Rossikk:


I actually read a credible international report which stated that the mere existence of Dangote refinery positions Nigeria as an INDUSTRIALISED COUNTRY TODAY.

Because it makes Nigeria the biggest manufacturer and exporter of refined petroleum products and petrochemicals in Africa.

I will see if I can find the report.

Rossikk:
This country will shake the world.

In fact we're already shaking the world.

But more to come.

See how Dangote Refinery is making the whole world tremble, especially Europe.

What will they say when we now complete our 35 billion dollar gas pipeline that is heading straight to Europe as we speak?

That will end Russia's status as the monopoly supplier to Europe, and triple our annual income.

We better go and start adding nuclear capability to our military.

Because I don't think Putin is finding all these moves by Nigeria funny at all.

I'm sure he's sitting somewhere laughing and saying ''see small nyash dey shake''.

But we go show am say Naija no dey carry last.

santaclaws:
The world is waiting for Nigeria.... I can imagine how glorious this country would be when fully industrialized....

Imagine a Nigeria with several export auto makers, mass wear production, booming tourism industry and a solid manufacturing and agro sector... nobody would be able to stand this great nation.

May God help the right people get to the right offices in politics and governance...

Adakintroy:
People don't understand how Lagos is about to explode.

Refinery set to take off in lag.

Plus president is from west.

Zwooks:



Good. Because the nation will not terminate hundreds of crude contracts to please Dangote


Two, the nation is a bigger entity than Dangote and he can't dictate the pace and policy direction of the country. He has been doing it forever. This is where it stops


Three, refineries all over the world buy crude from so many sources. Dangote is free to go to Libya, Algeria, Malta, Iran to source his crude but the nation will no longer be subservient to him

Zwooks:



Your statement lacks substance. Dangote refinery is a private project not a national one. He should do like other business men and seek their raw materials elsewhere

deenee:


He is already buying from other sources. Also y'all shouldn't expect him to sell fuel cheaper to you......QED

Believeintruth:


Most people are just sentimental and naive. They really don't get your point. South Korea hosts one of the largest refineries in the world and they source theor crude all over the world, Korea has no proven reserves of crude and the same with Singapore they have one of the largest refineries in the world and they have no crude. Again most people fail to realise that refineries of the scale of dangote in size are not designed to refine one particular grade of crude. Nigerian crude is known as sweet crude as it is sulfur free in content, but has low paraffin content, and as a result is suitable for production of PMS, AGO and Kerosene/Aviation fuel, but produces a low output for petrochemicals. It is Heavier crude blends like US Brent, North Sea, Arabian and Venezuelan crude that are suitable for petrochemical production.
That being said I support your view that Dangote should in addition to sourcing for Nigerian crude, he can source crude anywhere as well, he should hold the country hostage because of that.

adabaraabdul:
what is the rationale behind your thoughts? If it is because you have a personal beef with dangote, then I can understand. But I will like you to factor in the benefits Nigerians would get from dangote taking his stock from Nigeria, it means cheaper crude which results to cheaper fuel and that is what we need right now in Nigeria. Cheaper energy or let's say less expensive energy material will drop down inflation and also reduce the pressure on FX. I think what is better for all of us is more than what is good for your selfish interest, EGO.

alphaNomega:
you see why I said no one should expect cheap fuel from Dangote refinery? he will definitely buy his crude at international price and sell to Nigerians, or whoever wants to buy at whatever makes profit. Dangote crude oil refineries is not a charity.

i pity reading the posts of those who had hopes of cheap fuel when the refinery is completed and running. it is that time you will see thread upon thread and content from financial analysts and economic juggernauts telling you why you must buy fuel at 3 times the market cost

I'm sure he's sitting somewhere laughing and saying ''see small nyash dey shake''. The gas we will supply will still be more expensive considering the distance. Secondly it will triple the amount of money being looted cos u and I know that the common man won't benefit from it.

But we go show am say Naija no dey carry last.

Dangote should source his feedstock anywhere he so pleases and leave the country alone. Also, the refinery wasn't constructed to consume the nations crude. It was constructed because Dangote wanted to explore the industry. Nigeria must not be made an estate of Dangote

Zwooks:




Dangote wants the entire petroleum industry in his back pocket the same way he pocketed CBN and has used his quota system brothers to empty the nation of its foreign exchange. Nigerians are like you said quitessentially simply naive and sentimental


Dangote refinery is a private investment and not a national project

to be fair, at 1914, they had little to no choice our real men were eliminated by the invading forces and the greedy ones took over, aligned with the foreigners and collectively ripped us a new hole

Nigeria Is Turning Into an Oil Market Juggernaut

Wat dangote is doing now is wat nigeria should have done 4o to 50yrs ago we should have been a G5 Nation by now..with excess cash a high standard of living and virtually eliminating poverty.. some some men decided to steal our common resources and stash in Switzerland Bank acct some men decided to steal...if u look at it now u realise those men were fools what's one person gain compared to what hundreds of million of Nigerian will gain look at Kuwait with the strongest currency in the world. This is pure witchcraft.
