Does grey work on Saturday or weekend

Yep.

do you know how much these companies spend in maintaining their diesel powered gen? Do dey have special market for their staff? Salary increment for staff due to economic downturn leads to all des increment u see. A govt that increased the price of petrol, an essential commodity from 160-600 can't blame private business for increasing theirs.

You've a point but that is not why cement should increase by a whooping 120% within a matter of weeks. Besides diesel and personnel costs are only a fraction of the price make up of a product that is made up of 90% locally sourced material. The price hike is just not justifiable.

matify83:
The ministry of works will be at the receiving end because all contractors handling federal projects will come back for contract variation due to the rising cost of inputs.

Umahi once threatened to import cement if they don't bring down the price of local cement. That was when BUA decided to announce his ex-factory price of 3500 which did not see daylight.

With the high costs of running those factories and vehicles, I presume the minister is only putting the chart before the horse except he wants them to fold up like several multinationals who wound up and left due to our harsh operating climate.

The government needs to read the riot act to these cement boys. If importing cement is far cheaper than locally producing it, then the government may well call their bluff if they want to shut down. Compare the millions of artisans who would be left jobless because of the prohibitive prices of cement to the few thousands these cement manufacturers employ. Do the maths and see which is better.

Of course we don't want factories to shut down but if they become cogs in the nation's wheel of progress then they may pay the price.
I can assure you that the construction industry is right now comatose because of this cement price crisis. Think of the Engineers, plumbers, painters, carpenters, iron benders, aluminium artisans, unskilled labourers etc who are stranded at home with no means of income. This cement issue deserves the strongest direct response from the government without caring whose ox is gored!

This APC government have no sense. You devalue you currency to almost #1770 to a,$ollar They have to increase their prices so as to cover their cost of production. That is common economics. What did u want them to do? to produce and sale at a loss?.

The additives in cement production which may be imported is very minimal. Naira devaluation cannot be responsible for over 120% price increment for cement. The major raw material for cement is locally and abundantly available.
This cement cabal need to be checked before they get out of hand.

Depriest2020:
The sad thing here is that after exploring, extracting and selling the mineral resources, the company will take 70% of the revenue, give 30% to Zambian government, the Zambian president will embezzle 10% leaving 20% for the state, the ministers and politicians will embezzle 10% leaving 10% for salaries, with nothing left for development. That's how Africa works.

Touché. You've said it all. Maybe it would have been better for the deposit not to have been discovered at all. At least the environment will not be degraded.

Good deal.

Yes. Keep him alongside George Finidi and co.

He made some mistakes but for a rookie on the crazy African football scene, he did well. Let the NFF have a review and lessons learned session with the coaching crew and technical committee and come up with plans to address shortcomings during the tournament.

For a team that people had little expectation of at the start of the competition, they did very well and made Nigerians proud. Doing one or two things differently would have landed Nigeria the trophy. We should build on this.

If he appears incapable of adapting and learning from his mistakes, based on our next 5 matches, then George Finidi should replace him down the line.

Agreed. Or Emmanuel Amuneke.

His contract target was semifinal and he surpassed it. He deserves an extension.
He only needs to scout for a better attacking midfielder like Okocha/Mikel who can dictate the tempo of a game. We sourly lack one. He would also need new full backs. With these little tweaks I believe we're good to go.

Congrats.

Let's go there, Eagles. Dem go collect again!

So what has been done to him and his brother?

This move is unwise. People will simply start saving cash in foreign currency leading to more security challenges like robberies and breaking and entry.
The government must employ sound macroeconomic and monetary policies to combat this challenge. A lot of damage was done by the last administration, though.

We can't afford to lose this match, our reputation is at stake. Wetin Ghanaians, Cameroonians and South Africa go use our eyes see for social media go pass the Iragbiji pepper wey Tinubu dey show us.

especially Ghana, the thing wey we do dem for sm no good

History555:
Prices will go up once again. Inflation will exceed 34%, massive drop in imports, less jibs for customs, less revenue for customs. More job losses. Prices of drugs about to go up again

You've said it all. This is official devaluation of the naira, simple.

Great move.

Just to look at it from another angle;
are we quite sure that these large scale issues of fake products
is not just Nigerian companies reducing quality and quantity in order
to survive the harsh economy and massive devaluation of the naira?

I know there exist a problem with fake products proliferation but
companies are massively reducing quality of their products just to survive.
When last did you buy Nigerian made butter? Omo butter don almost turn water,
and I mean all the brands.

sometimes you don't even know what to believe anymore. Are the products fake or
just companies adjusting in order to survive? God help us.

There is a reason they are called " PERISHABLES " in the forst place.


You are indeed a clown and a joker. Who buys tomatoes for preservation for a year. This only happens when the misinforned becomes weathy. And to make such a post only does nothing but project your IQ and poor level of understanding of life. In atomic chemistry and physics, a phenomenon exists that is called half-life. By principle, it also exists in biological sciences. The half-life principle when it comes to food and its kinds theoritisizes that the quality of all kinds of foods in life reduces in quality each day until ut becomes ordinary shaft ( death process )

What i am saying in essennce is that it is to your great disadvantage to buy raw foods for long term storage because the nutritional components of the foods becomes broken and broken down by each day. You will eat it but what makes it nutritous and nourishing for the body completely breaks down molecularly and by the time you eat it after prolonged storage the butrients in it would have diminished by as much as 50-70% hence life by this principle encourages continous work so no one stores and refused to work further


I am saying aby storage of tomatoes, vegetables, pepper for long term is a disadvantage. Do not repeata this again. Eat, thank God for provision and pray to have for the future

How do you start "educating" someone by calling them a 'clown and a joker'? Even if you have a point, you have ruined everything you want to educate them about. I'm very sure you wouldn't dare if you were to stand physically in front of the op to call him names.
You owe him an apology, whether you had a valid point or not.

That is an assumption Dangote did not tell you that . If it is cheaper there is a reason
Stop talking ignorantly

Nigeria does not have any oil to sell him .
It has already been sold for weeks ahead and the money spent.
That is why the Naira is crashing

America's Wti is cheaper because it is heavier to refine. Nigeria's crude is light and easier to refine and hence attracts a higher price, that is why it is sometimes referred to as sweet crude. Dangote also didn't inform you that we don't have crude to sell him.

West Texas Intermediate, WTI is cheaper than Nigeria's Bonny Light crude or Brent. Dangote is simply looking after his bottom line. If Nigeria gives him a better deal he will dump WTI. It's just business, people.
