Passionnn:. Though I must agree that Dangote is one of the major problems we have in this country, but this your claim is fallacious. conduct a similar search for other countries and the results will show the billionaire of each country being listed as the owner of that country. In the case for China, where Jack Ma will be shown as the owner of China. 4 Likes |

MASTERCHIEF0847: Been reading your comment, and seeing the response. The reason why they abuse you is simple. The average Nigerian wants every businessman to sell him or her cheap products. Meanwhile, he or she won't be doing that for their business, and when you confront them, them go say that it is their right to set their prices..lol. 1 Like |

We need to allow competitors from outside come in to compete in this space. We're at the mercy of fellow Nigerians who call to be local but thirst for foreign status. |

BluntCrazeMan: IN addtion to the answers given 1. There aren't many cement manufacturers in the country, and if more people (not just one, several more) are licensed to manufacture cement, there may be more cement in the country, and thus prices come down 2. Government is spending more on concrete roads, and then there are the planned mass housing projects...meaning a lot more cement gets mopped up, not too much in the market. Above two are summarized from a Punch article from feb 11 1 Like |

Reliably,Dangote stopped selling cement last week. And the news sent in shock wave across board and some people used the opportunity to hike price. Nigeria is funny. |

BluntCrazeMan:..the cause is the high costs of fuel, disel due to the removal of fuel subsidy, the dollars exchange rate rising everyday..1500 naira to a dollar...due to floating of the naira which makes the dollars to keep on rising and make the naira to lose value...this causes the costs of production of the cements to be high and the high costs of transporting the cement to the market....due to high costs of fuel and disel |

MASTERCHIEF0847: Baba, you've NOT answered the question. OP is wondering why the cost of a nation's natural resource is this expensive to even its local market. So you're telling me the cost of excavation and logistics is the major driving force behind skyrocketing prices? 🙄 Even to local markets?

Are u justifying the increase in price that is triple within the space of 3-4 wks? Is dollar triple within the space of 3-4 weeks the production and maintainance rate triple suddenly between January and now? Was Government policies that affect price made now? Cost of diesel triple between January and now ? Just asking question |
Re: Why Exactly Is The Cement Price Going Up This Way? by Majesty7: 12:30pm On Feb 17 |
Flier: So, the neighbouring market demand is higher than the Nigerian market? Are the cement producers not selling outside the Nigerian market before? When we talk about policies, we mean, the policy not favourable tlfor cement startup. Do you think Bua, Dangote and Lafarge are the only cement manufacturers? No! The policy is not favourable. Your idea, regarding selling outside thereby increasing demand is completely false. Cement demand not that high that should make the product scarce. You even mean dealers and not producers |

MASTERCHIEF0847:shhh all these are silly excuses. One is one of the major factor of production in that sector is diesel and we haven't seen a major sharp increase lately. You people deserve what is happening, running to give excuse for every silly increase just to say I no tell una? Nigeria is for everybody I won't derive joy from it pain. We produce garri here for years then all of a sudden the price keep jumping astronomically you will tell me it because of dollars. Nigeria is the only country were the rules of both basic and complex theory of economy don't hold. I know of someone who imports a hp laptop for 120k when dollar was 460k 2 years ago and he is still bringing same laptop for same price today when dollar is 150 because price depreciate over there as time goes on but when that laptops gets here people do sell for 270k infact as them year say dollar increase, they automatically increase their old stock. We are just too wicked as a people. 1 Like 1 Share |

MASTERCHIEF0847: You spoke as someone who has the knowledge in cement production. I guess u work there or you have someone who works there. Another factor u did not mention is the scarcity of the product as a result of reduction in production capacities by the cement manufacturing companies which also contributed in pushing the price up within a short period, but I believe Government can do something to bring the price down. 1 Like |

nairalanda1:Exactly Competition! Give the so-called monopoly a run for their money 💰 It is what gave birth to companies like Ford and Google, crashing the whole price down, make it available to more people. See Alonso stepping up to take over from the present generation of coaches. Look at Jugen Klopp acknowledgement of this fact. |
