That is a 2009 link I dont even know exist. I am talking about The Money Show on AIT by Nancy Iloh aired yesterday 14-01-2013. Dangote has started his thing and it isnt in conjuction with Kano state government. Except they provided him with land space. That I cant say and that is actually possible.

thelastPope:

Hahahahahahahahaha! There is nothing to prove. You can go on and throw your tantrums! Who cares?

tony_m1: LEADING BY EXAMPLE ... GOD BLESS HIM

fkaz:

What am asking is that is it GEJ or governor of kano state that dangote is runing partnership with?

Demdem:

Shut up lostpope and stop being untruthful. That link is dated March 2012. Are u insinuating that ur Nancy can't make mistakes or what?

Demdem:

Then the plant belongs to Dangote and not PPP with retardeen.

bigboss80s:
What's her twitter handle?

thelastPope:

Hahahahahaha! How can the plant belong to the FG? Was there anywhere in my post where I said such? You are making a foool of yourself. Carry go! Be my guest!

Demdem: Good one from Dangote if true. Typical business man. Sees an opportunity and key in into it. Just like any other newly private companies.
Kudos to Dangote again.

Demdem:

Lostpope, so u know it doesn't belong to FG or has nothing to do with them and yet u attacked me for not acknowledging the retardeen but dangote who happens to own the plant eh?
U are running mad ooo Lostpope. My post stands then.

ballabriggs: While losthope wants me to believe his Oga's theft of N7 trillion is not an issue, here is what Adesina says when he took over as agriculture minister in July 2011; "We inherited a corrupt and totally inefficient fertilizer sector, where the government was spending huge amounts of money on direct procurement and distribution of subsidised fertilizers but with less than 11 per cent of the farmers getting the input".


If the theft of fertilizer goes unchecked how do you raise output to meet demand for food in a developing economy? Ehn Reno Omokri aka losthope?

Corruption is a key issue in development as it distorts policy.

thelastPope:

You were the last person on my mind when I posted this, believe me! lol! Who cares what you believe? There are smart Nigerians reading this thread who are already calculating with their calculators and licking their fingers at the opportunities inherent in my post as we write! You have a false sense of importance! You delude yourself!

Waka pass joor!

thelastPope:

Farmers were given loans by the CBN and they have planted crops massively. They were even given fertilizers and other materials. They have already done one harvest and even lost produce due to lack of storage and evacuation facilities. Now, Dangote in support of the project, has come to their rescue and is building a processing plant right in their midst to shore up their harvest and harness it into tomato paste and more and you are talking of materialization? I dont understand your tears honestly. Express don leave you go oh! Wake up dude! You could take advantage of it some how if you only stop and think instead of just criticizing on NL or you can go back to the Tonto Dike thread you came from, lol!

thelastPope:

You are a typical example of "Internets trolls and twitter warlords who add no value to our collective lives"



Please go back and read the article again if you actually know how to read. am too lazy repost it!

Lostpope and what are u? an unrepentant sycophant

Demdem: Good one from Dangote if true. Typical business man. Sees an opportunity and key in into it. Just like any other newly private companies.
Kudos to Dangote again.

You talk about building 8 cargo airports and cooling facilities by govt. A those projects are touted all to siphon money. Where is Gbenga Daniels' cargo airport after 8 years Their cars were all over Lagos at one time. All these projects are conduit pipes of corruption. The existing airports have plenty of space, build warehouses close to them or give serious pple land to build warehouses and cold rooms there. Lets stop putting carts before the house. Let me give u a solid example of pple wt vision & who put the horse b4 d cart as shld be. There is an existing railway line in lagos. Awolowo, built an industrial estate around the railway line called Ikeja Ind estate and built 24 drying and bagging Dome warehouses beside the railway line so that Cocoa beans cld be taken by train directly to Apapa port rather than by road. When cocoa biz died 4 obvious reasons, Guinness Nig Plc used the Domes as storage but are no longer using all of them, so they are now bn used in mushroom fashion. These warehouses are on Oba Akran/Ladipo Oluwole in Ikeja.

The Minister of Agric has done well, but you will begin to see how he will be rubbished soon as d politicians have started seeing his ministry as a place they can come up wt spurios projects in the name of transformation. (10 million phones in the hands of rural farmers is 10 million votes for PDP as you must vote for me in appreciation of the phobne i gave you. Text message bombardment)

Nigeria needs surgery.

thelastPope:

I am only interested in seeing my country rise from the ashes. But most of you are all about partisan politics. One reason I will continue to defend GEJ is because I dont see fair criticism coming from you lot. I see a "bring him down because he is not our own" campaign. It isnt because every GEJ decision is correct. He is but a man and every of his actions or decisions cannot be right. Even Obama performed less than 40% in his first term and so far, I have not seen anything to impress me yet from him. But if we are to build Nigeria, it should be about issues, not personal fights based on political and tribal affiliations or personal vendetta. that is why I can never join the NL tribal nonsense. my 2 cents...

Walexz02: Well done dangote... U are the only farmer wey I knw to soji*
Baba & Co dey dia dey watch ur like mumu...

omenka:
The mounting apathy towards GEJ and his handlers has nothing whatsoever to do with his religion, ethnicity, zone of origin or race. It isn't about ''bringing him down because he is not our own''. Pple of all all shapes and shades criticize him just as they give him credits. But apparently, folks critical of his style of admin far outnumber those givin him praises.
That man is simply an oaf. It is one goof after the other with that dunce. A bottomless crater of failure! Show me a president who extols the 'virtues' of ex cons and I'll show u Nigeria's president.
Much as I don't like obj, u know what they say,: ur enemy's enemy is ur friend.
That he doesn't give a damn! We no blame am. No be him fault.

thelastPope:

I will address the above. I am not interested in your feelings of distrust as that will lead us no where.

The 8 cargo airports are not new airports but rather 8 existing airports have been earmarked as cargo airports. Today's documentary on AIT showed the warehouses and cold storage already being constructed as part of the airport renovation currently going on across the country. So get that straight.

I am totally against the 10 million phones project and I did say in my earlier post that the guest on the Money show gave both accolades and knocks to the FG on different issues and that was good. He did oppose the phone project.

I will not go into Dangote's issue. Business men are business men. they do business for profit and are always competitive and they all owe money, especially in advance countries like the US. so that is not an issue for me except they are caught in blatant corruption with evidence. So lets face the topic/. thanks

The reason i responded on Dangote is becos of this your comment in bracket (I have always been impressed by how this man, Dangote, has continued to invest in Nigeria despite all the talk of poor infrastructure and insecurity. He is probably the only truly patriotic Nigeria businessman out there today. If only we had like 10 Dangotes, Nigeria would have been transformed by now. ............... Imagine Danjuma made 500 million dollars from sale of his allocated oil block and shamelessly and disdanfully told Nigerians he didnt know what to do with the money! How about given out loans to small scale industries? The foool didnt even pay for the oil block) Dangote is no different. As Danjuma did not pay for the oil block allocated to him, so also Dangote for the economy hurting concessions that he has received over the years and you say u r impressed by him. Business and competition is not war that you bring a whole country to its knees. As we speak today, Dangote can cripple the Nigerian Stock Exchange & he is also NSE president. We need to put in place institutions that wont mortgage a nation to an individual or a group of individuals. Try it in civilised parts of the world and you end up in jail.

thelastPope:

Please Please Please!!! You seem an intelligent lad. Do not compare a man who lobbies government for advantage after he actually has built a good investment on the ground, with a man who was allocated an oil well that belongs to a whole region of people and worth well over 500 million dollars just for being there. Please dont do that! It is ridiculous to do that!

Dangote has been building his business empire for a long time and like most businessmen, he takes advantage of opportunities that abound around. Before he gained the so called monopoly you talk about, he has actually built his business to that point where he could take such advantage. Just like microsoft or apple. Danjuma on the other hand, is not even a business man. He didnt even explore the oil well. He just called in guys from abroad and sold the wells and pocketed 500 million dollars for doing nada! that was one of the greatest injustice this country has ever seen as far as I am concerned. Injustice to millions of Nigerians

Baba-Ibrahim:

How much did Dangote pay for this write up, I can see Nigerian business men now employ image makers on social network
