EvilMetahuman:
monopoly is very bad.

Dangote is the only serious one we couldso far.
Would you rather the government spend money on the repairs of obsolete equipments in our refineries or that they allow the private sector come in to boost their refining capacity & create more wealth?

So you would prefer we import than allow Dangote "monopolize" the system? Nothing stops you from getting yours & competing with him.

EvilMetahuman:
what are these policies? Name some of them?

major thing nigerians will feel from oil sector is buying petroleum products at very cheap price since we produce crude oil here.

To achieve that, we need a functioning refinery.

2 years down the line, the 3 refineries we have, non is working. They are not building more. Heck they are not even selling the refineries.
He is just waiting for dangote to come and completely monopolise that sector like cement.

He is just a failure like bunch of buahri's minister.
Monopoly is not as bad as you see it. Dangote is not the only person licensed to build one also.

Kachikwu promised to end importation of petrol by 2019 or he would resign.
Bringing in the private sector and the modular refineries, especially with the likes of DANGOTE REFINERY could put an end to it sooner.

Fayose was only taking advantage of this, by further heating up the polity in other to stir up the dust again in order to make Nigerians ask questions such as

What's so hard in just proving that the president is alive & healthy and not on life support as claimed by Fayose?

Nairaland General › Re: Community Buy Man Car After Finding Him Walking 3miles To& From Work In 32° Heat by Ehiscotch(op): 7:25am On Jun 29, 2017

Nairaland General › Community Buy Man Car After Finding Him Walking 3miles To& From Work In 32° Heat by Ehiscotch(op): 7:22am On Jun 29, 2017
A man who was forced to walk miles to work in
sweltering heat, has been bought a car by
members of his local community.

Justin Korva regularly braved temperatures of
90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 Celsius) to get to his
job at Taco Casa in Rockwell, Texas.

The 20-year-old was picked up on his three-
mile trek one morning by Andy Mitchell, who
posted a picture of pair on Facebook next to a
message explaining his journey.

“To all the people what say they want to work
but can’t find a job or don’t have a vehicle, all I
can say is you don’t want it bad enough,” Mr
Mitchell wrote.

The story was shared within the local
community and Samee Dowlatshahi, the owner
of a local pizza restaurant, started a secret
donation box for Mr Korva at his business, CBS
News reported.

In less than 48 hours members of the local
community had donated $5,500 (£4,290).
A local car dealership then worked out a deal
for a 2004 Toyota Camry, which was bought for
Mr Korva with the money.

The car was then presented to him one day
after work.

“Instead of you walking to work buddy, you’re
driving this car from now on,” Mr Mitchell told
his friend. “It’s paid for in full, all you’ve got to
do is drive it.”

The money donated by people paid for the car,
a year’s worth of insurance and a $500 (£390)
petrol card.

Mr Korva was filmed hugging the members of
the group who turned up to give him the car.
“I’m at work, I’m clocking out and I’m leaving,”
Korva told the ABC13 news channel. “And as
I’m leaving, I just see all these people -- I’m
like, ‘What’s going on?’”
“I wouldn’t think something like that would
happen to me,” he said.
Politics › It’s A Shame We Are Still Importing Petroleum Products – Kachukwu by Ehiscotch(op): 7:11am On Jun 29, 2017
Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachukwu has said that Nigeria remain the only oil producing country that is still struggling with the importation of refined petroleum products, describing the situation as a complete embarrassment.
The Minister said Nigeria was the only member country of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) still grappling with the importation of refined petroleum products.
Kachukwu who spoke at the 5th Triennial National Delegates Conference of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) in Abuja also said it was a shame that despite its huge resources, Nigeria has continued to grapple with epileptic power supply.
He said Nigeria should be able to produce enough petroleum products to meet domestic needs, pointing out that changing times in the industry suggest that Nigeria must look for ways of ensuring efficient management of the refineries and make them productive or lose them and the job opportunities it offers.

In as much as I am pained by our current situation, I still believe that this is a blessing in disguise, just like Pat Utomi said.
The rate at which a lot of people are engaged in farming & the general awareness created in the public about diversifying & agricultural revolution, I can bet my two cents that the prices of these goods would shimmer down when supply continue to increase.

To those mentioning, agriculture is a must, importation of everything we eat, wear, even our gadgets are imported. The strides and achievements we recorded when agriculture was our major activity cannot be matched by a corrupt filled & income dwindling oil sector.

Politics › Fashola’s Budget Proposal Failed Integrity Test – Reps by Ehiscotch(op): 11:47pm On Jun 28, 2017
The House of Representatives said on Wednesday it would not allow the nation’s resources to be unfairly distributed to the detriment of any section of the country.

The lawmakers said the National Assembly was forced to tinker with the 2017 budget because the proposal presented by President Muhammadu Buhari for Ministry of Works, Power and Housing failed integrity test as it was skewed to favour a section of the country.

The House Spokesman, Abdulrazaq Namdas, said in a statement the time was ripe for Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, to know that it was the duty of the National Assembly to ensure fairness in the distribution of nation’s resources.

He said: “We need to remind Mr. Fashola that the National Assembly is a national institution made up of members from all geo-political zones, they represent all tendencies, interests and ethnic nationalities.



“It has a responsibility also to ensure balance in the distribution of road projects and other developmental facilities.

“It cannot watch our national patrimony unfairly skewed to one region or a few regions to the detriment of other states and geo-political zones.

“The proposal from Mr. President on the 2017 Budget of the Ministry of Works, Power and Housing did not pass this test.

“This partly informed the intervention of National Assembly so that every region can be carried along in project allocation.”

Education › ASUU Appeals To FG To Approve Funds For Perimeter Fence For Unimaid by Ehiscotch(op): 11:27pm On Jun 28, 2017
Academic and non-academic staff of the
University of Maiduguri (Unimaid), have appealed
to the Federal Government to approve funds for
the construction of perimeter fence round the
University to address the current spate of suicide
bombings.

Unimaid ASUU Chairman, Dr Dani Mamman,
made the appeal on Wednesday in Maiduguri
while briefing newsmen on behalf of other unions
which include SSANU, NASU, NAAT and SUG.

“We advocate for the immediate construction and
fortification of the perimeter fence which is
porous and easily accessible by the misguided
suicide bombers.

“In this regard, we implore the Federal
Government to give special consideration to the
management request for funds for the project,”
Mamman said.

He also urged the government to approve the
request of the management for the procurement
of modern security equipment to ensure security
at the university.

“Given the place of science and technology in the
21st century, we strongly believe that the use of
modern security equipment is a better option of
providing policing.

“We urge the Federal Government to give
immediate attention to management request on
the two projects which amounted to N2.8 billion,”
Mamman said.

The ASUU chairman added that no amount of
money was too much to save lives.
“We believe that no amount of money is too much
to save lives of over 40, 000 staff and students
that have bravely refused to give up to the
ideology of the Boko Haram insurgents that
forbids Western education.

“Those staff members that braved the dreaded
insurgents and remained to teach deserve
special consideration and commendation by
Federal Government,” Mamman added.
Newsmen report that Unimaid had witnessed
several suicide bombings lately.

The latest attack took place on Sunday in which
over 16 persons were killed.
