Tinubu is the only Nigerian President in recent history who not only has no childhood picture, nobody alive or dead went to primary school or secondary school with him

He even managed to pass out of secondary school 4 years before the secondary school was created 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

Emmanuel Addeh in Abuja


Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest person and the President of the Dangote Group, owners of the new 650,000 barrels per day crude oil refinery in Lagos, yesterday argued that the decision by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) to reduce its stake in the facility from 20 per cent to 7.2 per cent was a huge mistake.

Speaking during a Bloomberg Television interview in New York, monitored by THISDAY, Dangote further disclosed that although he has two oil blocks which are set to begin production in October, he will likely not invest heavily in Nigeria’s upstream sector.

Besides, the billionaire businessman noted that the NNPC has pledged to supply the refinery 390,000 bpd barrels in October, stressing that the expected settlement of transactions in Naira would reduce pressure on the local currency by as much as 40 per cent.

But on the reduction of its interest in the refinery, the NNPC had defended the decision, stressing that it planned to invest more in cleaner energy sources like Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).

Dangote stated that there was no room for further negotiation on the matter, pointing out that although it was a good deal, the NNPC bungled it.

“We gave them (NNPC) a good deal. We said, okay, fine, we structured an agreement. The first agreement was that they were going to pay us a billion dollars. The deal was about $2.79 billion. And then the balance of the money, $1 billion, which they paid us over a year and a half ago, and then the balance of the money was split into two.

“One portion was that every crude they supply to us, 300,000 barrels per day, we’ll deduct $2 and then up to the time they finish paying that, one third. The other one third will come out of their own profit. So, why NNPC opted out is a little bit confusing.

“They wanted this agreement to be changed where they wanted to pay cash, not in any other way. So, we said, okay, fine. We signed another agreement, you know, cancelling the other one. The new agreement that we signed was for them to pay us after one year, no interest, after one year, they’ll pay us the balance of $1.8 billion.

“The month for them to pay was June. And by June they came back to us and said, no, they’ve changed their minds and they want to remain at 7.2 per cent. So, okay, fine. So, we left it and we own now the rest of the shares, they own 7.2 per cent. And that’s what it is. But I think they made a big mistake.

“But no, there’s no negotiation. The agreement is finished, dead, completed. It’s 7.2 per cent,” he stated.

Dangote stressed that 90 per cent of the world did not really give the refinery the chance to survive, noting that he felt satisfied personally for the progress made so far.

He explained that the company already had loans of about $2.4 billion while the refinery was still trying to get a suitable location because of the complex issues involved, reiterating that everything was built from the scratch.

On recent calls for him to invest in the upstream segment so as not to be held hostage by oil producers, Dangote stated that although he has two oil blocks that will begin production this October, he doesn’t intend to invest heavily in that segment.

“Well, our upstream, you know, is not big. We have two oil blocks which we have and we are starting production this October,” Dangote added.

Dangote affirmed that it remains the sole decision of the federal government to end a decades-long subsidy on fuel, but noted that in the coming days the government will come up with a robust agreement with the refinery on how to move on with product supply, going forward.

“Subsidy is a very sensitive issue. Once you are subsidising something then people will bloat the price and then government will end up paying what they are not supposed to be paying,” the tycoon said. “Removal of subsidy is totally dependent on the government, not on us,” he stressed.

With the recent directive by President Bola Tinubu to NNPC to sell crude oil in naira and for Dangote refinery to sell petrol in the local currency, Dangote stated that the naira will soon begin to stabilise.

“Petroleum products consume about 40 per cent of our foreign exchange,” Dangote said, adding that fuel from his refinery, which started supplying petrol on September 15 to the state-owned oil company for domestic sale, “can actually stabilise the naira.”

According to him, with the commencement of petrol refining in Nigeria, the real consumption of the product, which he characterised as ‘guesswork’ will soon be unravelled.

“We are going to actually put a tracker on them (trucks) to be sure they are going to take the oil within Nigeria. And that, I think, can help the government save quite a lot of money,” he added.

He stated that negotiations were still on with government on pricing, expressing confidence in the ability of the minister of finance and the Federal Inland Revenue (FIRS) boss, Zaach Adedeji to thrash out all pending issues.

He noted that from October the NNPC will supply about 12 million barrels, broken down into 390,000 barrels per day.

“Already we have agreed, like, for example, in October, they (NNPC) are going to give us 12 million barrels, which is averagely about 390,000 barrels a day, which we’ll refine. We’ll sell both gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel, and if there’s any excess, we’ll export,” he observed.

Dangote insisted that the recent price announced by the NNPC that it was getting the product from the refinery was wrong.

“It wasn’t really a disagreement, per se. NNPC bought from us this particular one on the 15th of September at the international price, which they also bought over 800,000 metric tons of gasoline, imported.

“So the one that they bought from us actually is cheaper than the one they are importing. And so when they announced our price, the guy (NNPC spokesman), I don’t know whether he was authorised or not, but it wasn’t really the real price.

“ What they have announced, yes, most likely that is what it cost them, including profit, including whatever, but they have never added profit to their cost. But their own imported one is almost, maybe about 15 per cent to 20 per cent more expensive than ours,” he said.

He also insisted that the much publicised ‘raid’ on his office sometime ago was meant to embarrass the company, even though it cooperated with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) all through.

“They visited the office and they didn’t talk to anybody. They did not arrest anybody. They just came and, you know, and left just to register an embarrassment and that’s all,” he stressed.

On his erstwhile plan to buy Arsenal football club, Dangote said that while he was eager at the time , the plan would have delayed the completion of the $20 billion refinery.

“I think that time has passed. That time, Arsenal wasn’t doing well. I think, you know, I don’t have that kind of excess liquidity to go and buy a club for $4 billion, so to speak, and use it as a promotional something. I’d rather do something with the money.

“ I will continue to be the biggest fan of Arsenal. I watch their games every day. Any time that they are playing, I will watch. So I will remain a major supporter of Arsenal, but I don’t think it makes sense today to buy Arsenal.

“Actually, I regret not buying it before, but my money was more needed in completing my project than buying Arsenal. I would have bought it for $2 billion, but I wouldn’t have been able to finish my project,” he said.

Yes! Wicked people returned to God who sent them to their final abode.

Remember, you agreed that wicked PEOPLE SPIRIT ALSO RETURNED TO GOD.

So, what did God do with their SPIRIT?

This is Job 27:3 "As long as my breath is within me And spirit from God is in my nostrils" - NWT

Where did Job talk about baby in the womb?

I've educate you enough about the condition of the baby in the womb, you're too ignorant of what is happening in the womb.

We will finish last, but ladies and Gentlemen, my boy, Samuel Chibuikem Osuji aka Sooj, has made it as a BBNaija Finalist.

We went from 8% Nd almost evicted to Finalist. He's going to finish dead last like my boy before him, Cross, but at least Biggie will have words for him on that last day. Congrats to him.


Best of luck to those whose boys will not make it.

This is a proof that you don't even check verses i often cited well i can understand because you feel you are too big to learn from Jehovah's Witnesses.
So it's time to LEARN!

“Son of man, I have appointed you as a watchman to the house of Israel; and when you hear a word from my mouth, you must warn them from me. When I say to someone wicked, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him, and you fail to speak in order to warn the wicked one to turn from his wicked course so that he may stay alive, he will die for his error because he is wicked, but I will ask his blood back from you. But if you warn someone wicked and he does not turn back from his wickedness and from his wicked course, he will die for his error, but you will certainly save your own life" Ezekiel 3:17-19

God told Ezekiel that he should PREACH what he heard from God to the Israelites, those who listened and acted on what they heard will be saved but if Ezekiel failed to preach those people will perish but their blood God will ask from Ezekiel.

In harmony with what God told Ezekiel Apostle Paul told Timothy:

"Pay constant attention to yourself and to your teaching. Persevere in these things, for by doing this you will save both yourself and those who listen to you." 1Timothy 4:16

Timothy must preach and teach the Gospel to save himself and those who listened to him.

WHY?

Because the only service that makes us disciples of Christ Jesus is the WORK he assigned to us:

"Go, therefore, and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things" Matthew 28:19-20

Jesus will deny whoever refuses to do this work because it's only those doing it that Jesus will be with not those shouting his name:

“Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of the heavens, but only the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. Many will say to me in that day: ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works in your name?’  And then I will declare to them: ‘I never knew you! Get away from me, you workers of lawlessness" Matthew 7:21-23

This is in harmony with God's will according to Ezekiel 3:17-19 which i quoted above whoever hears the Gospel but fails to tell others is not doing God's will! Revelations 22:17

You can see that you don't even know anything about the way to salvation {Isaiah 35:8} yet you want to condemn God's people who are zealously doing God's will!

Despite, AJ is greater and richer than all sportsmen from biafra combined, both dead and living.

CAPTIVATOR:

Cool! I ask that because you said this

" Yes! A dead person doesn't have SPIRIT because that is what goes to heaven to give account. "
Safe to say Wicked persons also go to Heaven when they die ? Yes or No. l

You said initially that

Contrary to your nonsense above, Job 27:3 Equated our been given spirit with Adam. There is presence of Spirit in our nostrils too. Which means without spirit, LIFE DOESN'T EXIST! . For a Baby Job in the womb to be alive 🌞 , he must have Spirit. Since this spirit that signified presence of life in the Baby is a Person, do you admit it means a Spirit person from heaven was transfered to the mother's womb?

But why do many of your cousins, neighbours, family etc troop to Church every Sundays and others days, is it not also for the same Christ you say is not a success?

Your views are so carnal and myopic.

A man in South Korea has confessed to murdering his girlfriend and hiding her body in cement - 16 years after she was reported as missing.

The man, who is in his 50s, told local police he hit the woman with a blunt object during an argument at his apartment in the southern city of Geoje.

He then placed her dead body into a suitcase, which he buried under a layer of bricks and cement on his balcony.

It remained there unnoticed until last month, when a maintenance worker discovered it while drilling, local media reported.The body - which had been partially preserved by the suitcase - was identified as the missing woman's through fingerprint analysis. An autopsy revealed that she had died from blunt force trauma to the head.

The man, who police are calling Mr A, was not living in the apartment when the body was discovered but was quickly found and arrested.

He told police that he had been living with the woman for about five years in the studio apartment in Geoje, before an argument in October 2008 culminating in him hitting her with a blunt object.

He then buried the suitcase containing her body under a layer of bricks and cement on a small third-floor balcony, which could only be accessed from one of the bedrooms.

Police say he carried on living in the apartment for another eight years, before he was arrested on drugs charges in 2016.

Since then, the landlord of the apartment had left it empty, using it as storage space.

The woman - who was in her 30s at the time - was not reported missing by her family until three years after her death, the authorities said. They had reportedly lost touch with their daughter and - when they came to look for her in Geoje - were told she had broken up with Mr A and left the city.

It was only this year when the owner of the building ordered some waterproofing work that the 16-year mystery could be solved.

Police say they are continuing with their investigations and are expected to charge the man with murder.
