The lebanis are great archievers wherever they go.
Most of these foreigners that are lording over you would be homeless in their own country. That's why they came to Africa -- there is no competition.

Lebanese are idiots. Their country is in shambles. Nigerians are just so stupid that rejects from the middle east can dominate your country.

But a Nigerian came up with the idea of banana island. Stop feeling inferior to people with paler skin than you.
I'm not inferior. YOU are. If Nigeria was full of people like me, it would be the most developed place on earth.

Wonder why Nigeria is so primitive and slow to develop? Because it is full of Nigerians. Here is an image of Banana island. The colorful skyscrapers are on the part that was developed by Lebanese. The rest of it went to Nigerian developers. See the difference?

The Lebanese built these towers almost 10 years ago. And since then, the Nigerians haven't erected anything taller than 3 stories.

calling your fellow anti Western Nigerian ass-holes to come and share their one sided views on a win win investment for Lagos and lagosians as a whole.
I am in 100% support of the refinery, at whatever cost.

Repeat the bolded to yourself aloud.

Do you know what fractionation means? Have you seen the gases released? You want to compare that to gasoline fumes? Even a beer refinery/brewery, what does it do? Now, imagine it's hydrocarbons being refined in there.

In the next 1—15 fifteen years, repeat that bolded aloud again.

The only thing of interest in his refinery will be the process involved. Good luck to anyone living around it. Dangite won't be the one living there.
Nigeria is not burning normal petrol. It is the dirtiest petrol on earth with 152 times the EU limit for sulfur and possibly other heavy metals like lead. Those of us living abroad can smell the contamination in the air when we set foot in Nigeria.

LAGOSIANS IS REFINERY GOOD OR BAD FOR YOU SINCE IT IS LOCATED IN LAGOS?

Why do I ask is because in my own opinion what is happening in oi rich areas might happen in lagos thing like air pollution land pollution especially oil spill which will reduce the value of land in those area .I don't think people will be able to go to the beach to relax anymore!you see we should be thinking of the future and not" I wan chop am now now" mentality and that is why I say is it GOOD OR BAD SHARE YOUR OPINION
Dangote chose the perfect location for his refinery because Lagos is the only functional state government in Nigeria. He had originally planned to locate in it Oyo, but the fools over there frustrated him. By choosing the Lekki free trade zone, he doesn't have to worry about the land use problems that face other parts of the country.

In terms of safety and pollution, refineries are only dangerous to people living within a 30 mile radius, and Dangote's site is roughly 40 miles away from mainland Lagos. Obviously, the people who live in Lekki will face much more risk. But it can't be much more dangerous than their dirty gasoline fumes you inhale every day. Dangote's refinery will also be made to a Euro V standard which will minimize some of the health risks.

Obviously, even with this, a project like this would never be allowed in a modern country. But welcome to Nigeria.

The white man via the CIA assassinated Gen Murtala Muhammed who would have exploited all the resources of Nigeria and built genuine industries, including marble, which would have made the importation of same unnecessary.
Ok, but did the white man force those politicians to buy marble from him? Yes or no?

Did he force them to pay $100,000 (big money in 1998) for a job that should have cost $25,000?

Nahh......It demonstrates that the devil is very good at presenting himself as an angel of light.
Did the white man force those Northern politicians to buy marble from him instead of developing their own?
