Aisha Yesufu is also a Batist grin . You might not like PBAT but he's not like other vegetables that we previously had as presidents and won't tolerate any form of monopoly that brought down our economy to this stage. How I wish the emergency lovers & Sympathizers of Dangote can take a moment to have a rethink.
1. How did we benefit from Dangote's homemade cement? His cement is even more expensive than the imported ones.
2. His fertilizers is as expensive as the imported ones?
3. Dangote was part of those who caused the avoidable debt we have as a nation. Emefiele & PMB had to borrow loans to subsidized the USD for Dangote to build his refinery.
4. when the national treasure was run dry bcs of government pet like him, the PMB administration had to use our crude to borrow loans in advance from AFDB. And that's why Nigeria will have to pay the debt with 40-55% of its crude
5 The same greedy Dangote wanted to buy crude in Naira sell in USD rate for we the masses, which is where he had issues with PBAT.
The truth is Dangote can't thrive elsewhere except in a corrupt system that stylishly support monopoly because of tribalism and personal interests. Let him try other countries (after all his wealthy friend has taunted him and the question is: is his wealthy friend has wealthy as him undecided), You might hate PBAT for now but he is all out to reform and break every form of spoon feeding few individuals with the national wealth.
Dangote knew that there are competitive days ahead bcs the likes of Elumelu is also planning to set up his refinery and some India investors. Dangote is pained because it's no longer business as usual.

So we should wait another 5 or 10 yrs for others to build refinery b4 we end importation of fuel.
Don't worry naira go reach 5000 per dollar by then. Then we will see the foolishness of leaders u supporting as they impoverish the masses due to their greed.

Dangote refinery must work now. Either they allow him do his job or buy it out and make it work.
Nigeria can't wait for another donkey years for others to build refinery .

Why should Niger Delta own even quarter of a share in that refinery when they neither contributed a quarter kobo or efforts to it? People Like reaping where they did not sow. All the militants leaders that have been vandalising pipelines and doing bunkery since God knows when can not come together and build a Refinery. The state governments in the Niger Delta with all their 13% allocation of this world can not come together and build one. Marching ground money could not do it too. All they do is disrupt.

The refinery is not located in the Niger Delta and crude is not going to be gotten from their for free.

What then is the rationale for your assertion?

Good points you make. Crude Oil is not cement manufacturing.
Technically building a refinery, with subsidized forex from CBN, technically means there is a portion of that refinery that belongs to all Nigerians.
why ? Because the subsidized dollars, was money generated from Nigerians revenue. the revenue belongs to all 300 million Nigerians.
Even asides the 13% derivation awarded to Niger Delta states.
When they say forex is subsidized, who do you think is paying the subsidy....its me and you !! All that Money Emefiele was sharing to Buhari's cronies belongs to all of us.
That refinery has everyone's sweat in it. So coming out to claim 90% ownership and trying to arm twist the governement to hand over the lucrative crude.diesel and petrol to him, is a very bold claim.

why didnt the governors of niger delta buy a stake Sgould Dangote just dash them 30% of his investment, why the governors keep looting spree

The subsidized dollars Emefiele gave Dangote belongs to all Nigerians, Me and you inclusive.
When they say Forex is subsidized, that means the difference between the CBN rates and the rate given to Dangote is derived from the crude oil sales. Our money was used to subsidize the refinery.
Crude Oil belongs to all Nigerians. So technically, there is our blood, sweat and tears in that refinery. every single Nigerian.

You miss the point. Congrats on building a refinery. But dont force your refinery on our national wealth. Nigerian crude oil belongs to 300 million Nigerians.
Trying to force himself into the food chain of the whole country is what we are against. We are against i must buy crude oil from you and i must sell petrol to you.
That's not business, that's Mafia/Cartel Vibes.......No one should treat an elected Government like that. Is he above the Government ?

So we should continue to import fuel? because that's the only feasible alternative.

If govt have issue with dangote, they should buy out the refinery or make it public n bring other investors.
But that refinery must work. Enough of fuel importation.

This is the most ridiculous explanation i have ever heard lol. Dollar was not subsidized. Dangote bought dollars at CBN rate, not subsidy. Can you try to get your facts right abeg? lol. Na wa o. In this modern age of google, somebody is still typing lubbish.

Many Nigerians jumping on popular opinions do not even know what they are defending Dangote about. Tinubu has weighed the risks associated with the condition and realized how dangerous it is for the country. It is total enslavement of the country to a single individual which he is trying to protect against but dumb Nigerians with their ignorance will not patiently learn facts before fighting
farmers are now increasing food cost at will even when no unforeseen cost just because buhari gave them power by stopping food inport and now people are buying a tuber of yam for 5k. Dangote is not a patriot look at his other products which of them is even affordable. The same competition that kept his spagetti price in check is what he doesn’t want. Just like the cement price he wants to be in total control of the economy I think that man has a bigger plan and I suggest he should be arrested and properly questioned.

Imagine the nonsense this one dey spew. This Dangote dude has been enjoying monopoly & favoritism from a corrupt FGN since the military regime of Babangida. He's NOT the astute businessman y'all mistake him to be. He's the enabler of corruption.

This is the same dude that built the Apapa / Gbagada expressway in exchange for tax forfeiture. Do you realize the opportunity cost for the FGN? It's way more than what the meagre cost of building the road. angry angry angry

Forex was subsidized.
Tinubu just removed the subsidy on dollars.He made it free floating dictated by the open markets.
CBN Rate dollars were subsidized. Money that should have gone to Nigerians, infastructures building was used to subsidize the dollar at a pegged rate.

So anything built or paid for with subsidized dollars actually has a Nigerian ownership in it, technically.

Keep supporting your clueless and incompetent Tinubu.
Same abrupt and disastrous decision he made with floating the naira and ending fuel subsidy is what he's about to make again.
Know this now, if that refinery goes down, lots of banks are going down with it.
Banks recklessly loaned dangote billions of dollars tied to that refinery.
If that refinery crash and we continue to import fuel, the naira is crashing with it.
The fate of Nigerian economy is tied to the viability of that refinery. If that refinery fails, Nigerian economy will continue to suffer until another refinery comes up maybe in 5-7 yrs time.

Tinubu should lay aside his greed and selfishness, he should continue where previous govt stopped and ensure the refinery is completed.
The govt can buy out more stakes in the refinery or even make if public and bring in other investors to end Dangote's monopoly, BUT THAT REFINERY MUST WORK.

WAITING FOR ANOTHER REFINERY TO COME ON BOARD IS NOT AN ALTERNATIVE. NIGERIA HAS WAITED TOO LONG FOR THIS REFINERY AND NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO START QUESTIONING MONOPOLISTIC TENDENCIES OF DANGOTE.
IT'S TOO LATE FOR THAT NOW.

She is right actually.. from the records, over 85% of concessions and waivers granted by the FG went to Dangote alone. So imagine the undue advantage he has over others.

Then this issue of predatory pricing needs to be tackled head-on by PBAT's administration. Why is Dangote selling cement cheaper in other neighboring countries but selling at a price way higher than imported cement in Nigeria?
The Dangote man is one of the people Nigerians should be protesting against so his brain will reset and he'll start doing things the right way, but no, our people are after misplaced priorities.

Someone put together his resources and built something and you want to wake up and claim 30% ownership from where to where? What the Niger Delta can claim is ownership of the crude oil not someone's refinery when in fact, the young man so far does not even get his crude oil from Nigeria. You might as well go to the Indians and others we ship crude to to ask for 30% there. Lazy, barren mind!

Do you think Dangote can fork out his money and invest such amount in Nigeria. Buhari regime and Emefele build that refinery .that's why there is problem today

we cannot generate electricity

we do not have a national carrier
we cannot even construct safe roads --yet we have rich ministers ,legislators ,senators ,governors and an even richer president

I would support a man who creates jobs for his people.

Those ministers complaining are crooks.
