It'll be good if it's sold at around 800 naira.

Nope around 500.they were paying subsidy of over 600 before n it was smuggled to neighboring countries ...now will be half d price of d subsidy n less product being subsidized.

Nobody cares about your opinion and nobody cares about making you do anything. That's your personal problem.

Oh they do...they sending me messages to advice dem already.U guys cannot jst come online n push forward options that are not viable to People who are struggling.If this was a viable option why is european cars not running on cng?
Becos petrol and diesel are better for performance.

iLoveYouToo:
Even if FG were to keep paying subsidies, it’ll be easier to manage the payments for transparency considering there is only one seller (Dangote). Interesting but good development

I believe the price will go down as production goes on and they begin to pay for crude in Naira

My point exactly...subsidy payment at abt 30 to 50 % should continue.Now our petrol consumption will drop as its only 1 supplier there subsidy fraud will be almost completely eliminated meaning very little subsidy payment.
Nigeria will also open up wit economy as 30% saving on fx frm petrol importation will help reduce exchange rate which will also bring down dangote price further.
Then later on subsidy on petrol removed completely.i mean if dangote starts selling at 500 as a result of drop in price of crude ,watS d need for subsidy again?

What's now the essence of the refinery of we're still buying fuel at above 300

So NNPC intentionally increase price to over 800 naira for a reason.This guys cannot be trusted at all.Why not nnpc continue abt 30% subsidized payment to further bring down d price then later remove it wen price drops as result of dollar to naira stability(30% of fx goes to fuel importation)
Subsidy is not something u remove once becos we a petrol dependent economy,price of everything is dependent on petrol
Where are all d professors of economics on naija na

We heard that the refinery gate price is #765/L

"Dangote Refinery will supply 25m liters daily at N765. while NNPCL will import the remaining 15 million liters. By end of October, Dangote supply will rise to 35m liters while NNPCL importation reduces to 5m."

Why must nnpc import anything?no be fx dem dey use import.If gate price is 765 then government subsidize 200 per litre instead of d former 600 they were doing before.
Also,it means our tru consumption will reflect so less subsidy also exchange rate will drop since 30% of our fx goes abroad to import petrol at d later end as prices is dropping becos of our exchange rate... government can also reduce subsidy amout.going below 400 is very possible

They mentioned all cost except cost of shipping via tankers which is alot.Also,if Nigerian Govt mean well knowingwe are a petrol dependent country...They should either subsidize d crude for him or reduce price of crude sold to him to bring down d final price of petrol.

D price nnpc will sell will definitely shake us...all this secrecy is for a reason.They keep telling us d stories we not interested in hearing....how much u buy n how u go sell na wetin we wan hear

Something isnt right at all.Why will diesel be sold to offtakers bt now petrol.Why must NNPC hand be there?why cant they tell us how mch they dangote is selling at n how mch nnpc is selling at wit or without subsidy?

Nairalanders, something happened recently that has got people talking—Isreal DMW, one of Davido’s most loyal aides, made headlines after delivering a deep, respectful bow to Davido at a public event.

While some say it shows "genuine loyalty and respect" for the music superstar, others believe it might have been "a bit over the top". It raises the question: At what point does loyalty cross into something else?

Here are a few things to consider:

1. Cultural Significance: In many African cultures, bowing is a sign of respect, especially to someone considered your superior. Was Isreal’s bow simply a reflection of his upbringing?

2. Public Display:: Was such a public gesture necessary, or could it have been done in private? Does this kind of display put unnecessary pressure on others in the team?

3. Loyalty vs. Flattery: Where do we draw the line between true loyalty and flattery for the sake of staying in good favor?

What do you guys think—was it "a pure gesture of respect" or "a bit much"? Let’s hear your thoughts!

The lawsuit seeks to uncover the truth surrounding Dangote's claim that he paid $100 million to the state government and ensure transparency and accountability in the handling of public funds.

The Department of State Services (DSS), on Thursday, invited one of the conveners of Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum, Comrade Jamiu Olayinka, for questioning over a suit asking the Lagos State government to account for the $100 million reportedly paid by Aliko Dangote to acquire land for his refinery.

The Lagos natives' leader, who was at work, was asked to honour the impromptu invitation of the secret police at 10:00 am on Thursday, a statement signed by the Media Officer of De Renaissance Patriots Foundation in Lagos State, on Thursday said.

The statement said "having contacted his lawyers and members of the native group he leads, Comrade Olayinka went to honour the DSS’ invitation, which was passed to him via a telephone conversation by a man, who introduced himself as the Director of DSS Ibeju-Lekki Local Government, describing the location of the Service’s office in the area".

The statement reads, "Although he was not detained, his people had insisted that he should give them all the details of what transpired as they had told him before he left for their office that they suspected the invitation was due to the Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum’s involvement in the suit against Lagos State regarding the Dangote Refinery’s $100 million paid to the state government over the natives land taken without compensation and claimed to have been given free for the Dangote’s refinery building some nine years ago.

"As predicted by the people, Comrade Jamiu Olayinka confirmed their thought as right. He said, 'I was asked about the case and I told them we are not going back. I told the (DSS) man that I have every right to sue Lagos State Government for the issues.

“'And he asked to know what can we use to back up our Association and I showed him our registered certificate with CAC. He became perplexed when he saw the registered certification.

“'Their plan is to pressure us to back out from joining the case against the Lagos State Government but we will not bow to any intimidation,” he relayed his experience with DSS to his people Thursday afternoon."

In the meantime, the Yakubu Eleto Chambers, lawyers representing the Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum, have expressed concern that the Lagos State Government, instead of providing answers to the questions asked by De Renaissance Patriots Foundation, about whether or not Dangote Refinery paid the government $100 million as claimed by its Chairman, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, it resorted to using the DSS to intimidate "our clients, who had decided to join in the suit that followed after the state government failed, after seven days, to provide the involvement the natives required".

Principal Partner of the Law Firm and human rights lawyer, Barrister Yakubu Eleto Esq, who spoke to the press said, “We are lawyers to both De Renaissance Patriots Foundation, who wrote a letter on July 27, 2024, to the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, under the Freedom of Information Act, asking for information regarding the revelation by Alhaji Aliko Dangote.

"And the FOI Act states that the government or any other such public office so written can be sued if, after seven days, it fails to provide the information demanded.

"The Lagos State Government failed in this regard and we decided to go to court to seek an Order of Mandamus to be compel the state government to provide the information."

“Because the Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum is a group of the Lagos State indigenes who are directly affected by the development, their leaders and members decided to join in the case and, instead for Governor Sanwo-Olu to now be humble enough by commit to the rule of law and await his day in court, he already resorted to using the DSS to pressurize and intimidate the natives in order for them to be cut off from involving themselves in the case and that will be unacceptable,” the human rights lawyer said.

The Applicants – De Renaissance Patriots Foundation and Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum – had files a suit at the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, asking the court to compel Lagos State Government to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of the transaction and address critical questions such as why there was no public statement issued regarding the financial transaction.

The lawsuit seeks to uncover the truth surrounding Dangote's claim that he paid $100 million to the state government and ensure transparency and accountability in the handling of public funds.

The court's ruling is anticipated to shed light on the circumstances surrounding this substantial payment and its potential impact on the lives of the Ibeju-Lekki community.

This is contained in an originating motion, brought under Section 39 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended; Sections 1,3, 4, 7, 20 and 24 of the Freedom of Information Act 2011 and Inherent jurisdiction of the Honourable Court in the matter.

The application was filed by De Renaissance Patriots Foundation and Ibeju-Lekki Peoples Forum, joining Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos State Governor), Attorney General of Lagos State, Accountant General of Lagos State, Permanent Secretary, Lands Bureau, Lagos State and Lagos State Government, as the 1st to 5th Respondents.

The motion, filed and registered by the court with Suit no FHC/L/CS/1603/2024 at 1:20pm on Friday, September 6, 2024, is asking the court for an Order of Mandamus to be issued against the respondents to compel the Lagos State Government to release the information required by the applicants

Dangote Refinery playing emotional blackmail, Nigerians swallowing it – Financial expert



https://dailypost.ng/2024/09/13/dangote-refinery-playing-emotional-blackmail-nigerians-swallowing-it-financial-expert/

He is right,i hav been a supporter of dangote wit no regrets frm d beginning especially wen he was denied crude.However,je has started petrol production now n he has never for once mentioned d price he is willing to sell to nnpc or marketers.Also, recently his manager said their diesel was boycotted....in naija there is no subsidy on diesel that's why it has always been significantly more expensive than petrol.
How can marketers not patronize ur diesel if d price is lower than landing price of same diesel to naija.
It makes no sense here..

Tomorrow we will hear story of turji butler killed bt we will never hear of turji killed for years to come ...always same story

U are asking a man that barely has experience in midsream refining to invest heavy billions into downstream product marketing.My brother most owners of refineries around d world dont market d products to d final consumers....this is a business

FromZeroToHero:
When Tinubu was reforming Lagos, he got so many criticisms. Just like today, they said he is making Lagos expensive bla bla. But today, it’s this same Lagos that is leading everywhere.

Lagos is no longer competing with fellow states but countries.

Today, most people dey japa come Lagos.

When Tinubu was reforming Lagos and taking the state in a reform worthy transformation, some Governors made us believe they were saving for their states and Tinubu was the one doing wrong.

Today, if you ask them what did they do as governors, they will tell you how much millions of Naira for their state. If you ask for visible developments, their supporters will just get angry and start yabbing you 😩😩😩 because they have no evidence.

Tinubu is reforming Nigeria, again OBJ and same “politicians do nothing group” are still on Tinubu’s case.

Tinubu will succeeded, Nigeria will win. 👏🙏🙏🙏❤️

It shall be well.

God bless Nigeria
