Very soon there will be no more second hand tyres to buy in Nigeria. Standards Organization of Nigeria have embarked on a mission to get rid of all fairly used tyres being sold in Nigeria and have also stopped the importation of these tyres, because according to them, 'second-hand tyres are killers like HIV/AIDS'.The executives at Ladipo market, the most popular auto market in Lagos, have asked traders in the market to stop selling fairly-used tyres. SON gave the traders until August 17th to get rid of the 'killer' tyres of face the wrath of the law.I don't know if second tyres are killers like HIV/AIDS but I know they are so useless. I used to buy them...like every three months...lol. The brand new tyres were so expensive, so we settled for the N3/4k ones that will serve you for just a few months...if you're lucky! :-)
