Made in Aba
Made in Aba is a piece that evokes the way that nigeria depend solely on foreign products.
Trade in Nigeria can be traced back to the need for exchange, which evolved from the barter system to the money system. Presently in Nigeria, there is a high exchange rate in the market for ideas, products, services, technology, and patronising locally made products becomes a challenge.
The idea of gathering different brand label is concerned with individual identity; labels serve a metaphorical context, whose purpose is to communicate status. This, therefore, illustrates a way of life as it is concerned with foreign brand preference over made in Nigeria products. As a result of this, the economic development of Nigeria will always be affected as unemployment will continue to be on the rise.
