‘Dangote Refinery Will Create 300,000 Jobs’ - Chief Operating Officer, Mr Alake by Nobody: 5:20pm On Sep 26, 2016
The Dangote Industries Limited $17 billion refinery project will create over 300,000 direct and indirect jobs by the first quarter of 2019, the Chief Operating Officer, Mr Olakunle Alake, has said.

Alake on Monday said that the refinery, petrochemicals and fertiliser plants were in one location.

He said the project would be the single largest stream in the world.

He said, “The refinery and fertiliser projects will create job opportunities for the communities and Nigerians when it becomes operational.

“The refinery will have a refining capacity of about 650,000 barrels of crude a day.”

Alake said the project would force down the price of Premium Motor Spirit in the country and save money spent on importation.

He said that projects such as these would optimise government revenue and wean Nigeria from relying solely on oil.

He said that the best way to diversify Nigeria’s economy is through agriculture and the fertiliser plant is in line with that goal.

The chief operating officer said that the 98 per cent of basic engineering on the fertiliser plant had been executed, while the construction had progressed by 30 per cent.

He said, “By the time we finish our gas pipeline it will be able to generate about 12,000mw which can be exported to other African countries.

“We will have the capacity to store four billion litres of products and load 2,680 trucks per day.

“The project will aid the country with about 7.5 billion dollars forex savings on importation.

“It will also generate five billion dollars forex earnings from savings and another 5.5 billion dollars export earnings.”

Alake gave assurance that there would be markets for the refined products, saying that only three countries in Africa had effective and functional refineries, while others imported.

Alake said the projects would help the country save five billion dollars on oil importation when it became operational in 2019.

He said, “By the time we complete this project, there will be opportunity to take on agriculture and say bye to poverty because there will be jobs; no sector has more job potential than agriculture.

“Though the project is an ambitious one but when completed it will give Nigeria a new economic direction in its quest for economic diversification.’’

He said excess products would be exported to give Nigeria the much needed foreign exchange.

He said, “That is when diversification starts.”

Alake said, however, that access to foreign exchange posed serious challenges to the projects.

He said, “We aim to complete the projects within the time frame to assist in easing the forex problem.

“We appeal to the Federal Government to support these private initiatives by providing funding for the projects.

“However, government through the Bank of Industry schemes has given us a credit facility of N50 billion to develop the fertiliser plant.

“We have also gotten another N75 billion approval for the refinery, which we have not yet accessed.”

I want the Naira to be sane again, I want the country out of resession. Generally, I want to buy indomine for #60 again, but selling our biggest assets is an unnecessary and extreme gamble.

Nothing is cast in stone bro.

Dangote suggested that some of our National assests be sold, he did not directly say that he would be buying the NLNG

By the time Dangote gets through with his Coal Mines in Kogi and the Gas project for his Oil refinery in Lagos, the Power/Energy sector of Nigeria might be firmlly in his grip

No! They can put heads together, invent a time travel machine and teleport to 2019.

It's not a pure water factory they are talking about here.

Alternatively, they can gather themselves up to about 300,000 and go volunteer as labourers to assist the speedy completion of the refinery before next week Tuesday.

The creation of 300k jobs is a welcomed development, am against the sale of NLNG cos it is valued at more than $15billion, but someone suggested it should be sold for $1b which I think is criminal, besides is NLNG the only national asset we have?? what about the Ajaokuta steel company that is lying waste isnt it a FG asset.

By the time this man stylishly buys NLNG, Dangote would be the only man drilling and refining crude oil in Nigeria. Just like cement, sugar and others.

An igbo business man once proposed to buy a particular building from his landlord so he could chase away his major contenders in the building after gaining control.
His landlord being smart told him any time he proposed that suggestion again would be his quit notice.
And he never did that again.
I don't like greedy capitalists.
