In fact the prices of these items for dangote's product should be reduced instead.

I and my employees have been out of business since February so dangote can access forex and just when the CBN announced devaluation he has increased price.

Someone should please tell me dangote's sugar and flour are not part of this increment. Is that even a possibility cause he seems to have monopoly over these items at present.
Just to enlighten you.

It is Dangote refinery that is only allowed to secure forex at CBN and not Dangote Sugar and Flour. Note the difference.

All the same, that the said forex collected by his refinery can be diverted to other areas is highly possible. That is a matter for another day.

I believe the importance of Dangote's refinery to the economy will be greater than yours that's why Government/CBN favours it above other companies (They don't have a choice. Dangote is a smart and shrewd businessman).

"A breadseller" not "breadseller", you should add "a". Your "don't" is supposed to be "didn't". Its also "Orang-utan" not "Orangutan" Please go and learn English, this is a public place.

Buhari Backs CBN Flexible Forex Policy, Says It’s Down Payment for Success
June 14, 2016


The flexible foreign exchange policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria got a presidential nod again yesterday as President Muhammadu Buhari said it would help the country’s economy, which had been badly hit by a slump in oil revenues.

“The central bank has moved to introduce a greater flexibility in our exchange rate policy. These actions are a down payment on our people’s ability to succeed,” Buhari said in an essay he published on the website of The Wall Street Journal. (See back page for full text)


Although the President did not give details of the policy, he explained that Nigeria needed it to boost its supplies of foreign exchange, adding that the country would need to radically increase its exports and productivity as well as improve the investment climate and ease of doing business.

The president’s essay could raise more anxiety about the details of the policy that Thisday reported yesterday might be unveiled this week. The paper had said its informed analysts believed the details might be released this Friday, being the day the CBN receives bids from authorised forex dealers.

Meanwhile, the CBN last week sold $131,323,071.09 to 11 commercial banks and three merchant banks, the returns of forex utilisation published by the respective financial institutions have shown..

However, dollar purchases by Dangote Flour Mills – $2,444,843; Dangote Sugar Refinery -$1,555,156.62; and IATA -$1,500,000; which were UBA’s biggest customers during the week under review, buoyed its performance in forex returns.



Guaranty Trust Bank Plc (GTbank) held the fourth position with a total of $13,119,712.75, just as Zenith Bank Plc with a total forex allocation of $13,110,393.04 came in fifth. Zenith Bank sold the greenback to a total of 496 customers. Also, Zenith Bank’s biggest customers in the week under review was the Dangote Group (Dangote Agro Sacks Limited, Dangote Flour Mills and Dangote Sugar Refinery Plc), which purchased a total of $2,000,000 from the bank

*Modified*


Of 496 customers to share 13M in Zenith Bank, Dangote got 2M for his flour and sugar.

Of 788 customers to share 14M FirstBank, Dangote got 2M for his cement.

Dangote Flour Mills also got $2,444,843, Dangote Sugar Refinery -$1,555,156.62 from UBA.

And yet we are experiencing increase in prices of sugar and flour when these are just from this week and at official rate of 199 or 197.

So where is this increment coming from?

ONCE,
A VERY GOOD CHRISTIAN QUOTED THAT..

"MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT COMES FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD".

IN THE PAST FEW CENTURIES CHRISTIANS HAVE BEEN REASONABLE ENOUGH, TO "SUBCONSCIOUSLY" IGNORE THE EXISTENCE OF SUCH STATEMENT. .. SO AS TO NOT STARVE TO DEATH FOR RELIGION'S FREAKING SAKE!




HAPPY SUNDAY!

That "alone" in that quote shows the importance of "bread" (which means physical food), rather than otherwise.

At least, it shows that man must live by "bread", but not by bread alone.

Dangote has sold majority of his shares in Dangote flour to Tiger brands of South Africa.

So effectively, Dangote no longer owns Dangote flour and that means your theory is rubbish!

Bread is not difficult to bake. It can be made at home - fresh! As long as you have your oven and the basic ingredients.

Majority (63.35%) of shares sold in 2012 and re-acquired Feb 2016.

All forex acquired so far were done under the name Dangote and not tiger branded consumer goods (TBCG).

Get your facts straight young man before coming online to showcase your "fullness".

I wonder how what I wrote is a theory not to mention it being rubbish.
