Folks like u hate scrutiny of facts;that's why salt bathing is soothing for u. Dangote group. The largest conglomerate in W/Africa has 12,000k workers including manufacturing and managerial. So for Naija to have created 1.5m jobs in manufacturing, it means Naija produced 150 Dangotes in a year and they all built conglomerates as big as Dangotes.

Don't just argue, because you think, you have something to say. More than 90% of companies in this country don't use public power.

According to him, the captive power of 15,000mw is sufficient for the private companies to operate.

It is cynic folks like you who believe the fable that says over 70% of Nigerians live below $2 a day. Common sense should tell you that Nigeria with a population of over 160 million, with a large demography of able and agile youths with high unemployment numbers is capable of generating thousands of SMEs, which in turn will employ people both directly and indirectly . . .

You should weep at your warped myopic thoughts that only the "Dangotes" can stimulate jobs in the local populace.

Shame on you for your self hating myopia . . . . .

OtunbaJega: My opinion:

1) The figure was inflated
2) Manufacturing jobs = Factory workers... Chinese, indian and lebanese companies come to mind.. Unskilled labour, No workers compensation, No job security, long working hours (including night shift and overtime), low wages, hazardous workplace conditions.... That one na job?
3) Can they also tell us how many jobs were lost due to epileptic power supply, corruption and poor economic policies

yeye dey smell....

VENTURES AFRICA – The manufacturing sector is now the major driver of economic growth in Nigeria, the latest economic report by Renaissance Capital, reveals.

According to the report, with Nigeria’s rebased Gross Domestic Product,(GDP) the manufacturing sector is currently growing faster than the telecommunications, oil and gas and agricultural sectors.

The report, titled, “Nigeria’s GDP: Bigger but slower – Manufacturing is the engine of growth,” was released on Monday.

The report further strengthens recent figures by the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria, which showed that there was an increase in manufacturing capacity utilisation from 46.3 per cent recorded in the first half of 2013 to 52.7 per cent in the 2nd half of 2013.

Notably, the Rencap report stated that the manufacturing sector recorded 22 per cent growth in 2013, as against the 14 per cent it recorded in 2012, noting that the growth was largely driven by the textile, cement and food sub-sectors, among others.

The growth recorded by the manufacturing sector within the period under review, it said, accounted for one third of the total growth in the economy.

The report said, “Manufacturing is growing strongly, despite power deficit. The manufacturing sector is a much bigger, faster-growing sector under the new series (nine per cent of GDP as against the four per cent previously). In 2013, it recorded substantial growth of 22 per cent (as against 14 per cent in 2012), comprising one-third of total growth. Food, beverage and tobacco producers account for half of the manufacturing sector. The sub-sector’s growth accelerated to 12 per cent in 2013, against 7 per cent in 2012.

“An analysis of the growth drivers shows that telecoms is a maturing and slower-growing sector. The growth sectors are manufacturing (particularly food, cement and textile producers) and real estate.”

The report further revealed that the cement sub-sector, which accounts for about one per cent of the country’s GDP, recorded phenomenal growth in 2013, as it posted a 39 per cent growth as against the 14 per cent recorded in 2012.

It stated, “Several of the smaller manufacturing sub-sectors are growing even faster than food producers. Cement, which only comprises one per cent of GDP, grew by a sizeable 39 per cent in 2013, up from a strong 14 per cent in 2012.

“Nigeria’s large population of upwardly mobile consumers, particularly in the south-west, coupled with investments in power, implies the strong growth of manufacturers, including food producers and breweries, is sustainable.”

Conversely, the report revealed that in 2013, the oil and gas sector experienced a decline in growth as the sector contracted by 13 per cent, while trade and real estate sectors overtook agricultural and financial services to emerge as the top three growth drivers of the Nigerian economy.

“The trade and real estate sectors trumped agriculture and financial services in 2013, to become among the top three growth drivers, together with manufacturing. The decline in agriculture’s growth contribution in 2013 was partly due to the 3Q12 floods. The upside is a smaller agriculture sector (23 per cent, as against 36 per cent) that reduces the economy’s exposure to it,” the Rencap report said.

According to analysts, the level of capacity utilisation in the manufacturing sector is an index of the health of the sector. When it is low, it indicates poor growth and vice-versa. The Rencap report therefore reflects the improving health of the Nigerian manufacturing sector just as the rising capacity utilisation has shown.

Manufacturers in Nigeria had attributed the remarkable increase recorded in capacity utilisation within the last year to favourable government policies, especially with respect to industry, trade and investment.

Olusegun Aganga,the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, reacting on the new research findings, said the analyses, done by the reputed Renaissance Capital, corroborated the fact that the manufacturing sector was being transformed under the Transformation Agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.

“It is a good thing that the manufacturing sector is breathing well under this administration. Figures are there as proof. All we need do now is further improve the situation through consistency in policy as we continue to work hard towards continuously improving Nigeria’s non-oil revenue,” Aganga noted.

For example, it is estimated that SMEs account for 70% of Ghana’s gross domestic product (GDP) and 92% of its businesses.(2) They also make up 91% of formalised businesses in South Africa (3) and 70% of the manufacturing sector in Nigeria.(

A very daft statement cos we already have millions of SMEs thriving already. It is no longer news that business owners are known to cater for their own power needs to meet their production quota.

Quit your blatant idiocy . .Let us view Dangote number of jobs created in his cement industry alone . . . .

Labour Vanguard’s investigation revealed that Dangote’s three cement plants in Obajana, Kogi state; Gboko , Benue state and Ibese, Ogun state, have generated no fewer than 60,000, jobs and have contributed to easing the job crisis in the country.

According to findings, Obajana employs over 10, 000 direct jobs, Gboko has over 4000 direct employees, while over 7000 direct workers are currently working at Ibese.

Labour Vanguard gathered that for every direct worker, especially drivers of the company’s trucks, there are two indirect workers or assistants.

A source at the Lagos Corporate Headquartres of the Dangote group, explained that “if both the direct and indirect employees are put together, Obajana will have no fewer than 30,000 workers, Gboko about 15,000 and Ibese with the same number. These exclude petty traders, food sellers, distributors, contractors and so on.”

Jobs creation

Giving detail of the jobs generated by the cement plants especially the Ibese Plant, Alhaji Dangote, said the commissioning of the plant was historic because “it is a watershed event that will see Nigeria transit from being the world’s number one importing nation, to self-sufficiency, and net exporter of cement. Dangote Cement Ibese is a modern plant with an installed capacity of 6 million metric tonnes of cement per annum and currently ranks as the largest cement plant in sub-Saharan Africa.

Nigeria created 1.3 mil jobs in 2013 according govt officials like Iweala, Okukpe, SGF. So manufacturing cannot account for more than national figure, which includes manufacturing.
