A group of Nigerian Private Business men is currently in the country holding discussion with the Liberian Business Association (LIBA) to seek a business partnership with their Liberian counterparts.

The talks are geared toward providing the Liberian market with good quality and quantity Nigerian made products compared to products from the Western world.

The discussions which took place at the head office of the Liberia Business Association (LIBA) in Sinkor, brought together some top Nigerian business entities including the Nigerian (MAN), an export promotional group currently in the country.

In an interview with The Analyst hours after the discussion with some executives of LIBA, the President of the Nigerian Association of Small Scale Industrialists (NASSI), Alih Sannsi Maijama'a disclosed that his association provides 60% of Nigeria Business climate.

The Nigerian business executive said their objective and mission to Liberia is to make sure the Liberian market gets good, quality products through the partnership that is already underway between the two countries.

He said a list of products already manufactured by their entities is in the making to be delivered to their Liberian counterpart as sample. "We're prepared to bring quality products to the Liberian Business climate", he said.

According to him, an export entity styled and named 'Export Trade-Liberia Incorporated' has met all the legal and other necessary requirements and has registered with the Liberian government.

Mr. Maijama'a told this paper that discussions on the formation of a partnership with Liberia has been ongoing for close to two years, and that they have visited the Liberian market sometimes ago and even before their discussion with LIBA.
