He does not only ask Nigerians to buy Naija made products, he does that himself. In one post he wrote.
“My dear fellow Nigerians,
As part of my #GrowNairaBuyNaija campaign, I chose to buy made-in-Nigeria shoes from Aba. I have since been informed by hundreds of my followers from the Southeast that such shoes are substandard in a viral post, with hundreds of comments making derogatory comments about the made-in-Aba shoes. It was my intention to wear at least one item from each geopolitical zone.
My usual hat is from the Northeast. My fabrics are nearly always from the Northwest or Southwest. My embroidery is always done in the North-Central. My walking stick and corals are from the South-South. And my shoes used to be from the Southeast. But I now know better.
Going forward, I will defer to their knowledge about their own craftsmanship, and discard them and purchase made-in-Kano shoes.
Please continue to support my campaign to buy made-in-Nigeria products.”
