Rivers state again. Smh.
Rivers state is not that liberal in things like this.

Ibifiri Bobmanuel, thank you. In one of my previous posts, I have said, that an investor is not interested in investing in a place where the peace of his investment, will be threatened. When the youths and people of Rivers and other Niger Delta areas, were flexing muscles under the name of militancy and oil, we told them, but the couldn't listen.
When the Northerners were using religion and culture to scare away investors, we said,they never listened. With all the arable land in their possession,no serious investor is looking towards that end.
The people of South East, under the guise of agitation for Biafra, are causing lots insecurity, making investment their, very difficult for big time investors. In the next 10-20 yrs, these agitators, will see the negative effect it will have on the economy of South East.
The people of Lagos State and South West, should be careful, the way,the treat non- Indigenes and potential investors. International community and investors are watching. Dangote is neither a Lagosian, nor a South Westerner, but look at the massive investment in Lagos. When you threaten non- Indigenes, you are threatening investors, no matter the class, every investor,no matter the class, has its contribution to both the IGR and employment within the region or state.
Therefore, Leaders in the South West, especially Lagos State, should be careful in their dealings with potential investors. Learn a lesson from what is happening in other regions.
Oil is been produced from the South-South, but headquarters of the multinationals are here in Lagos.
Think and act wisely.

If we're being honest... That refinery is safer in Lagos.

South-south youths and elders are not yet ready to be serious in life!


...But, why did they abandon the older refineries?!! Why make the sector a monopoly in the hands of Dangote?!!

It's like you are drunk this morning. Read what you wrote please after the kai- kai clears from your eyes later in the evening.


BRIMBRAM:


"Asiwaju of Nigeria" was how Dangote kept calling Buhari's successor who the people of Rivers State massively voted for in the last election.

The people of Rivers State know how to chase you to either fortunes or misfortune. As for Dangote, he is fortunate and he has the people of Rivers State to also thank for their thoughtful action.

But as for Peter Obi who Dangote did not even mention just once, grin and who the people of Rivers State chased out of the race into Aso Rock with their votes. I want to say, Rivers State will continue to be a great blessing to Nigeria.

What do you know about Rivers State?

I keep saying that any Industrialist can locate his industry in anywhere he feels he can make profit with ease. However our government is not being sincere to the peculiar problems of the Niger Delta.

Have you ever pondered what the North or even the South West would say if a Gold Refinery or base metal refinery is sited in Port Harcourt, Yenegoa, Warri or Benin instead of the North West where these metals are mined.






Be truthful bro I know you have to stick your neck out there for your people but tell it as it is. Host communities aren’t always reasonable with their demands

You are out of line, is there any metal refinery in Osun, Kastina or elsewhere where gold are being mined in south west or north, are we saying we will not sell gold to buyer because they are not refining here? Were you not selling your crude oil before? Dangote May even choose not to buy crude oil from Nigeria, either he buy from us or not, he will pay for the crude oil wherever he’s getting his supplies from, you can also sell your crude to the highest bidder, this is business, don’t use emotional blackmail in business after chasing the man away with your demands.

Common driving around in this Port Harcourt is an issue. The way they will rush you in their numbers to demand for tickets upon tickets, you will think you have armed robbers chasing you. Before you know it, they will forcefully take your car keys, while you are still trying to find out your offence, one of them will enter your vehicle and zoom off, the others will then tell you to join them in their vehicle to their camp where they will drain your pocket.
Things to know even when your papers are complete, never wind down when you approach a slow traffic area, if they eventually stop you, don't clear off the road easily because that makes it easier for them, most importantly, never hand over all your papers to them, asked them which particular paper that team is checking, then check your papers and show it to them that you have it, if you hand it over to them, they will act like they are passing it over to others to check and before you know it, one is removed and you will be told that you don't have that particular one.

The corruption from the other side of the country is too too massive cos I no see the reason why a country cannot come together and stand a standard refinary to be functional for the sake of the masses but a single entity did it within a wake of 3 to 4years and and you said we are one Nigeria. I must say that some people just want the country to be one sided that's 2hy all these things are like this cos if it were an Easterner that built that refinary, the government and other bad belle will frustrate him not to complete it or better still, they will not give him the room to start it but look at a northern person single Handley did it without stress. We have a sharp long way to go for this country.
