That's not a random guy sadly.
That's the same person buhari wanted to give appointment or had even given and the apc youths went up in arms.
He is the director of BudgIT
Oh! I didn’t know the guy before now.

Let’s hope the government will respond and not just wish the story away. The points raised by him in those tweets should be of serious concern to everybody o

At this point , I guess this is where we need our media to come in. For all we know this guy may just be capping , speculating or saying it the way it is with a little garnishing here and there .

I believe a national daily like punch or vanguard should talk to oil and gas experts to get a true picture of things and then do an editorial on this issue . I believe when that is done, the federal government will have no choice but to respond and tell us exactly what is going on. They may not want to respond to a random tweet from a blue tick account on Twitter

Dangote is not the only person we give crude to.
We barely meet our OPEC quota as is and we also have loans taken with our crude oil as payment.

So again do we have enough crude for Dangote?
That’s a question neither me nor u can answer . Only Tinubu the substantial minister for petroleum can answer that question .

But if u ask me ehn, it’s looking like the generally held believe that “Dangote refinery will bring enough FX inflow into the country to ease our FX problem “ is nothing but a hopeless hope.

This was what Sanusi proposed that got him fired. The man never trusted Nnpc one bit.
It’s obvious shady deals go on within the NNPC just like every other self regulatory government agency in Nigeria .

Agencies like CBN, NNPC that don’t have any independent body checking them, they are prone to do a lot of shady stuff and make sure it doesn’t leak out.

Yes or no.
Do we have enough to give Dangote currently?
After the first batch was given to him.
Do we have enough to give to him again?
Or you think it's a 1 time thing
Nigeria’s crude oil production as at September 2023 is around 1.3m barrels per day and Dangote’s refinery has a capacity of 650k barrels per day .

Yes, Nigeria has enough to give but I don’t know if Dangote is obliged to get all his crude from Nigeria or he is at liberty to buy from any other country that sells crude .

I also don’t know if Nigeria is obliged to sell all he needs to him or they have other long standing buyers they need to sell to first which will affect what they will be able to sell to Dangote eventually.

In 2007 the guy clearing in my car was an air force guy. When we went to pick the car I met him in the barracks. Next thing he had changed into army fatigues. This was what he wore as we drove the car.

Rest assured if soldiers are lending/renting out their uniforms for escort, they are definitely doing same for bandits. I mean, we even see civilians caught in public in military uniforms. Where did they get the uniforms from?
I don't dispute the fact that criminals can kill a soldier and take his camo, An Airforce guy can borrow his friend's army camo, and some people can use their deceased relative's camo for illegal activities.....But I'm telling u that when u see bandits in large numbers wearing camo they mostly smuggled it into the country along with other military gear.

It is well paid soldiers who are renting their uniforms to bandits. It is well paid naval officers who are in bed with militants. It is well paid soldiers who are enforcers for anyone who will drop small money for them. Whether na yahoo boy or debt collector
grin grin grin

Where did u hear the gist that soldiers rent out uniforms to Bandits? That one na asodun o.
Do u know how many times customs have seized military outfits smuggled into the country in bulk? I have attached 2 different news links for u to see that it's actually people that import military uniforms u see those bandits wear.

https://www.thecable.ng/customs-seizes-n13bn-drugs-military-hardware-at-lagos-airport
https://punchng.com/customs-intercept-sack-of-military-uniforms-from-niger/

I agree some soldiers act as enforcers for yahoo boys but those are usually the young ones who are still very much in their youth exuberance stage who can't let go of their friends who are yahoo boys. Most of them do it mostly for the lifestyle, not necessarily because they are underpaid unlike their police counterparts that have turned to armed robbers

Ehn? grin[/color]
U just chose to misunderstand my point that day and I don already leave u to it.

My point is when they are grossly underpaid , we as a people do not have the moral ground to be expecting them not to resort to bribery , kidnapping and gun-for-hire duty as a means to supplement their income .

It is only when u treat them right and some of them still chose that corrupt path u can then effectively go all out to crush such bad eggs . Look at military guys who are better paid than police , even though they have bad eggs amongst them who abuse their office ; majority of them don’t set out to use their office to rob others .

My point was simple as that. Let government improve their welfare and then let the government go all out to deal with those who will continue in the old ways. That’s still a more workable suggestion than saying they should disband police force

Lmaooo this is barely 5billion dollars.
Lets assume he has like 10 billion dollars still hidden somewhere 😂.
Wooh e do
I asked u the other time if u understood Time Value of money and how it works and also the effects of inflation on all these monies.

Do u think the over 2 billion dollars recovered by Obasanjo administration between 1999 to 2006 is the same value as its the ones recovered under Buhari and Jonathan's administration?

The kind money Abacha stole then, if any president stole it now the country will go bankrupt. How much cabals dey steal through subsidy before APC government voice out say dem no fit dey pay subsidy again?

Bro, this is the breakdown of some of the abacha loot that has been recovered in subsequent administrations

According to Transparency International, below are the details of the recoveries made by successive governments after Abacha’s death in 1998.
Under General Abdulsalami Abubakar: $750 million
Under President Olusegun Obasanjo: $2 billion
Under President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua: $0
Under President Goodluck Jonathan: $227 million
Under President Muhammadu Buhari: $630 million

So far this is what they've recovered.

Only God knows what has not been recovered. That's why I used the example of Malabu Ltd that the Abachas used to corner oil block.

When you account for inflation as well, Ibime. Abacha was a hoover o.

I'm not disputing that.

What I'm saying js that I'm not sure Abacha's individual loot is less than the combined efforts of the contemporary looters of the last say 25 years.

That guy was a demon.
This is my believe too. The fact that he can withdraw millions of dollars from CBN vault with no checks and balances, no court that can challenge him is enough for one to imagine the level of looting he undertook with few of his trusted military guys helping themselves to the crumbs.

I am very sure if Abacha had not looted as much as he did, even some of these present day politican like Ibori would not have been emboldened to steal like they did. U know there's a way u will just sit in ur caban as a Niger Delta governor like Ibori and u will be deeply vexed that Abacha a northerner looted that much from crude oil proceeds found in ur backyard
