I am very much in agreement with you. The technology and the engineering of all these equipments are not rocket science, but we kept on given out our real job to the Indian and Chinese. I think we are totally not on the path of development, if none of the total man hour requirements on the Engineering of all this whole facility cannot be accounted by Nigerian.

I would have loved the fabrication to be done in Nigeria, and at least 30% of the Engineering also allocated to Nigerian as well.

Even, I am very sure, during the operation stage of this facility, they will have to be bringing in expert for maintenance, and Nigerian will just be recruited as mere checkers of control system.

It is really saddened how we reached this stage as a nation. If this kind of huge project is going on in Nigeria, and Nigerians cannot even bost of 1% of man hour during the FEED stage, maybe 3% during EPC, and Operation might be like say 20%. With this statistic, we need to start asking important question.

nobody has the capacity to fabricate such size in Nigeria

No! That's because Nigerians don't build nonsense. Thank you.

stop talking about what you know nothing of.....even the USA import equipment from China....they have the best engineers in the world and that doesn't mean we the one in Nigeria are useless..... only Germany and China have engineering knowledge of producing D's type of equipment.
Russians first.. Including amphibious equipments they come first..

I am happy that a private sector is doing what our " so called government" was supposed to do

If only a prominent Nigerian out there can take up the power sector as dangote has done to the power sector ( by then we will see the Nigeria of our dreams close to us ! )

Thanks for agreeing with me even if it's from the rear. But those things you mentioned were not initially built as nonsense even if they eventually appeared so. But, the thought of building nonsense from the scratch; I mean you are aware this is nonsense and still want to build it, is what I just said Nigerians don't build.
Thank you.

still coming from the rear... They were nonsense hence the solomon Grande life span... Not because they can't do better I must confess but the human greed factor has made all their projects come out as nonsense to honest minds... Don't thank me.. Just be just..

This belongs to Dangote and Dangote doesn't appear to have ever been troubled by the business environment in Nigeria.

9jantatainment:


Are you for real? How can you say "No traffic". When was the last time you visited that corridor, words cant express the hardship people face on that ibeju epe road now, no thanks to the heavy duty trucks working at the refinery. To now think that this mighty equipment will be moved to the refinery using that same road in its current dilapidated state, it is my prayer that it does not fall off its conveyor between the epe jetty and eleko juction because of the massive potholes on the road. How i wish i have pictures to share for you to see what motorists go through on that road on a daily basis. Most if not all equipment to be used at the refinery passed through that same road so i do not think your position on the usage of the FTZ and not Epe jetty enroute Apapa port is right, besides there arent much equipment at the FTZ port to facilitate the disembarkment of such equipment from the barge that brought it.

I honestly think that in a saner clime, a more comprehensive EIA should have been carried out to address issues bordering around transportation of heavy duty equipment and materials using the existing road and how it affects the environment and other road users. The hardship on that corridor for the past some months can only be imagined. A journey that should not take more than 30 mins now takes about 9-10 hours. Must we die because we want to be self-sufficient in fuel production?

You don't live in that axis. If you blame the project for 9-10hours traffic.
Have you honestly seen and read the projects EIA you referred to?
Previous equipment arrival and transportation didn't fall of conveyor belt and all those things you typed. Even with the potholes.
I won't mind if you do source the photos and share

I heard they plan to do test runs from ending of this year to the first quarter of 2020. Then start full production second quarter.
That would be great.

And we cannot do the Engineering as well. I really don't know what NETCO is doing all these while, they have not develop to generating big order for Greenfield Engineering projects, it's really bad for this country. We cannot generate jobs for the masses , if we failed to develop Technology

I'm impressed.

Thank God he is focusing on the product the country has comparative advantage in.

Shame he is still demanding that government bans the importation of refined fuels. That's just plain wrong as he would have monopolistic and risk free profits.

A ban is therefore unnecessary but rather import duty of 5% should suffice.

Open your eyes Dangote thrives in a monopolistic economy..Aided by the Government,they all have their share.Nigeia wealth is in their hands
