Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by dannywest: 6:26pm On Nov 01, 2012 |
Saw these as snippets from the World Bank Youth Forum. What do you think? This was for just 1000 positions. If true, I feel bad for all the graduates fighting each other on nairaland just weeks back. Dangote group has stated that it plans to make entrepreneurs out of its Graduate Executive Truck Drivers.www.paradigmshiftng.com/2012/11/dangote-graduate-drivers-to-own-truck.html?m=1 4 Likes

If this is true then its not a bad idea, infact its a good bargain. Those earlier condemning this might want to have a rethink. |
Re: Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by confieey(m): 8:46am On Nov 02, 2012 |
So the 300k settles for haulage allowance and not the take home after month end? |
Re: Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by vislabraye(m): 8:49am On Nov 02, 2012 |
That's good. 300,000 km would take a few years to cover. Not a bad deal cos the truck are brand new. |

confieey: So the 300k settles for haulage allowance and not the take home after month end? In trucking, you are paid per trip.. I once told somebody that long haul truck drivers make a shitload of money.. 1100km driving at 80km/hh thats a 13 hour drive.. plus 2 - 3 hrs for traffic and potholes.. 300,000 in 20hrs isnt bad.. 4 trips per week and thats a million Naira easy!! 1 Like |

Do you know what 300k kilometre is? Some of the drivers would have been long gone and buried before the trucks reach 300k. 2 Likes |

Okija_juju: Well polished...but it doesn't play that easy. Have you been to the ports and seen the waiting period for loading? Or Obajana cement factory?...I persoanlly don't think a truck driver makes 48Million per annum. (1M x4(month)x12(a year). 4 Likes |

Oseniade: 300,000 km? That's worth at least 7yrs of slavery. its worth more. Plus or minus 13/14 years. These thrucks spend more time loading, and off loading, than u can imagine. And its 300,000 km, not 300,000 naira. Driving trucks aint funny o, its when u start that u will understand, what it means driving to d north, consistently for the next, God knows hw long. All d same, its good dangote employs 6500 graduates, to reduce d labour market for other graduates. Thank u dangote, nigerian graduates r grateful 5 Likes |

If one manages 2 trips per month thats 600k and how many white collar Jobs can guarantee that in a year? 1 Like |

300K Haulage per trip means you would be required to fuel the truck to and fro, settle some little expense that may occur in the course of the journey, which will leave the driver with about 50k at cost of 150 naira per litre of gas. 1 Like |

I want you guys to understand what 300,000km is. From Lagos to PH its between 650km-700km depending on the route you take. From Lagos to Kano would be over a thousand kms. Depending on how frequently you're on the road within 2 to 4 years you've complete 300,000km. For the young grads, not a bad deal. |
Re: Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by Cupidkc(m): 9:33am On Nov 02, 2012 |
300k per trip? Apart from their basic salary. Huh thats gross,i doubt it. |

Well Dangote is a business man and is not running a charitable organisation. He knows how well HGV drivers earn in the developed countries and as such trying to entice people to come and "chop' with him. Dangote knows quite well that by the time these trucks get to 300,000km milleage; they will all have a zero book value in their account statement and will possible be sold as scraps! what really interest me is that 13,000 graduates applied for this job; 65 of them have MBA and 6 have Phd! I guess they all have their own back up plans! 2 Likes |

This is the 21st century people, nothing is giving away that easily! Haba!! If he pays that much the how much profit would he make? But this whole thing would have been better using rail! Save our roads Less risk More employment(to construct and maintain) Cost way less More cargo in one trip And the list goes on! Nigeria, when are we going to learn!? 6 Likes |

dannywest: He never said he would pay N300,000 but that he would give the truck to the driver after completing an Odometer trip of 300,000 kilometers. It will take you at least 9 years of haulage for a new truck to average 300,000 kilometers. My 3 year old car still dey 75,000 kilometers. |
Re: Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by Ikandah: 9:58am On Nov 02, 2012 |
After 300,000km? This is cool settlement. Even at an average speed of 300km/day, the deal takes effect after 1000 days, that is, working for about 200 days per year, the task is completed in 5 years(approx). |

Okija_juju: Oga, you cant make 4 trips in a week. Some trucks break down though not common with new trucks. You spend time at the factory waiting for your turn to load and then at depot waiting to offload. You can at much make 2 trips in a week. The condition of the roads and the seasons matter too. During heavy rainy season, a driver makes just one trip in a week because of shortfall in product demand. I deal with drivers who carry some goods for me. 2 Likes |
Re: Dangote To Give Graduate Drivers Trucks After Use by mrprince3: 10:14am On Nov 02, 2012 |
dannywest:"excerpt" He added that the drivers get trip allowances on each trip along with their salaries; after accomplishing 300, 000 kilometres with the truck, they will own it at no interests or repayments. WHERE DID YOU SEE 300K (thousand) i wonder what makes you a graduate if you cant comprehend this simple english passage. Shakes my head! 2 Likes |
