse to be under such a "burden", because they would never give up their expensive way of life; which needs importation in order to "survive".

I don't see the usual APC zombies fighting against this? Why is that?

I guess they see the common sense in this.

The question to ask is why doesn't Buhari?
