I am sorry, what? I listened to what Dangote in his interview who revealed that the products after the test at about 90ppm which does not meet the EU standard of 10ppm or the US standard of 15ppm. By the way, I stopped paying attention to the...what clearly is a... husband(FG/NMDPRA) and wife(Dangote) squabble, and have moved on since last night. So visit my previous comments for anything else you wish to know of my view.

SMH! The summary of the investigation so far shows that Dangote Diesel is of a higher quality by far as against the samples you guys have been importing into Nigeria. The tests and facts are out there. The NMDPRA did not see anything wrong with the rubbish diesel that they have been importing all these while into the country but can see that of Dangote. I dont think need to flog this dead horse discussion anymore. The NMDPRA Boss is up to something and you couldn't agree more. Instead of suspending the guy, they should have just sacked him. He doesnt mean well for Nigerians.

Kobojunkiee:
1. You are right! If the standard is not at 100%, the product shouldn't even be on the market but it apparently has been out there even with the refinery at 45%, according to NMDPRA.

2. That one na assumption you dey make, which I cannot answer to.

Good evening chief, I hope you are reading the news and have seen the results of the diesel samples taken and analysed, both from Dangote and two others imported. Dangote quality was superior to those imported. The house of representatives have called for the suspension of your Boss while thorough investigations continue. The house says his utterances were reckless. I think we can come to a conclusion on this case now.

Kobojunkiee:
No it is not! Product standards are in place to ensure that products do not come out until after(not before) the standard is met.

the last time I checked u guys said the refinery is still at pre commissioning stage and isn't licenced yet, so I am a certified quality control officer and I have worked in a refinery for 5 solid years and i know that if a refinery is till @ pre commission stage then it means work is still been carried out and one cannot expect the products to be 100% desired standards. But even at this dangote is saying come and check my products they are up to standards. We will see how this pans out. The NMDPRA is colluding with IOCs and corrupt government officials in the NNPCL and other oil and gas MDAs to orchestrate evil against the Nigerian state and people.

Kobojunkiee:
Stop letting yourself be deceived on behalf of these people. in his press conference, Dangote himself admitted that the standard of his product had not been the same from the beginning.

it is very valid for a product coming from a just commissioned factory to continually improve in quality as time goes on. The NMPDRA boss is just mischievous with his statement. Lets wait for the results of the tests. The house and minister are on this matter.

Kobojunkiee:
A Government agency has to do its job regardless of the people's perceptions of the times. I see nothing wrong in what the NMDPRA boss did at all. If what he said is correct then there is reason for everyone to be aware of it. These products are being sold to consumers and they have a right to know what it is they are potentially in for. You say he urged a test be done only now, why weren't tests done and made public long before now? Does a drug producer do tests only after questions have been raised about the quality of a product it has in the market or before?

your agency has gone to take samples again, I hope ur aware. Lets see how it goes.

no wahala, todays news says NMDPRA has gone to test samples from Dangote, lets see how it goes. We will catch the liar las las.

Kobojunkiee:
Your government invested $13 billion in Dangote Refinery, money that has yet to be traced to date. Earlier this year, your same government claimed it had to shore up the naira to provide an advantage for the same refinery. Pretending it is not one of the refineries your same government invested heavily in is simply drowning oneself in more delusion possibly with future hope of delirium.

I dont know what you are getting at but obviously you are derailing from the original points of this discussion. Something is definitely wrong with Government accountability in Dangote refinery and Government should handle herself. If there are shady deals there, the relevant authorities should investigate and do the needful. But a government regulatory body coming out to say Dangote products are sub standard at a time when the Nation needs this products is suspicious. I like the way the man has told The house to commence an investigation so we can know who is lying. Dangote products are better than the ones imported and thats a fact. Tell your government not to shy from the investigations and testing of Dangote's, and the imported products, lets see who will come on top. The NMDPRA boss should hang his head in shame.

yes Dangote is corrupt, yes he is monopolising the industry, but he is the only one with the guts to build a refinery that would crash the prices of energy materials right now. Why is selfishness not allowing some Government officials to allow this man to finish up this refinery and products can start rolling out that will help to alleviate the suffering of the masses. Government has refused to revamp our refineries, the one we have managed to build, there is a calculated attempt to make sure it doesn't work. Who do us this thing? In all of this, it is we the people that keeps suffering.

Kobojunkie:
Naira 1000 per liter is cheap? :oEven after all the cost of helping Dangote build that refinery for the Nigerian people, you all will still end up paying probably the same amount we pay here in the U.S. for the product. Yikes! 🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐

You know what? I remember warning Nigerians from as far back as maybe even 2007-2009 that if they continued to sit as zombies in their democracies, a time would come when Nigerians would have to pay the same price we do for things such as fuel and food in the U.S but not with the same ease that we do. I guess the time has finally come. Next to come would be heavy taxation because the government's spending has become unsustainable.

■ It is common sense that a nation that has its crude and as big as Nigeria should have at least 10 of those functioning at capacity and even exporting refined products to neighboring countries as well.

Governemnt should do the needful. You spoke that the same government supported Dangote and now the change in Government are seeing alot of scam. The Government should have revamped our existing refineries. I'd rather place more blames on the government and little on Dangote. If Government have left us with only Dangote refinery to deal with, then let it be so. when dangote diesel got to the market, the prices of diesel reduced. Counting the positives.

Kobojunkie:
Prosecute him for running the script probably given to him by the government to run the minds of the Nigerian people with? Do you think the government that engaged in oil swaps to obtain the purported 13 billion dollars that it invested in the refinery is not aware of what is going on?

2. As is, the cost fo fuel is still being subsidized. Dangote plans to sell his diesel at around Naira 1000 per liter. So, I ain't sure what you are talking about. https://www.dangote.com/again-dangote-crashes-diesel-and-aviation-fuel-prices-further-to-n940-n980-respectively/

@ that price the diesel is still cheaper. anything to reduce the suffering of Nigerians right now will suffice. If he's playing a Nigerian Government script, great, they should deal with themselves, the refinery is a game changer in the issues of fuel subsidiary hike and the chain reactions we have right. we need the refinery up and doing to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians.

Kobojunkie:
So, we should disregard the submission of the regulatory and standard assurance agencies to instead believe a man who has lied numerous times over the years about this same refinery! You be real village champion!

2. That cannot erase the fact that this is the same Dangote who lied to Nigerians numerous times under the last administration and is now playing the same card of lies during this current administration. That refinery was commissioned at least 2 times during the Buhari administration, and we were promised several times even then that production was to be expected. Dangote ran the same dubious script on Nigerians this year too, and now we hear that he does not even have an operational license meaning he has not even produced anything since all of this time. He is a scammer!

3. Dangote was a part of the team during the Buhari administration.
Nigeria’s Dangote Named As Buhari Election Campaign AdviserDangote knows very well why he can't get Crude from NNPC since he probably played a part in the economic decisions made during the last administration such as the oil swaps that probably helped get him, Dangote, the billions of dollars that the administration invested in his refinery business.

Where the fk do you think Buhari got the $19 billion dollar it is accused of investing in Dangote's Refinery business? Buhari Spent Over $19bn Used For Dangote Refinery In Failed Bid To Revive Nigeria’s Refineries, Says Gov Sule You think the money came from Nowhere or what? Your beloved Dangote is a scammer!

If he's a scammer, let the Government prosecute him, not all these campaign of calumny. We need the only refinery we have to work so the price of Pms can come down. I DON'T know Dangote personally nor is he my family member. My interest is for Nigerians to pms @ a lower price and the other way forward for now as it seems, is with DANGOTE.

Kobojunkie:
So, because of the times, the government agency should no longer declare facts regarding the standard of products to be marketed to the people of Nigeria. Are you people sane at all?

2. So, because poor energy materials were brought in before now, the government should no longer work to ensure other poor quality products should not be introduced into the same market. Are you people alright in the head at all?

The spokesman of dangote has released a statement that the products are up to standard. I would rather believe Dangote here. Something fishy is happenning with the regulatory body. 2. Why can't Dangote get adequate crude?

were*

At a time when we need the price of energy to come down, a Government agency is saying this. Why are we like this in Nigeria. It wasn't long ago that very poor energy materials were brought into Nigeria that destroyed cars and machinery, i remember it wasn't dangote. This should be one of the reasons for the upcoming peaceful protest.

Shevchenkko:
As usual you failed to condemn this attack but when Israel retaliate and hits them hard you muslims will start crying genocide. We dey watch

I would have thought you would know it was a reprisal attack. This is not an isolated or unrelated attack. Hours before this Israel took out a commander of an Iran backed Hezobollah militia. When we want to discuss this back and forth escalations in the middle East, it is always important to reference very far please.

All these big big English of progress should translate into people been able to eat and pay basic bills. What is the point of a good economic forecast when people can not eat and the minimum wage is pegged at N70,000.00 at a time when inflation has shut through the roof.

I didn't even know that Nigeria still has any form of wild-life conservation institution. I think hyena is the fastest animal? If so, just know that a hyena could be found in your community any time from now.

hyenas are not so fast compared. But very dangerous animals. The bite force ranks very high. Hyenas are also extremely timid around humans. I am very optimistic that this Hyena will not cause any damage before it is captured.

TBH Reno made alot of sense here. Delivering the FCT has always been a herculean task for the ruling party. Lets see how Wike would turn this around in the next elections.

helinues:
The shouting about the ghost workers or those getting free government money without doing any work is gaining momentum

It has been norm for decades in Nigeria

these anomalies should be put to stop..That it has been going on for decades doesnt make it right. Mr. President should look into this issue and make sure laid down procedures that guard civil service are followed. Thank you.

Rubbish.It is only in Nigeria that road construction is an achievement.What rubbish.Have you ever seen where the western world commission road? These people, immediately they gain power,the next thing they do is road construction.Rubbish and black mentality

it is not about the roads but the succour that comes with the road. Road is a gateway to overall development of a country. The importance of a good road network cannot be overemphasised. Good roads reduce accidents and assist in better trade, movement of goods and services and also reduces man hours that would be wasted in traffic. If the previous ministers had done 1/5 of what Wike has done in just this few months he's here, i am sure the road challenges in the FCT would have been a thing of the past. The impact of new roads is helping in dealing with security and opening up new areas and improving in the VALUE OF REAL ESTATE. Wike should be celebrated and when we have new roads, they should be commissioned and celebrated. Our democracy is growing, we will get there, to a point when roads wouldn't be such a big deal. For now it is.

atiku4President:
Okay o. But Sen. Kingibe will be re elected in 2027 God keeping us alive.

Addendum:
Sen Ireti Kingibe should work closer with Peter Obi whose wind of change blew her into the Senate. Obidients are in the dark as to how closely she is identifying with Obidient activities. If she doesn't adjust, what Wike said will befall her.

It will be very difficult for her to win a second tenure. The obidient movement took the default political winners by surprise. Now that the politicians know the strenght of the Labour Party, they are moving strategically into the next voting season. Wike is doing a good job in the FCT and the people here acknowledge his efforts. Whoever aligns with him and he endorses will most likely win the senatorial position. He is also working massively with the original inhabitants of the FCT, put into factor that APC is the ruling party and the party will be ruthless going forward in winning the FCT SENATORIAL SEAT. Wishing Senator Ireti all the best.
