Stop using other moniker to reply yourself. Go face your future and dream of becoming somebody in life, rather than have sleepless nights on your own lies . As of today Dangote is worth $18.1 billion Dollars.

Dangote is given special privileges by the Nigerian government, and allowed to monopolize key industries. We DEMAND that he complete these projects. He owes us a functional refinery after all the profit he makes from Nigerians.

Chai, no go kill yourself over this DANGOTE REFINERY. Since you are mandating him to complete the project, why don't you approach him to say these things you just spewed here? Na Kirikiri Maximum prison you go find yourself. grin grin grin

Provide evidence that the refinery is not a scam. I want this project to succeed more than you do because it is the only hope of Nigeria escaping stagnation and developing an industrial economy. However, Dangote doesn't seem to be serious about the project. I've been following this project since 2016 -- every year, Dangote says the refinery will be complete. But there is always an excuse.

First he delayed it because of flooding. Next it was inability to access steel. Now, it is coronavirus, etc. Something is fishy. And we should be demanding answers instead of acting like children. I don't know why Nigerians must behave like dumb monkeys; always suffering and smiling and defending the indefensible. Wetin you dey lose if I pressure Dangote to stop lying to the public and make good on his promises?

If you ask me, I think he is using the project as an excuse to obtain forex at the CBD rate and engage in mass importation of fuel. That is why he has built so many tank farms but no real refinery.
so unfortunate you lack sense. Have you seen any vessels bringing fuel there or tankers taking fuel from ibeju lekki area. The internet sadly allows many stupid people to type ctap

I never said he is using the refinery site to import fuel. He is using the forex to import fuel. This is the same thing he does with sugar. The CBN gives him access to forex to produce sugar from his farms, but he uses most of the forex to import sugar and makes excuses why the farms aren't working. Rabiu is engaged in the same business.

For every 1 ton of sugar they produce, they are importing 99 tones.

Dangote's 650,000 BPD oil refinery is a scam of epic proportions. Every year Dangote extends the completion date. First, he said it would be complete in 2016, then he extended it to 2018 -- now, he is saying 2021. But in reality, the project will never be completed. The project is already abandoned. There have been no workers or serious construction activity for several years.

The news media is using pictures of Dangote's moribund fertilizer plant and saying that is the core refinery. Na lie. I have obtained recent drone footage of the real refinery. Here is conclusive evidence that the project isn't even 10% complete.

Compare the pathetic state of the Dangote refinery to the functional Jamnagar refinery in India.

ya, for real tho. a friend of mine who is an expat told me about the lie being propagated by dangote. he said d place can only function at 25% capacity. what a sham job. d rich keeps exploiting us.

Dangote must have assumed that Oil refinery is similar to cement plants, which are easy to complete since they have few processes to finish line.

Running a modular refinery should have been easier for him.

He doesn't know what he put hand into. And he wanted BIG SCALE as usual.

Stop saying that Dangote is lying.

Doing business in Nigeria is difficult.

The way you are presenting your facts makes it seem that you are hating on him. Your facts may be right. And Dangote does not owe you any explanation. A refinery is not a cement plant, maybe he never envisioned the challenges he is passing through today over the project.

Are his excuses not genuine?

For businesses to thrive, there must be an enabling environment... Sadly we can't say so of the Nigerian environment. I think Dangote didn't do enough feasibility studies concerning the project though.

Notice how Dangote has constructed so many tank farms and his own port? He is using the refinery as a cover for mass importation of petroleum into Nigeria.


Which one is 'a cover for mass importation'?

this is the reality. Any private person importing now will do so at a loss and no cash subsidy. So makes no sense to import

That Indian refinery is currently the largest in the whole world.
I'm not sure Dangote's is even the 10th largest.
That Dangote refinery has been politicized
Re: Dangote Refinery Is A Scam: Project Isn't 10% Complete by stagger: 3:29pm On Dec 24, 2020
I have long suspected that project as a means of getting forex from CBN at concessionary rates, for onward resale at the parallel market. There have to be many people in on this rubbish.
