How can one person say that 200m Nigerians should meet him and him alone for fuel, the same mistake we made with food that caused the high cost is what dangote wants, he will inflate fuel price at will and expect everyone else to buy like that.

malali:


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.
Thats not business thats, Mafia/Cartel Vibes.......No one should treat an elected Government like that. Is he above the Government ?

Again bad belle people and pull down Syndrome.

With due respect I don’t think you understand the dire straits Nigeria is in. We should be begging Dangote to take crude.

We keep begging foreign investors to come and invest, with due respect no foreign investor is going to come and invest the sums Dangote has invested in Nigeria and this is how we treat his investment?

We are not serious people. Be under no illusion without Dangote’s refinery we are forked!! Nobody is saying Dangote the man is a saint but we need his refinery to be successful or we are forked!!!!

I really don’t think you people understand how existential this matter is to the future of Nigeria.

KingOfTheDamned:
But It's like the ibos aren't even interested in this protest? They aren't even talking about or trying to create awareness, even their Influencers are busy advertising goods instead of using their platform to talk about this protest
You all need to understand that What affects this nation affects all of us.
This attitude of ibos behaving a different nothing concerns us with Nigeria mentality is very wrong .

Nigeria has finally divided , and it is so unfortunate. This nation can't grow with this sort of division.

This is sad indeed

Causes by Ethnic profiling

Why is dangote scared of competition

Salewa97:


That’s because he is the largest employer of Labour.

Other people should invest massively too and the government will court them close like they are doing to Dangote

Largest employer of labour that government used to kill many small businesses and brought untold hardship on majority of nigerians. He bought almost all cement companies in Nigeria when it was sold for 750 and jacked up the to over 1500 overnight

Yes and tiefnubu came to rip where he did not saw...did that fake warehouse keeper cum economist know the meaning of waiver.

A pained ndi developer has just been spotted. You shall continue to cry tears. Your misery has only begun

When we needed cement the most. That was when he hiked the prices. Dey Play !!

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

She has a point. Unequal competition hurts smaller players. Needs to be a level playing field. For those considering a career shift, exploring how to start working from home could offer new opportunities.

The same way you begged him alone and his tyrannical cabals for cement and price jumped from 2500 to 4000 per bag because of equipment failure at his factory just three years ago. And more recently, he and his cronies triggered the price of bag of cement from 4500 to 10500 Naira per bag within a week. Full. Use your head. Whenever the industrial processes of any nation isn't liberalized, oligarchy is reinforced. Ode

4500 to 10500 per bag within a week. What nation on earth does such happen ?

malali:

Pettymindedness. He wasn’t and isn’t the only producer of cement. Cement is not as critical to the nations survival as his refinery.

Your argument is like a man who is dying and the only doctor who can save you beat you up in school so you refuse to let him operate on you. That’s your choice but the consequence of that choice is certain death.

Nigeria’s survival going forward is dependent on the success of the refinery….like it or not!

Dangote refinery fails and we will be worse than Sudan. That is no exaggeration.

Any attempt at strangulating the Dangote Refinery at this juncture would amount to cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.




Whatever Dangote might have gotten from previous istrations is immaterial given the immense benefits the refinery would attract to the overall rejuvenation of our lame economy.




Why throw away both the baby and the bathwater?



If the present government discovered infractions in Dangote's dealings/transactions with previous istrations, the best bet is to follow due process of dealing with the issue.



What Tinubu is presently doing to Dangote amounts to calling a dog a bad name so as to hang him.




#SaveDangoteRefinery!






@hotseat

APC ur..in don drop Aisha statement as a misdirection.

Don't be deceived by all this.

Probably Tinubu wants to take over the Refinery by force so he has made life difficult for Dangote.

As he did it in Lagos, he will do it in Nigeria

Mtscheww

Salewa97:
It’s even been long we last heard from the clueless Aisha

Very clueless, misleading her gullible followers on YouTube!

Biodun556:
Nigerians who ing Dangote don't know much about what he is asking for

Kindly share with me what he's asking for.

I only responded to highlight that your post why the majority of Nigerians with the financial means to do so, do not invest in Nigeria. We are a useless Evil wicked daft senseless bunch of people. Like Dangote said he was invest abroad by his friends....he didn’t listen. Do you think Dangote needs to money, fame, power or influence at this stage in his life?


I learnt years ago that Nigeria is not worth investing in if you have an alternative means of income abroad. It is the people you are investing for trying to create jobs and development that will eventually kill you ur business.

We are useless people. Your post shows it. Make your money and forget patriotism and giving back creating jobs or development. Nigeria is where it is for good reason. The people are useless,! If and when a time comes that Nigerians become serious, they will create their own jobs but if you say you want to create jobs and contribute to development they will bring down your business.

I dont know how old you are, Dangote bought all the textiles in Nigeria from the government.....guess what they all failed.
Grasping whats going on might not really be your forte.....No sovereign nation should hand over its energy to a single private owner's hands.
Especially in a country like Nigeria where oversight is in the pocket of the highest bidders.
We dont even have enough Crude oil to sell and maintain our budgets and service our debts.
Let him operate independently....He is a private business.
If he insists the government must sell him crude and buy petrol from him. Then he should be ready to open up his books a 100% and give government a stake as well.
If not sell to other countries.

malali:
When there is monopoly in government......We called it Military rule !!

When there is Monopoly in Business........We should call it out as well !!

90% Ownership of the Largest refinery in Africa to a single man is worse than military rule. Niger Delta should own at least 30% of Dangote refinery.

what has the Niger Delta done with the 13% derivation?

Salewa97:
Aisha, it’s not just about waivers. Dangote’s success has created jobs and boosted the economy in ways that can’t be overlooked. Instead of blaming GEJ, let’s focus on how to small businesses to thrive alongside big players. Competition is key!

At what cost?

I used to hear that Dangote is just a figure head and that politicians own major part of Dangote's Group of companies. If this speculation is true, where are the politicians and while are they not defending their investments?

You are very ignorant. Dangote bought the textile mills founded by Awo. It failed for the same reason all the textile mills in Nigeria failed, it failed for the same reason his tomato factory failed.....government liberisation policies and failure to protect local industry, cheap imports from the likes of Peter Obi. The jobs that Dangote would have created in Nigeria, Peter Obi exported abroad.

I have said it before that Dangote is no saint but you haven’t got a clue.

90% Ownership of the Largest refinery in Africa to a single man is worse than military rule. Niger Delta should own at least 30% of Dangote 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?

Kobojunkiee:
Na lie she talk? Obasanjo, Yar Adua, Jonathan, Buhari, and now Tinubu... all of them shared the bed with Dangote, and the man has not denied it.

Almost all comments on several post yesterday were blaming tinubu and government for not giving dangote the he needs to thrive... Even Peter obi advised that dangoted should be ed.... Now aisha is saying this... No matter what form of is giving.. Some fraction will stil see it as giving dangote a monopoly ground!!!

Okay

Bottom line, if Dangote is given all the crude oil he is asking for, he will run other oil companies out of business. As Dangote refinery is creating jobs, it is also rendering employees of other oil companies jobless.

God bless you. I believe there are still people who can see it for what it is. They think we are all stupid.
How can you give one man, the only thing that generates revenue for the whole country.

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

Kobojunkiee:
Because he is the largest employer of labor, other businesses should be disadvantaged for the sake of his venture and profit, none of which directly benefits much of Nigeria? Do you listen to yourselves at all?

Can you list other Businesses that is Small, that Dangote have invested and is destroying and disturbing people like you:
•Cement business, the Oil and Gas business,the Sugar business,the Salt Business,the Agriculture business - all na for Small Man,abi?
-Just tell Nigerians that you hate Dangote Success as a man,because he enjoys Govt backing,which people like you called Monopoly!
Also, tell us that the Millions of Jobs being Created,by Dangote ,is not good enough for Nigerians and that if you are in the Position of Dangote, you will do better!
