That statement you made ! Subsidy.
You want us to transfer the petrol subsidy to crude oil subsidy.

That will not work, we are trying to get rid of subsidy.
Crude Oil market is standard all over the world.
USA has 130 refineries, they do not have any oil subsidy.
One Dangote refinery will not bring down petrol prices, in Nigeria.
Nigeria cannot sell crude subsidize, where are they going to get money to pay salary and pension. Even now they sell all the crude abroad, we still have to borrow from IMF and world bank.
We are subsidizing in USD rite now n our exchange rate is shit.better subsidized in naira locally here n save alot on fx.

What is wrong in subsidy?? I keep hearing this thing......there is no country where subsidy doesn't exist...FG has only poisoned u pple to make u feel subsidy is an abomination...... U will never enjoy ur nation's common wealth without subsidy in a country like nigeria ..the money not paid to subsidize essential goods or services like health care or education will only be embezzled through dirty palliatives, fake grants to poor families and their usual inflated cost projects like using 600billion dollars to build bridge of 400million dollars
Yes there is no super nation that doesn't subsidized.ours is more of a problem of border control as our products end up in other countries

Bros we are paying subsidy heavily whether i like it or not.price of landing petrol in naija is around 1100 n it sells around 700....that is 400 naira subsidy.dont forgot petrol is priced in usd not naira so d more exchange rate drops d higher d price of petrol

That doesnt solve the problem, if you are asking them to subsidize crude oil to Dangote.
We are still paying subsidy. As long as we are paying subsidy, whether its imported petrol or crude oil to Dangote. Nothing will change.
Nobody is yet to explain how Dangote refinery will make petrol cheaper.
Dangote refinery will sell expensive fuel because he has to pay back loans he used to build his refinery.
I am sure Dangote refinery will sell petrol even more expensive than importation.
Dont forget he is still a newcomer to the refinery world. He is a refinery virgin.
He has to learn a lot before he becomes an expert.
There is no such thing as refinery virgin.yes he will probably sell higher that current rate except FG sells him crude at subsidized rate.dont forget we paying subsidy on imported product wit USD.Its better to subsidize for dangote via any means be it reduced tax or reduce price of crude so his wnd product becomes cheaper.At d end of d day d refinery is a business n they wont run on loss . however,we can pay n collect product in naira which will ease pressure on our currency n also guarantee us quality premium fuel frm dangote refinery not d current garbage dey all import at octane 75

Dumb youths who cannot understand price of product must be higher than price raw material i.e crude which is priced in USD.
D only way out is to sell at crude at maybe a subsidized rate as Nigeria is already paying subsidy in USD to keep price of petrol at current price

Look at these illiterates mentioning competition!! Where is the competition? The oil importation that we have been trying to stop for about 60 years is now the competition to local refineries? Let's tell the illiterate Arewa youths that importation can never be regarded as competition to local production.

Arewa youths are mostly illiterates, I don't expect them to understand how Tinubu is undermining the success of 20 billion dollars investment just to protect his blending plants in Malta and to keep the business of oil importation from Malta going smoothly.

Marketers can't buy from dangote because there is no how dangote can sale for ₦1100

And there is no how marketers can buy ₦1100 when price is ₦600 to ₦800

So only NNPC can buy and sale at a loss ( AKA subsidy of ₦700)

Do you need any more proof we pay subsidy?
We hav never really stopped paying subsidy.exchange rate is poor to dollar therefore d real price pf pms is around 1100

All those people shouting Dangote refinery is going to make prices cheaper.

"He plans to sell at international rates, meaning government will buy it expensive from him and subsidized it for the citizens."

He is a 100% Businessman.
Dont let them drag you into their challenges.
These people dont care about us.
Yes its very correct he cant buy crude at international rate n sell less.Right now,d cost of landing petrol in Nigeria is more than 1000 naira.d current price is been subsidized by government even though they are denying.
Same way,nigeria will hav to sell crude to dangote at subsidized rate to enable him sell product cheaper.dont forget there is also cost of transportation by ship for this products imported into d country.las las it will be hard for dangote to sell below d current price as our exchange to a dollar is terrible n he is buying in dollars.i tink d only government will gain frm dangote refinery is better quality fuel n savings on fx as they could buy products in naira.

Cutting your nose to spite your face is dumb! Policies are made based on interests and facts, not emotions.
When you have sufficient leverage, you can choose to flex your muscle.


My point exactly! It is Nigerians that will suffer it (to and from). If there are no more direct flights to the UK, it is Nigerians that will need to pay extra to go to nearby countries to join connecting flights.

You pay for a service and get it. Yet, you say they are not giving you anything. Understand this, British airways DOES NOT need Nigeria to continue to be successful. UAE just lifted the ban on Nigerians after two years of extensive lobbying (begging), companies are leaving your country wilfully and in droves, airlines have suspended travelling the Nigerian route without flinching etc

Nigerians need to understand their current reality and drop the stupid pride and arrogance.
My point exactly,now is the time Nigeria has leverage.British economy is in shambles rite now....how many prime Ministers hav been replaced within 10years alone?
This is a bilateral air agreement not like we are asking for something new.we both need each other rite now

You obviously don’t know how tribal politics are played in Nigeria. Tinubu can’t fight Dangote with yoruba persons in his government. He will definitely use a fellow northerner to divert attention. It’s same way he will also use a fellow Igbo man to fight Igbos or Igbo interests.

Tinubu is sabotaging Dangote badly for his own selfish interests and greed.

Keyamo, if you give British Airways Ilorin as you've suggested, it is still Nigerians that will suffer it.
Virtually all the states fly to Lagos but not all states fly to Ilorin. Put in another way, all airlines fly to Lagos (sometimes multiple times a day) but, not all airlines fly to Ilorin (for connecting flights) and terminal destination.


First, it is a travesty for you to compare British Airways (and its OneWorld alliance) with Airpeace and its leased planes.
Second, what other options are available?
Lastly, I stand by my initial position - Nigerians will suffer it more.

Can you compare the number of Nigerians seeking to travel to the UK against the number of Britons seeking to visit Nigeria?
So u tink it is britons dat occupu d flight from london to Lagos?smh. Oga british airways needs Lagos route.nigerians really goto london alot.uk government like collecting from us n giv us nothing in return....they are so selfish .we must all make money together

Any adult who was born in the 1980’s or earlier knows how Northern Nigeria used to control Nigeria. In fact, whenever they coughed, the rest of the country would catch cold. But today, North has become a sorry mess. They’ve lost virtually everything. From politics to industry, agriculture etc. The only bragging rights they had left, which is Dangote, Tinubu has also gone after him. It’s really unbelievable seeing Dangote suffering in the hands of Tinubu and his men without any form of support or fight back from the North. Dangote is richest Blackman and Nigeria’s biggest investor yet they’re treating him like a nobody. To the point of threatening his multi billion dollars assets!

I bet you, if Dangote was to be an Igbo man or even Ijaw man, his people would have backed him ferociously. Dangote is to the Northzz a, what Innoson is to the East. Any attack on these great men should be seen as an injury to all. Is there anything Tinubu is using to blackmail North? Has Northern Nigeria reached a dead end where it can’t help itself anymore?

The list of Northern casualties Tinubu is decimating keeps growing by the day. The ironical part of it is that some Northerners continue to sulk it up while others even defend. One thing has become clear, North is no longer what it used to be, they’ve declined terribly in all aspects.
U are talking nonsense.d midstream regulator md that wrongly accused dangote refinery of producing low quality product is frm where?wen will u people understand that there is no north or south wen it comes to sucking my naija dry by elites.igbos n northerners are part of d oil cabal in naija....they all do it at detriment of Nigeria.
