Obrigardo:
Putting all the fines in the civil cases so far he has to pay about $450 million.
That is definitely going to cripple his criminal organization.



What crime
Only democrats make money from govt
.
$5 million to E. Jean Carrol - first defamation trial
$83 million to Carrol - second defamation trial
and now $364 million to the State of New York

And he is being vilified for calling on killer putin to attack Europe and do whatever he wants.

Magats, you need to come to terms and stop being stubborn. There is no hope for him, and definitely not the presidency.

Deziwealth:
So cause 20m naira was at stake he was arrested, the person who gave his info should also be arrested, meaning people knows these people but refuses to hand them over to the appropriate authorities.

I'll always say it aside the government we people are also the problem of the nation.

why should they hand over for free. What's in it for them

You can all see that the hike in food prices has been arbitrary and artificial with no links to the FX situation whatsoever.

The arbitrageurs amongst us have allowed their allure for sudden wealth to obscure their vision from the severe hunger in the land occasioned by their pernicious business practices.

If you ask APC how much they spent on campaigns, they will hire an audit firm and pay them up to twice the campaign money to check the spending, and in the end, there will be no result.
why would they audit themselves
They didn't spend your money

This is the most honest and transparent man in Nigerian politics since 1904. Evil people stopped this man from being president because he will reveal how much is being looted everyday from under the very noses of all Nigerians.

How did they stiop him when he came last


.
He opened the veil of Anambra finances and cleared every debt, executed every project, paid every salary and still gave all accounts, and the state ended up on profits.

Anambra ppl say he is lying


.
Nigeria needs a transparent man. A man of honesty and integrity, not a masked crook who has been in crockery all his life, without any identity or qualifications.

Any din it work the first time?

. It won't solve all our problems, but it would permanently set us on a path to real progress. After that, maybe we discuss regional government.


We already have 774 regions

. We need to understand at this point that, we either 'die' by maintaining this socialist styled fiscal arrangement where everyone goes to Abuja to collect FAAC allocation at the end of the month, or, we breakaway from each other and allow everyone progress locally with the FG standing by to aid.


Nobody forcing you to go to Abuja o

. We are at the very cusp of something perpetually great or damning.

. From this point, this country either dies or it starts on a path that brings true prosperity forever. Everything that can make this country work should be in the conversation moving forward. Enough of this militaristic protectionism of government.

There will never be a time the military will not protect the polluting
So still dreaming

I know, I just want them to start work regional government first before going towards parliamentary government, and not parliamentary government before regional government.
That way, any of the governments excesses can be checkmated if not caged sef like someone said two comments away.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
Restructure Nigeria back to regionalism.


We have 37 of not 774 regions
What did you benefit from them

.
Let the indigenous peoples develop with their peculiarity and grow through healthy competition with other regions.

What is stopping them now?


.
In a regional system, the North would perfect their mining and Agriculture, the SouthEast and South-South their oil and gas exploration; the middle Belt, food production and processing and our refineries would have been working by now.


What do states from perfecting mining, agric and processing now?

.
The land-grabbing being perpetrated by the Fulani in the Benue would have been deemed an act of aggression and would have been curtailed by now.

Why hasn't it been deemed now?


.
Its only in a federal system that the North would foist the brain-dead Buhari on Nigeria and the SouthWest support a microphone-licking great grandfather Tinubu to be president.


How was he foisted
He ran
He won
You had no better candidate

.
In a regional system of government, these men would have been relegated to merely entertaining courtesy calls by visiting politicians who felt nice and polite.

Dangote is a private business meant to profit private pockets but APC supporters have been celebrating like it's a national asset that will profit the common man.

Is common man not profiting
Abi is govt workers that will work in the refinery?
Will they not spend their money in the common market, schooll fees, hospitals, restaurants, mechanics, àbí they will not drive car or fall sick?
Myopic thinking that only profit is fuel price

Kushites:


Are you minding these COMMUNIST ILLITERATES?

Soviet-era communists in disguise!

Closet Maoists and Leninists!


Any bold move by the private sector they frown on.

Any good project must be government-run.

If it is private-run, it means in their heads that some private guy is chopping their money.

Yet this is a capitalist economy modelled after the most capitalist USA and UK!




Not Really
We are more socialist than capitalist
That's why nothing works







Do you know that HEATHROW AIRPORT LONDON is owned by a private consortium?

It has nothing to do with the UK govt!

Zero!

They just run it and pay small tax to the govt.

Can you imagine the reaction if the FG says they want to sell Murtala Muhammed Airport to a private consortium of Nigerian firms?

All hell will break loose!

They will accuse Tinubu of selling off the country’s assets to his cabal and his cronies!

We have to decide if we want to be a capitalist nation or not.

In a capitalist economy, apart from civil projects like roads and bridges,


Eben roads and bridges can be privatised
Lekki to gate and link Bridge

. everything else major you see is private sector - owned. Stadiums, universities, power plants, factories, refineries, hospitals, everything!

Here in Nigeria, you want the govt to own and run everything!

When a private sector firm like Dangote does something big, you frown on it.

But you have NO PROBLEM with private white-owned multinationals like Unilever, Shell, etc coming here and raking in profits while producing a service, but a Nigerian firm does it, and all hell breaks loose! He is chopping our money!

Bad bele


.
Right before our very eyes, Nigeria has become the biggest manufacturer and exporter of refined petroleum products in Africa - a massive step towards industrialisation, and these BUSHMEN on nairaland are here typing streams of ignorance.

It's just pitiful.

The Dangote refinery boasts a capacity of 650,000 barrels of crude oil per day and is expected to meet Nigeria's domestic demand for petroleum products and help Nigeria save the much-needed foreign exchange currently spent on the importation of such petroleum products.

Nigeria currently imports more than 80% of its refined petroleum products. She is the largest importer of refined petroleum products in Africa.

Local production by the Dangote refinery will therefore massively cut the country’s import bill.

''According to the Central Bank of Nigeria, the cost (including freight) of petroleum products imports into Nigeria doubled over a five-year period from about US$8.4 billion in 2017 to US$16.2 billion (indicating an annual average of US$11.1 billion), before rising further to US$23.3 billion by end-2022.

The central bank says the average annual cost of petroleum products imports to Nigeria could reach US$30 billion by 2027 if the country continues to rely on petroleum imports.

This money can now potentially be saved with Dangote refinery plugging the supply shortfall.''

Yet we have this inglorious gathering of professional malcontents pouring sickening invective on the refinery!

Kenochi:
Education is very important,I want to encourage everyone to google the products that Dangote Refinery wants to export and its uses
After that,you can come to a conclusion whether it is something that we use in Nigeria and what level of usage is there in Nigeria

Some of us have always insisted that there are more than three products from Crude Oil,and this only justifies our stance.This brings me to the NNPCL and it's management for the past 20 years.
What did they do with our by products for the past 20 years when they had this rubbish swap arrangements
What did the money for fuel oil,naphtha,propylene,carbon black and other byproducts disappear into

As for Dangote Refinery,this is another big short coming in our nation.A big Oil producing country whose leaders refused to set up Industries and take advantage of their God given blessing
They were busy subsidizing petrol and allowing conmen to destroy this country
The chicken has come home to roost,and everyday we keep seeing that we were just producing leaders who were not willing to take the long road to success but were always comfortable taking short cuts that led to nowhere
At least you agree we were producing them

DeLaRue:


'Upgrading units' - I guess that's for petrol.

So the refinery may not produce petrol for a some months yet. Hmm.

Someone from abroad told me yesterday that Nigeria will not benefit much from the refinery. My immediate interest was in another topic we were discussing so I didn't really press him to explain why he thought that would be the case.

Demand and supply
Price will not change much


.
But thinking about it now, I think the government will just end up paying same old subsidy to Dangote as the current pump price of around N650 is not going to cut it. Subsidy is here to stay.

With which money
They've looted it all



.
So we are back to square one, with the only advantage being that the government will not be buying the petrol from him in dollars.

If Nigeria's wahala is too much, the man may even decide not to sell to Nigeria.

O ti lo o sad

I will start by saying that when it comes to action, igbos will take a competent leader over their tribesmen.

The first elected mayor of Enugu was a Fulani man.


Very dull
No wonder

.
The igbos supported OBJ, Yaradua, Jonathan.


Una get choice
Even your first mayor was a northerner

.
We Igbos have agreed that you have sworn to never vote for an igbo man. Ok thats fine. We will never change your mind.

Wrong
We have sworn never to vote for someone that will pack everything to only his tribe as if every other group is selling grannut


.
But the least you can do is to provide a good and competent leader from your tribe. Una refuse.


Name one good competent igbó leader
Name one state or lga that Nigerians are running to

.
Tribalists please give us a good leader from your tribe and we igbos will ignore your hate and vote for that person.


If you like don't ignore
Who lose

.
We care more about progress than spiteful tribalistic nihilism.

yet na so so pòròpórò full una road and you can't come out on Mondays
