The most wicked soul in Nigeria is Dangote. Apart from opening his ass for little girls, what else is he doing with his money? Richest man in Africa for donkey years now and all of those years his region has been the most poorest and wretched region on earth. Stingy goat! 3 Likes |

The cement monopoly company must be having the intention of drastically reduce building of modern houses in some segments of Nigeria, given the sudden meteoric hike in cement prices in Nigeria. They have achieved their aim. 2 Likes |

BIGNAME2020: Is Dangote the Governor or government of Northern Nigeria? That’s why Nigeria is a s/hole - the same people who idolized FAILED politicians will denigrate successful private citizens. FYI, the Dangote Foundation (endowed with US41.2 billion) has supported poor people, particularly widows and IDPs throughout the North. It has built FREE housing and given FREE grants to the poorest Northerners, especially women. It has awarded hundreds of scholarships, built schools, built the Business School at Bayero University in Kano, and students’ housing at Ahmadu Bello University in Kaduna. Meanwhile, Dangote’s businesses employing thousands of Northerners (as well as other Nigerians) include Africa BIGGEST tomato paste processing plant in Kano, Savannah Sugar in Numan (Adamawa State), and Nigeria’s biggest sugar cane plantation, together with a mill and refinery complex (under construction) in Nassarawa State. How we wish more Nigerians would be as “wicked” as Dangote! SMH > 3 Likes 1 Share |

The motion to cut cement price is good. But what`s most importort is moving the motion to halt insecurity all over this country and to curb some forms of injustice in the society. |

9jaRealist:I hope you're getting paid for this ridiculous propaganda, as I'd hate to think anybody could be slow-witted enough to believe the inanities you've written. How does the fact that a monopolist like Dangote throws back a few crumbs in the name of "good works" excuse his mercilessly squeezing 200 million of the poorest people on the planet to add to his USD $10 billion fortune? Only a paid shill or someone with "special educational requirements" would attempt to launder this gigantic criminality by pointing to the "good" things Dangote has done with a tiny portion of the money he's stolen from every single Nigerian over the last 40 years. You might as well say mafia bosses are "good" men because they squeeze in the occasional act of local charity in between their busy routines of murder, drug-pushing, fraud and extortion. The only difference between a Dangote and a Don Corleone is that Dangote managed to get an entire nation's government to give legal backing to his organized criminality. Politicians who truly cared about improving the lot of ordinary Nigerians wouldn't waste time talking about "incentivising" local producers by creating new subsidies that would only generate new avenues for corruption. Instead they'd be agitating for the outright abolition of all import restrictions and special tariffs on cement, so that any Nigerian wanting to build a house could enjoy the fruits of international competition. Cement is by its nature a low-tech, commodity product, so even the usual "infant industry" type arguments protectionists love can't be applied here - Nigeria gains nothing by having it produced at higher cost locally. 3 Likes 1 Share |

9jaRealist: The tomatoes paste and Sugar factories you mentioned above has revealed who you are. You're one of the newly recruited Dangote Media Crew to defend his greediness. Didn't you know how cheap tomatoe paste were before he came and monopolized it and made the prize skyrocketed to whatever amount he want? Same thing he want to do with sugar market which is why he has been fighting BUA. Truth is he knows what is coming for him from the poor masses that is why he recruited people like you to keep defending him. It's a matter of time. W'll rise! Dangote Media Crew. Welldon 3 Likes |

UnabashedIPOB: They were run into the ground by POOR government management.... Nonetheless, Ewekoro still exists. It is owned by Lafarge (used to be Blue Circle UK, before Lafarge acquired Blue Circle), which is the world’s BIGGEST AND MOST POWERFUL producer of cement. The irony was that despite the fact that Lafarge has been in Nigeria since the 1950s/60s (as well other major multinational cement producers like Holcim, Scancem, Heidelberg, etc.), before most of us were even born, it was until indigenous Nigerian producers like Dangote and BUA built world-class plants that Lafarge decided to rehabilitate and modernize its decrepit and polluting Ewekoro and Shagamu plants, and it was still bagging imported cement and producing/dumping low-quality 32.R-graded cement until Dangote and BUA came on the scene with locally-produced 42.R-grade cement (Dangote is the FIRST, and likely remains the ONLY producer, in Africa of 52.5R-grade cement, the highest quality globally). Bendel Cement was acquired by BUA Group under the Obasanjo privatization program, and has since been retrofitted and modernized, and a brand new plant added, and is now producing about 6 million tons/year (more than 10x its production under government management and ownership). Sokoto Cement was also acquired by BUA Group under the privatization program, and repeated the same modernized production upgrade feature as it did in Edo State. Calabar Cement Co., which was moribund and not producing, was acquired by Flour Mills under the same privatization program, and together with Holcim built a state-of-the-art new plant in Cross River State, and again has geometrically increased production levels and capacity. Similarly, when BCC Gboko was acquired by Dangote Cement under the same Obasanjo privatization program, it was moribund and NOT producing any cement. After so much objection by rent-seeking Benue politicians, Dangote Cement turned around the plant, increasing its capacity TEN-FOLD from 400K tons/year to 4 million tons/year, built a power plant (which supplies electricity to the local community and LGA), roads, clinic and housing. Meanwhile, Ebonyi politicians also engaged in a long fight against Ibeto Group’s acquisition of Nkalagu Cement Co., until relatively recently, and since then the Ibeto Group has awarded contracts to Sinoma for a total rebuild and modernization of the Nkalagu plant (as well as a second new plant nearby). The entry of indigenous Nigerian producers like BUA and Dangote has helped transform Nigeria from the world’s second-largest importer of cement (only second to the US) to an EXPORTER of cement, saving billions of dollars previously spent on importation, earning millions of dollars from exports, and CREATING TENS OF THOUSANDS OF JOBS IN NIGERIA FOR NIGERIANS! Only people who celebrate failure and denigrate success would want Nigeria to return to the old regime of poorly run government-owned cement companies, and massive imports. SMH > 1 Like |
