modath: I'm from ogun state. And i know much about the ibese road. I also have friends that works at Dangote cement. The road was in mess before he fixed it. He even created alternative road without a penny from the government. I'm very sure of this. Just like oyedepo wanted to fix the otta road. But for some reason the government is not letting him. Hence they grade the road and fill loop holes every Saturday. 1 Like |

The monopoly is back again. So with 30% the federal govt goes after competitors to pay full 100%. Making it easy for dangote to sell 30% less and kill their business. How much will the road cost, how much will the cash value of the tax be? What are the details of this action ? We know most looted funds from major politicians is invested in the group. I prefer we know the cost of fixing the road, let the people pay a token to use the road and we know how much we have paid and how much is left. All these shady agreements without details is the same as corruption. You take decision on behalf of Nigerians without giving them details. This is how those who have looted Nigerians funds that have favour with govt will take advantage of the current economic situation and make us permanent slaves to their generation. 9 Likes |

Re: FEC Approves Tax Incentives For Dangote by Chinom(m): 8:45pm On May 18, 2016 |
A misplaced priority and a reckless abuse of 'Tax incentives'. I'm not against giving Dangote or anybody tax incentives, but it should be given for investments in petroleum refineries and electricity generation and transmission. Not for Dangote to use his own surplus product to build one single road. 1 Like 1 Share |

Dangote Dangote.....Hmmmm. Just today on Channels TV, a man (the chairman Sapele Chamber of Commerce) blew open how Alh Dang has been robbing the national coffers, with help from stupid persons in govt, all in the name of duty free waivers, sole right to importation and multi billion dollars loan assistance. I'm even thinking there's a connection btw his new tomato paste factory and the recent scarcity of Tomatoes Above all, he's one lucky man |

modath:he was recently rated as most powerful man in the country ahead of Mr. President, I don't think that was a fallacy. Unfortunately he's a capitalist & a monopolist, that's not the kind of person you'd want to have all that money & power. This is just a tip of the iceberg compared to when the refinery is completed. It's left for our govt to protect us. |

ADEMOSU: Million likes. I don't know why Nigerians always go gaga once indigenous company is mentioned. It is the duty of government to provide infrastructure as incentive for industrial development. Like one poster up there said, let his trucks even uproot the roads, it is government duty to put it back in order. How many roads have government forced the depot owners to reconstruct just because their tankers passed on them? If Dangote had not put up the cement factories in Nigeria, we would have been importing. Will the cement be flown into hinterland from the ports? What government has done now is to collect at least 30% of tax for many years in advance from Dangote on the future profits that he has not yet made. If he had got pioneer status like all these foreign telecoms companies that came to Nigeria, he would have been entitled to tax-free profit for at least 4 years. Nobody shouted about MTN, Etisalat and even Glo when they got that. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: FEC Approves Tax Incentives For Dangote by Ibime(m): 8:57pm On May 18, 2016 |
modath: It is not the job of private business to maintain infrastructure regardless of use. They pay taxes which entitles them to use infrastructure to carry out their business. Govt benefits in so many ways such as taxes, employment and personal income taxes of the company employees. It is Govt job to ensure that infrastructure is in place to attract private businesses 3 Likes |

Why can't they borrow money from dangote and pay him back with tax incentives Asking dangote to construct the road for tax incentives is almost same with the Chinese loan where the fg will use the loan to purchase ftom xhina!! So if the road isn't worth morr than 1billion and dangote decide to announce it as 10billion isn't this bad? |
Re: FEC Approves Tax Incentives For Dangote by modath(f): 9:01pm On May 18, 2016 |
twinskenny: Which year are we talking? & bear in mind that "bad" road in Nigeria is relative... Deen77 It's called social responsibility, it's global best practice, we are used to so little that just a little more feels like so much more!! Dangote made a trillion naira profit and only paid 12bn as tax, which translates to 1%! Where else does that happen but this banana republic? BTW, he is getting CBN forex for his Congo cement factory, does that sound like it's ok to you? I still maintain, fixing that road is his responsibility!! omolola15, If he fixed Ibeshe road without a penny, why not Obajana? |

modath:My dear ur analysis so on point! For years this man evaded tax and just because he couldn't achieve that with pmb on board, he decided to do this. I ask this, what about his csr obligations to the host community? After getting almost everything free in this useless country and couldn't fix ordinary 43km of road. This country is seriously doomed and that's one more reason I question the need for the so called billionaires we keep blindly celebrating in this country. See the other one that called himself otedola and aluko just reaping the foolish country of its wealth without anything to show for it. How much did they sell African petrol to otedola? Peanut and he quickly renamed it forte oil, why couldn't he take cue from adenuga, at least he stands out among them, he built glo from scratch, conoil and equatorial trust bank. Such entrepreneurs I respect not thieves like otedola, dangote and co hell bent on suckling this economy dry 6 Likes 1 Share |
