EriMma1:
Exactly. You're right. Opportunities about in Lagos. He may just do only two months and land a 500k job due to exposure and connections in Lagos. But Ibadan life and the caliber of people there and their exposure is not as much and strong as Lagos. He'll be limited.

Are you minding these COMMUNIST ILLITERATES?

Soviet-era communists in disguise!

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!

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!

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 parade of semi-literate, ill-exposed professional malcontents pouring sickening invective on the refinery!

I mean, who did this to you people?

malali:
Well said, However i travel to over 30 countries on a regular basis, i can name a lot of countries which in the last 7 years, the currency against the dollar barely changes in 7 years ! And they dont have oil and also import a lot of what they use, We are all pretending not see the mismanagement of funds by these politicians from Tinubu downwards, most of these guys have more than their salaries can afford. They do not own businesses or inherited these wealth.
The subsidy was removed to loot the funds......Until corruption is addressed truthfully. Subsidy or no subsidy will not make a difference.
Thats my opinion.[/b][/color]

Kenochi:
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

malali:
There is more than meets the Eye.

Why do i feel some people are counterfeiting the naira.

Because no one can really explain how there is an infinite amount of Naira in circulation. Even if the naira was free floating by now there should be an equilibrium. It should have pegged itself.

The only reason why the naira can be dropping till infinity is if the production is unlimited ? Counterfeiters ?

To be realistic, no amount of salary increments can resolve this.

This is very serious, the government has to act now........There are so many African countries, who do not even produce crude oil or subsidize forex but their local currency is stable.

Why is the naira dropping everyday ? Are people counterfeiting the naira ?

ahmedio2017:
Hmm I know of the inflation, but what make their pound to be so strong against naira that's the question oga, you don't the person you are chatting hence you won't talks about enlightenment.

ahmedio2017:
Mumu, go and pick him up now, sebi he was the one that removed fuel subsidy? Float naira? Why are you like this in this country? They will just be quoting rubbish for you and you will just be accepting them without any verification. Imf and word bank advice your emilokan to remove subsidy, he did without providing any solution. That same west is subsidizing a lot of food, and other items for their respective country. All the countries of the world subsidized things for their citizens in one way or the other but in Nigeria reverse is the case. When he removed fuel subsidy, some of the proceeds is supposed to be use for subsidizing food but they are embezzling it and you are just shouting buhari left and right like a mu.mu na buhari dey government? Na him remove subsidy? Na him float naira?

What is UK producing that make their pound to be so strong? Oga wake up.

nurey:
Are you just waking up

As far back as 2012 there was clamor that tens of ship birth in Nigeria waters loaded with goods, but leave our shores with empty container.

80 to 90% of our earnings is oil, other earnings like mining, forest reserves and mineral resources other than crude are been smuggled out by our leaders.

All the farmers don japa from bush including as fulani marauders no gree make we farm in peace.

In other words Nigeria is living above its means currently.

Buhari killed Nigeria by printing 22trillion naira without tagging to any productivity. A serious gov will damn all consequences and pick Buhari up and enslave him and his generations seizing anything tied to that cursed name.

jieta:
I like your point apt and cogent, but is there any need for the last paragraph?

N3TRAL:
They wanted to occupy high tables at state events and functions.

SpatialKing:
So because a state has 100 SAs
That's justifies FG having surplus SAs

DeLaRue:
Nigeria is a large country. 20 SAs is not too much.

I think the President is being strategic.

I believe much of the dynamic changes will come from these SAs and not Ministers. The President will have the opportunity to bring in young talented Nigerians from within and outside the country as SAs.

These talented people might be too young to be Ministers.

Also, these old politicians including ex governors still want to be Ministers. This is politics. Mr Tinubu can't totally ignore them, but we know most of them will not bring any new useful ideas.

I am more interested in the young SAs Mr Tinubu will bring into his government.

For the size of the task ahead, 20 SAs is not expensive.

It is the national assembly and ministries where a lot of money is wasted.

detectivejones:
Point of correction 'you will meet our lawyer comrade Simon Ekpa in court'

We use this medium to demand an apology from the UK government. We weren't only harassed, manhandled, and rough handled by their immigration staff, the UK government denied us the hand job and Mouth Action services our principal paid for to some high class oloshos before leaving Nigeria.

Failure to apologize and pubicize said apology on at least three top global politico-news platform within 48 hours means you will meet our lawyers, led by HRM Simon Ekpa, in court.

On the side note, we apologize to Mr. Adrian Brian of the UK Immigration Services for splashing his hands and uniform with our 'akamu' during our principal's genital and rectal inspections. We are also sorry that our principal couldn't resist moaning 'Yes Daddy', 'Thank You Daddy' while Mr. Adrian was squeezing us during the inspection. It's not Mr. Obi's fault; the touch was heavenly.

Signed,

EponObi
