Dangote should go to hell, he is of no good to Nigerians, EMEIFELE sold 3.4billion dollars to him through the back window at cheap rates while Nigerians that were importing essential commodities could not get dollars at even official rate, where is the refinery he promised by july, despite all govt interventions, if not for bua s competition we would be buying cement 10k per bag

MrAgbako:
Good move

majesticguy:
Crashing the price of cement isn't the issue, increase in haulage costs arising from petrol price hike would always make the price of the commodity high or exorbitant.

Anambra could cater for the Eastern region, Cross River for the South South etc. This should be the best approach as to making cement affordable.

45 billion from India...lies


Dangote refinery opens in September...lies


Government refinery opens in December...lies


33billion foreign reserve...lies

Crashing of cement price ....another lie


The only truth are the policies to make the people suffer ... as long as say hardship no de am...just know say na lie

It's funny how you fools accuse others of what you have done all your pathetic lives.

Who spread hate more than you Igbos in Nigeria ? And I am repeating you igbos so you under how explicit I am on that.

Rail infrastructure is great, but it's also capital intensive. It's even more expensive than setting up a cement factory, and it's only the FG that'd be willing to undertake such project.

To my early submission, this is were partnership comes in. States could partner with the private sector to build these cement factories. Such partnership becomes a sort of direct investment to the state, in which every year the state get a return on their investment, thus boosting their IGR. If the capital is too much for a state, a whole region could pull resources together to invest and share returns amongst themselves. With a condusive business environment provided by the states or regions, I don't see how this can't be achieved.

Similarly, a small-scale cement plant with a production capacity of 50,000 tons per annum can cost around N300 million. 300million isn't much, for a state and private investor partnership.

While a large-scale plant with a capacity of 2 million tons per annum can cost upwards of N50 billion. Regions in partnership with the private sector could pull resources together to actualise this feat.

The best approach to making cement affordable is to set up cement factories across many zones in the federation as possible. Limestone deposits abound in many states of the country including Abia, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Bayelsa, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Enugu, Imo, Nasarawa, Ogun and Sokoto. Like Enugu and Anambra could cater for the Eastern region, Cross River for the South South etc. This should be the best approach as to making cement affordable.

Oga mi, talking of haulage concerns, na dem kill our rail system. This item & others like fuel, gas, heavy equipment, etc. aren't supposed to be moved by road but by rail. The self-centeredness of d cabal is what is killing us.

Willie2015:


D problem is the haulage cost..
D most effective way to cut down haulage cost is to have an effective railway coverage...
It last for generations, a self financing project and a cash cow...
It also cut across all sectors, cement , Oil, Agric , Human. Goods..gas etc...
Its a one stop solution to high haulage cost in Nigeria in every sector...
Ur solution is only for cement sector...
Should we start building plants for every sector that is affected by haulage cost...
Thats a simple No..
Rail coverage is the best modern practice ....
Apart from the FG...all the regions have the resources to undertake this
SW..SE...SS...NC...NE...NW..

Have you considered the smarter angle of these haulage trucks being converted to run on CNG rather than PMS would crash the haulage cost rather? Sometimes we have to think outside the box.

MrAgbako:

Those Igbos brains is fvcked up.
They hate tinubu
They hate dangote


Innoson is an "angel" 😂
Perhaps they would say tinubu should had visited innoson instead😂

Imagine people continually wailing because of the high price of cement and now that something had been done about it are still unhappy because tinubu was the man to get it right and not their failure Obi the Pandora thief 😂🏃

No doubt, your solution is apt and perfect, but, knowing the kind of country we leave in, can this be achieved?
How many of these regions would be willing to undertake a rail project for the purpose of unification the rail network/infrastructure across the country. But talk about direct investment and returns through partnership and many would gladly jump on the idea.

I still think haulage cost within regions would be at minimal in comparison to what we have now. A cement factory in Anambra State for instance can cater for neighboring states like Enugu, Ebony , Abia and Asaba. The cost for haulage from Anambra to any of these states would be cheaper, in comparison to if the cement were hauled from let's say Kogi state down to the east.


No doubt, the rail coverage is the main deal and if the government decides to invest in it, we all know it can't be achieved within a short period of time, so these factories are kinda lika a short term solution for the time being, while plans are made for proper rail coverage.

How you feel and the degree of ethnic bile inside of you isn’t my business. You should be more worried about that rather because that will eat you away slooooowly, by the time it manifests physically for you to atone, react or medically intervene, you’ll be rolling down the cliff too fast for anything to be done. Your fragments will be too toxic for anyone to salvage…but God bless the vultures. Those creatures can access any pit,crevice and rid the earth of toxins.
