How will that be done.

I guess you never built a house nor own a business

You need cement and you need diesel - too many small businesses rely on men like Dangote and Otedola.





There are other cements in the market. Lafarge, BUA, and the likes. The problem is that most dealerships already sell dangote cement. If dealerships can buy more of the others, the sales from dangote would drop. No doubt about the fact that we cannot completely boycott dangote cement but one thing is sure and that's the fact that we can reduce our patronage of his products. When it comes to his consumable goods like pasta and the likes, there are more than enough alternatives to choose from. Again, a 100% boycott cannot be achieved but we can reduce our patronage of his products. Same goes for forte oil. If you can afford to fill up your tank elsewhere other than at forte oil stations, we can do something.

Boycotting their products doesn't mean we would be able to do that 100%. It just means we have to try as much as possible to avoid patronizing them and this would surely impact on their sales.

My questions are, why didn't Aliko and Otedola openly support GEJ in 2015 despite being their benefactor? Why are they doing it now having also benefited under PMB's regime? There's more to their coming out than meets the eye.

People have forgotten that the same Dangote and Otedola donated billions to the campaign fund of PDP few years back. They are Nigerians and free to associate with any party of their choice.

Otedola, in recent time, sold forte oil out to invest in petroleum refining.
As glaring as it is, Dangote is in the forefront of petroleum refining buiness in Nigeria. Who knows what the APC led govt has promised them?
Wish them luck and fruitful investment.

One thing you are forgetting is the level of demand there is for Dangote’s products.

And the sophistication of his dealership network - Dangote is an African/SE Asian phenomenon- this is a man that has built plants in other African countries and some SE Asian countries

Rather than preach a boycott you should be aiming to be like him.

Politics aside - we need more people like Dangote that would bring a good name to our country.

His political affiliations should never be a bone of contention.

In the next few years, Dangote’s refinery would come on stream - a massive investment that would finally put an end to our importation of petrol - a shameful practice.

By the way, Otedola is selling most of his shares in forte oil

dangote and otedola were chosen because of their financial capabilty...so when apc start spending looted money...Nigerians and EFCC will think tge richest business men in Africa donated the money.[my own point ofview though]




btw...why is a sitting candidate this desperate on re-election?
if truly they've given Nigeria the needed CHANGE they preached,why not let the masses be the judge with their votes and not stress themselves with campaign and others

Nigerians can only make mouths on Twitter.
In reality, they will still hail Dangote and Otedola all because of money.

PDP started the wooing of Otedola in Lagos only for APC to beat them at their own game. Whoever knows the number of APC scouting manager should please help me with it. The person is a good signing manager that can help Man United and Chelsea get a better striker than Lukaku and Morata.

APC has a good strategist but they are very wicked when it comes to governance. If only they can be this strategic when it comes to ruling the nation Nigeria would have been better off.

Lesson learnt from this move: Never make your strategies known by your opponent if you want to survive in the game.
They were the first to woo omisore too before they were given bloody nose in Osun. The fact is that PDP are bunch of expired and unsellable individuals. They are not useful to the nation.

Dangote and Otedola will be better of with the pro-market and pro-business policies of Atiku/Obi

They would at least try to remove the oil subsidy and fully deregulate the sector unlike Buhari who would keep the subsidy and expect these 2 tycoons to play along with the hubris

It will be hypocritical for them to play along but I won't blame! They may suffer repercussions if they don't play along

Remember Obasanjo library and donations?

don't mind him. You will boycott a product that is useful to you because of senseless hatred. If dangote or otedola gives him a job or money, will he turn it down. You have dangote cement maybe close to where you are building but because of hatred you will abandon it and go about looking or another brand of cement. You are low on fuel and the closest filling station to you is forte oil but will leave forte oil because of hatred and go about looking for a filling station farther. Some people are not just serious.

Empty barrels and their loud noises. That's the only thing most of them are good at; form savage kings and queens on Twitter.

Ask most of them if they have their PVC's and they'll tell you 'No'. Even the ones that have, they'll most likely tell you they can't stand all that stress of standing for hours just to cast their votes. If the election goes against their online wishes, they'll come back online to rant.

The question is: who do you think will vote out Buhari for you? Ghosts?!

A business man like dangote swaying into partisan politics and opening himself up to potential enemies.

And to think many of his businesses are in pdp states.

The law of diminishing return has set in.

Dangote has stupidly demystified himself. Wonder if they threatened him one way or the other.
Never expected him to be openly partisan. The backlash may not be worth it, few years later.

He’s not partisan Dangote and Otedola always support whichever government is in power until they fail or power changes. If u remember they supported Jonathan and he still lost. It’s a normal political gesture.

I don't have intentions of being like dangote. I have dreams and visions of being a successful business man. I built my current business from the scratch with no single penny coming from anybody. It's being a story of success from baby steps into having a thriving business that did not fold up under this incompetent regime(despite the fact that some people I know in my line of business are out of business).

Dangote has a right to support whoever he wants and Nigerians have a right to boycott his products and patronize other brands. Nothing is cast in stone.
