Let me begin by giving us an insight into Chinese products. All over the world, China is known as an Industrial State, most of the products are duly accepted and traded around the world: in the US,UK, Dubai, Turkey, Egypt, South Africa, Italy, etc, China products are booming the markets and they are known for standard goods. But here in Nigeria, China products/goods are referred to sub-standard goods probably because major business men/ Importers travel to China demanding mass production: a handful quality used to produce a large quantity of goods thus leaving the products sub-standard. Most of these products ranging from electronics, phones, clothes, shoes, etc, are therefore referred to as “China products” and nicknamed “Chinko or Chi-chi products” for those who know or use these products in Nigeria. Sometimes, Aba sub-standard products maybe labelled “made in China” because of recognition and approval but in recent times most Nigerians are no longer deceived by these labels.
