(African-Trade Research Centre News) Amakuru y’isoko rikoreshwa (AMI), isosiyete ikora ubushakashatsi ku isoko mu Bwongereza, iherutse kuvuga ko ishoramari rinini mu bihugu bya Afurika ryagize akarere "kamwe mu masoko ashyushye ya polymer ku isi muri iki gihe."
Isosiyete yashyize ahagaragara raporo y’ubushakashatsi ku isoko rya polymer muri Afurika, iteganya ko ikigereranyo cy’ubwiyongere bw’umwaka buri mwaka cy’ibisabwa na polymer muri Afurika mu myaka 5 iri imbere kizagera kuri 8%, kandi ubwiyongere bw’ibihugu bitandukanye muri Afurika buratandukanye, muri byo muri Afurika yepfo umuvuduko wubwiyongere bwumwaka ni 5%. Coryte d'Ivoire yageze kuri 15%.
AMI yavuze yeruye ko ibintu ku isoko rya Afurika bigoye. Amasoko yo muri Afrika yepfo na Afrika yepfo arakuze cyane, mugihe ibindi bihugu byinshi byo munsi yubutayu bwa Sahara biratandukanye cyane.
Raporo y’ubushakashatsi yashyize ahagaragara Nigeriya, Misiri na Afurika yepfo nk’isoko rinini muri Afurika, kuri ubu rikaba rifite hafi kimwe cya kabiri cy’ibisabwa na polymer. Umusaruro hafi ya wose wa plastike mukarere ukomoka muri ibi bihugu bitatu.
AMI yagize ati: "Nubwo ibi bihugu bitatu byashora imari cyane mu bushobozi bushya, Afurika iracyafite ibicuruzwa biva mu mahanga, kandi biteganijwe ko iki kibazo kitazahinduka mu gihe kiri imbere."
Ibicuruzwa byiganjemo isoko rya Afurika, kandi polyolefine igera kuri 60% yibisabwa byose. Polypropilene irakenewe cyane, kandi ibi bikoresho bikoreshwa cyane mugukora imifuka itandukanye. Ariko AMI ivuga ko icyifuzo cya PET kiriyongera cyane kuko amacupa y'ibinyobwa ya PET asimbuza imifuka gakondo ya polyethylene.
Ubwiyongere bukenewe kuri plastiki bwakuruye ishoramari ry’amahanga ku isoko rya Afurika, cyane cyane mu Bushinwa n'Ubuhinde. Biteganijwe ko inzira yinjira mu mahanga izakomeza. Ikindi kintu cyingenzi gitera ubwiyongere bwibisabwa na polymer niterambere rikomeye ryiterambere ryibikorwa remezo nibikorwa byubwubatsi. AMI ivuga ko hafi kimwe cya kane cya Afurika ikenera plastike ituruka muri utwo turere. Icyiciro cyo hagati cyo muri Afurika cyiyongera nizindi mbaraga zingenzi zitwara. Kurugero, gupakira porogaramu zirimo munsi ya 50% kumasoko yose ya polymer.
Nyamara, Afurika ihura n’ibibazo bikomeye mu kwagura umusaruro w’ibisigisigi byaho kugirango bisimbuze ibitumizwa mu mahanga, kuri ubu bitumizwa cyane cyane mu burasirazuba bwo hagati cyangwa Aziya. AMI yavuze ko imbogamizi mu kwagura umusaruro zirimo amashanyarazi adahungabana ndetse n'imvururu za politiki.
Ikigo cy’ubushakashatsi ku bucuruzi bw’Ubushinwa na Afurika gisesengura ko iterambere ry’inganda n’ibikorwa remezo nyafurika ndetse n’ibikenerwa n’abaguzi kuva mu cyiciro cyo hagati ari ibintu by'ingenzi bizamura iterambere ry’inganda zo muri Afurika zikora plastike, bigatuma Afurika iba imwe mu masoko ashyushye ya polymer ku isi muri iki gihe. Raporo zifitanye isano zerekana ko muri iki gihe Nigeriya, Misiri na Afurika y'Epfo ari byo bihugu bikoresha amasoko manini ya Afurika muri Afurika, kuri ubu bikaba bingana na kimwe cya kabiri cya Afurika ikenera polymer. Ubwiyongere bwihuse bukenerwa muri plastiki muri Afurika nabwo bwakuruye ishoramari ry’amahanga kuva mu Bushinwa no mu Buhinde ku isoko rya Afurika. Biteganijwe ko iyi nzira yo gushora imari mu mahanga izakomeza.
