Honestly human beings cannot be satisfied more to an African Nigerian, the Chinese are investing heavily in Nigeria infrastructure, we are say they mortgaging our sovereignty to China, now our own very Dangote is doing his best for our country instead of being grateful we want to start smear campaign against him. chatinent: 2 Likes |

You are quite naive with some of your assertions. I have worked in the downstream sector of the petroleum industry. Most of what you refer to as landing costs are usually inflated and all independent marketers have a common understanding regarding this. The scenario you paint of other countries looking for Nigerian naira to trade for our petroleum products is laughable. When that time comes, you will discover that it is the gatekeepers (those in charge of implementing said policy) that will insist on other forms of currency. You seem to discard precedence, the cement industry being a very good example of how localised production does not translate to lower prices. My problem with the average Nigerians is how we fawn at and are fixated upon projects such as a refinery - 20th century engineering development. So you are claiming that this refinery will bail the entire country out of years upon years of its collective stupidity and gross incompetence. We probably need 10 refineries of this particular size that not only guarantee our energy needs but also help our balance of trade and our currency. To the best of my knowledge, only BUA and Dangote are building refineries of such a capacity, others are smaller in size and do not make a huge impact upon overall demand. Last I checked, Dangote was a capitalist not a socialist, you really think he will sell petroleum products for less when he can sell for more Is his cement business not the best of indicators of what he will do when said refinery starts working Nigerians so love a fairytale ending when in reality it is never so simple. One thing you are removing from this overall equation is the human element. Humans through collusion can cause even the most foolproof systems to fail. And Nigerians have shown consistently that they do not want development. On the surface, it appears to be a good plan but in a country such as Nigeria, who knows what tomorrow holds.

IDnoble1: Mostly overhead costs due to poor infrastructure. When we start transporting cement by rail for instance, you can expect prices to fall. Same with stable power supply that will drive down costs and also reflect in cheaper prices. |

kayjay69: What a display of grand ignorance. So you claim to be in the downstream sector, even with the nerve to label someone naive, yet are totally ignorant, clueless and blank of the fact that Nigeria's daily demand is 442,000 bpd, while Dangotes refining capacity is 650,000 bpd meaning he not only can satisfy our national petroleum needs, but even has enough left for exports, so I wonder what planet you pulled your 10 refineries theory from. If to the best of your knowledge (your words), you're aware of only 2 private refineries in Nigeria, then it truly shows the perimeters and boundaries of that knowledge. Excerpts from the IMF.

QuotaSystem: Well said!!! But again it is a capitalist system and the monopoly he is going to enjoy for the time being could drive the price. Ideally, we should have a cheaper product from him but nothing seems sensible in the country. Look at rice, the government banned importation of it to expand and encourage local productions. What do we have now with the price of rice?? We need price gauging control system. 2 Likes |

surgical: As opposed to the “cheap” fuel are you currently getting from the other (government) refineries...oh wait, there’s none! Even though I would doubt it because landing costs will be eliminated, if nonetheless Dangote decides to sell it for N200/liter (ie, less than 50 cents), it’s because that’s what the market rates should be and that’s why he remains in business while the government refineries lost N154 billion in 2018 (according to the NNPC’s last published audited financial statements) while producing almost ZERO refined fuel products. The problem with most Nigerians is that they are deluded into thinking they are getting (and are even entitled as a birthright to) “cheap” fuel, but everything has a COST (one way or another). Accordingly, the trillions of Naira that the federal government spends to keep imported fuel “cheap” in Nigeria is BIGGER than the budgets for each of education, healthcare, public/affordable housing agriculture, etc. Meanwhile, the stark irony of the dumb “cheap” fuel policy is that pricing of the products that most affect ordinary Nigerians are all DEREGULATED - kerosene used as household fuel, diesel used for long haul transportation (including of foods and goods), and aviation fuel. Meanwhile, the BIGGEST owners of ordinary cars in Nigeria are the federal and state governments. In effect, they’re subsidizing themselves! > 1 Like 1 Share |

seunmsg: Subsidy hasn't been removed. There is, and always has been a subsidy. The only time subsidy was removed...is in 2015, when government raised fuel prices from N87 to N145, when landing costs was N132. That meant that government no longer paid a 'subsidy'...till the landing cost rose above N150, when subsidy payments were resumed, till it became unsuistainable again...hence the price icnrease to N162 So long as the price of fuel is set by NNPC, there is a subsidy . However, allowing Dangote to fix prices as he wants should never be allowed. There must still be a price fixing regulation in place. The downstream sector is too critical to be allowed to exist without government regulation. Dangote refinery will be a monopoly once it start production so government must ensure at all times that consumers are protected. And at the end of the day you will 1.Drive off investors in new refineries since they can no longer make profits refining and selling fuel. Fact...of the ten new refineries coming up, most of them are not refining petrol because petrol is still subject to price fixing. It is the same reason why most private entities licensed to refine pterol in Nigeria cannot refine petrol because it isn't going to be profitable under a price fixing regimen. 2.Make it difficult for NNPC to repair and upgrade existing refineries, and if they manage to find the cash to upgrade and repair existing refineries, to keep them in good shape over time since they cannot make a profit to do so..plus they cannot make a profit to even build new refineries. Infact, the main reason why we have bad refineries is because for years, NNPC hasn't been able to run its refineries profitably. As a result, all the refineries failed over time. Plus, price fixing is not very good economics. Would you accept government fixing your price if you ran your business....? Would you.?You would be running at a loss...and engaging in sharp practices like selling on the black market , engineering scarcities of the goods you sell, and smuggling to keep afloat. 3.And price fixing entails paying subsides . Otherwise, the whole downstream sector is going to run at a very very serious loss...and subsides payment can only cover so much...plus it isn't sustainable. |

9jaRealist: Subsides haven't been removed. Right now, landing costs for fuel are above N180 per liter. Pump price cost is N162 per liter. The government pays the difference...a subsidy If there was no subsidy, then we would have been paying N300 or more for fuel...since government would no longer be controlling the price...leaving marketers free to pay for importing fuel...with dollars they source for themselves...not the current arrangement where NNPC improts, sells to depots at a reduced price...and bears subsidy costs from its pocket...rendering it difficult for them to pay for things like ...repairing refineries. 1 Like |
