Guys,
Procter & Gamble is a private and multinational company, there is nothing like abandoning the project.
If you care to know, the project is no longer a plan, the contract has been awarded to Julius Berger and recruitment of staffs has already begun.

Bros, it's a MNC that's embarking on the project not your FG. FYI they have one just as big in Ibadan. In fact we should be thankful that a coy as respectable, profitable and gigantic as P&G has decided despite the humongous and avoidable challenges to take Nigeria as it's base of operations in West Africa. I for one know that they run their Ibadan plant strictly on Caterpillar Gen sets - I mean we are talking humongous diesel costs here.

Look at this bloody product of a failed education system!

They open their mouth and vomit their stewpid opinion without any ratiocination.

Mugu, explain to me why you think it is the textile industry they (whoever they is) should revive?

Who is responsible for power? Ogun state government? P&G?

Since when did building a FMCG manufacturing plant equate is the same as building a textile or power company.

@topic

Being a manufacturing hub and an annex for Lagos is the strategy I have been advocating Ogun state follows but the mugu we have as governor was talking about agriculture.

Omugor is lucky that the right strategy is emerging by accident.

I hope they employ Nigerians not foreigners.

And its good to publicize such moves to prove to doubters that Nigeria may be tough but it is certainly viable. And it will only get better as infrastructure improves then the bus of investment will have left leaving the fickle fingers saying how did P&G do it. How did they become a monopoly. Maybe they play party politics. We have seen them aplenty.

Investors will look for a place that is not tough but is still viable.

Infrstructure is unlikely to improve (at least at low cost) if you have cretins like Retardeed Jonathan as president that celebrates corruption and refuses to prosecute corrupt people like Oil Subsidy and Halliburton. Officials will know funds for infrastructure is free to be stolen and even if anything is built it would be at exorbitant cost and the intent to recoup the funds will mean higher fees for users.

That's a good one.

Imagine the number of people that would be employed during the construction phase alone.

Great news for the SW, and Nigeria in general.
