membranus:As I explained earlier, after commng from a distance without issues, I went to the station around 10.30pm, filled my tank. Left early by 4.30am and within the first 20km, injector lights started flashing along with some loss of power. Ie the diesel I bought was bad. As I said, I do not know if it was imported or local diesel, but it looked different from the normal diesel we previously buy. Now, from my understanding the higher the sulfur content, the likely hood you suffer damage to your engines and even environment. Read dangote's statement, he said his sulfur content is lower than the imported one, but notice he his not say that of his own. No figure! The gov official meanwhile alleged dangote own is way higher than the average in Africa. African union wants 50ppa, that man said dangote is over 500- 800. Let dangote give us his figures tested by independent labs. Do you know it is as low 15ppa in eg UK? Imagine trucks, gens breaking down mysteriously. Injector nozzles cost over Β£200 a piece, you have 4-8 in trucks, gens. 2 Likes |

Kobojunkie: Dangote is now a fraudster because he has completed the Refinery in Lagos and all u Yorubas want is to take the Refinery from him . Ole |

The key learning points in all the debate as per the sulphur content . Recalled SON as part of its NIS set 100 ppm for Diesel (AGO) as part 2017 standard. However, NNPC vehemently kicked against it as at them, because enforcing the requirement will require NNPC to reconfigure/retrofit the FG owned refinery an ordous tasks to attain. |

justmondris:if he has been importing crude from the US for a while now then why is he now blaming some of cabal for his inability to obtain crude from Nigeria? By the way, why go all the way to US when right here in Africa there are other sources of crude apart from Nigeria? All of them na cabal too? The stories are all over the place and most of them quote him, Dangote. |

Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by justmondris: 6:06pm On Jul 20 |
Kobojunkie: Because it's cheaper for him to get from us than import from foreign countries. |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Kobojunkie: 6:10pm On Jul 20 |
justmondris:πππππ It is cheaper yet he went all the way to the U.S for crude oll since before January if we are to follow claims that he has in fact been selling produce from the same refinery since even then? He bypassed all African countries and headed for the U.S for all that time but now you want to convince us he wants cheaper? In another news Dangote is quoted as having said that his refinery is among the biggest in the world [b]He smiled and said βItβs the biggest in the world, itβs the first of its kind.β [/b]There were other posers from colleagues. Were there times he regretted going into this and even thought of throwing in the towel? What lessons came his way while constructing this? He was at home with every question on the bus ride and during the question and answer time after the tour.But the refinery does not even make the list at all. It is still not listed and is definitely not the largest or biggest in the world. |

justmondris:I already read that one before now, because that one leads me to wonder how a company in Nigeria that we are told has no operational license, can do business anyways freely. It sounds like he runs a business that is allowed to operate all while ignoring the requirements of standard organizations set up by the same government which it is said to have benefited from. But before all of that, did you read the reports that do claim that Dangote did in fact get over 1 million barrels of crude from NNPC?

Kobojunkie:@ that price the diesel is still cheaper. anything to reduce the suffering of Nigerians right now will suffice. If he's playing a Nigerian Government script, great, they should deal with themselves, the refinery is a game changer in the issues of fuel subsidiary hike and the chain reactions we have right. we need the refinery up and doing to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians. |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Kobojunkie: 9:42pm On Jul 20 |
adabaraabdul:Naira 1000 per liter is cheap? :oEven after all the cost of helping Dangote build that refinery for the Nigerian people, you all will still end up paying probably the same amount we pay here in the U.S. for the product. Yikes! π€π€π€π€π€ You know what? I remember warning Nigerians from as far back as maybe even 2007-2009 that if they continued to sit as zombies in their democracies, a time would come when Nigerians would have to pay the same price we do for things such as fuel and food in the U.S but not with the same ease that we do. I guess the time has finally come. Next to come would be heavy taxation because the government's spending has become unsustainable. β It is common sense that a nation that has its crude and as big as Nigeria should have at least 10 of those functioning at capacity and even exporting refined products to neighboring countries as well. |

Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Kobojunkie: 12:48am On Jul 21 |
Yusufisraelj:We also supposedly have laws against people operating without a license but it seems Dangote has been operating without that. So? |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Yusufisraelj(m): 12:52am On Jul 21 |
Kobojunkie: Lols, Kobo, you can tell that to someone not in the oil industry. Read up on PSSR and who issues the go ahead for any refinery or petroleum platform to operate. |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Kobojunkie: 12:56am On Jul 21 |
Yusufisraelj:You really think I am the one you should be feeding that bullsheet to? We are talking here of a man who has openly boasted that his refinery will provide 100% of the nation's needs. π€ Again, I asked a simple question... We also supposedly have laws against people operating without a license but it seems Dangote has been operating without that. So? π€ |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by adabaraabdul: 6:42am On Jul 21 |
Kobojunkie:Governemnt should do the needful. You spoke that the same government supported Dangote and now the change in Government are seeing alot of scam. The Government should have revamped our existing refineries. I'd rather place more blames on the government and little on Dangote. If Government have left us with only Dangote refinery to deal with, then let it be so. when dangote diesel got to the market, the prices of diesel reduced. Counting the positives. |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by Yusufisraelj(m): 6:56am On Jul 21 |
Kobojunkie: Have respect for numbers please. First of 650,000 barrels is about 103 million litres of crude, when operating at full capacity. Nigeria's petroleum needs is about 66 million litres per day, so where's the lie here? Secondly, NUPRC gives license for refineries or tank farms to operate in Nigeria, no such platform operates without licenses from this government agency and by the way the requirements are very stringent. How can you say Dangote operates without a license, that's preposterous. You don't seem to understand why Nigeria is where it is, to give you a perspective, why has all the four government refineries not been working after being built to running capacity? Why was the pipelines to warri refinery blown by hoodlums after completing when buhari borrowed money to fix a portion of the refinery for refining? Why was Ajaokuta steel plant not completed after reaching 98% completion? Why do we keep importing crude? Who benefits from making the country fail deliberately and why do they keep at it? |
Re: Dangote Defends Product Quality, Says Diesel 80% Better Than Imported Product by membranus: 8:37am On Jul 21 |
nedekid: The diesel you bought might have been from any others imported into the country, apart from those produced by Dangote.
