Nigeria’s Raw Materials Research and Development Council (RMRDC) Director-General Nnanyelugo Ike-Muonso urged manufacturers to prioritise local inputs and value addition at the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria’s 54th annual general meeting in Lagos. The council’s October 7 report described NISSRAMP as an existing sourcing platform that maps raw-material and supplier information to Harmonised System codes.

MAN president Francis Meshioye said total exports in 2025 were ₦85.13 trillion, of which manufactured exports were ₦2.50 trillion, or 2.94%. The RMRDC chief advocated a 30% local value-addition requirement, but the report does not say the related bill is in force. It also did not announce a new launch of the existing platform.

### Proposals and sourcing platform at MAN AGM

Existing platform, value-addition proposal and manufacturing constraints discussed at the MAN AGM.

Methodology: Facts are based on the RMRDC report; proposals, policies and expectations are not described as enacted rules or completed projects.

| Topic | Detail |
|---|---|
| NISSRAMP use | RMRDC said its existing platform maps raw materials to Harmonised System codes and provides information on locations, reserve estimates, processing capacity and suppliers. |
| 30% value addition | RMRDC DG said the Council was pursuing enforcement; the separate 30% bill was proposed, not enacted. |
| Manufacturing constraints | MAN president cited high electricity and logistics costs, policy uncertainty, infrastructure gaps, limited finance, weak value chains and skills/technology gaps. |
