To put it harshly, what you hint at is rusedial slave mentality. The solution is education. People need to be re-programmed, re-brainwahsed. Education. First and most powerful is to expose this slave mentality. If one will chose Milan over Aba or Kano one the basis of a label without regard to quality of the product, then such a one must be exposed as an ignorant and shallow slave. Teach social introspection. Encourage afrocentricity. Second. If Made in Aba can pass for Made in Milan, then the quality must be of a reasonable standard, so people need to be taught to take pride in our own work by emphasising the quality of materials and craftmanship involved in domestic production. Raise the appreciation of Aba and Kano and wherever else. People need to understand that we are just as good if not better in certain regards. Third. Made in Aba should surely be ‘less costly’ (for the ignorant would flinch at the word ‘cheaper’) than Milan – so you teach equal/better quality which is more affordable. On the plus side, if it’s happening in furniture, music, and obviously catching on in fashion, then hopefully critical mass is not far off and the spread into all other facets of our existence can be anticipated and encouraged.
