But dangote refinery was able to reduce the price of diesel so why can't they also reduce the price of fuel or sell at the current market rate?
Are aware of the N500-N700 subsidy on inferior imported petrol?

I can see a lot of ignorance.

Those who can read are blaming NNPCL and FG

Dangote is a business man and he has no intention of subsidizing anything or helping anyone.

Has he ever sold Cement cheaper than Large and BUA?

That Monopoly thing is real. NNPCL knows what they're saying about Dangote.
You were making sense until you mention monopoly, monopoly of what if I may I asked?
The Tinubu you voted into power has removed petrol subsidy but you expect Dangote to pay subsidy?

You were almost close to making sense until you mentioned OBi. Dangote have been benefiting hugely from the Nigerian govt. at the expense of common Nigerians while Obi built his business from the scratch with his personal efforts with zero govt. Support (just like every Igbo entrepreneur) Politics aside, don't ever bring in Obi into this conversation or I will take it personal.While Peter Obi start business with Anambra state government money from scratch using Fidelity bank.

Unfortunately, NNPC, which I consider to be a national asset, going public would be bought up by those who have the money to buy it just as they did with those companies you listed. And personally, I think NNPC should be owned by all Nigerians as an entitlement and not just the entitlement of a wealthy few. But I did say we should be entitled to 10% just so you don't accuse me of a mentality. The rest can be listed on NGX.

Oh. And for your information, I would not qualify for any part of that 10% and would have to purchase any I want on the NGX.
Oga, I don't believe in that entitlement stuff you are talking because is their nothing equal ownership of company by citizens. Companies are owned by those who have interest and will the benefit owning a company that claims to be privately owned yet government with being the primary product which subsidy has been removed yet subsidy is been paid.
As I have said earlier, the Petroleum Industry Acts (PIA 2021) was supposed to commercialize NNPC i.e NNPC will be limited liability company making profits for it's shareholders with government having a minority and the private sector holding the rest and not a nationalized government organization selling petrol at loss and recovering with subsidy.
Now, you become the owner of company when you subscribe to it's share with money becoming shareholder expecting profits and profits can only made when NNPC sells petrol at market price without subsidy and not NNPC selling below market price. So, Nigerians owning shares in NNPC thinking that it will make NNPC petrol cheaper than Dangote or any other private refinery is an illusion.
Currently, NNPCL is private company run by Tinubu through Oando and Co.

After reading this, I ask "Is NNPC government owned or private owned?"
That the question APC supporters keep avoiding. The Petroleum Industry Acts (PIA) was supposed to commercialized NNPC by removing the last subsidy (petrol) by June 30th, 2023 which Tinubu removed on 29th May 2023 and continue paying subsidy through the back door. This commercialization was supposed to reduce government stakes in NNPC and increase private investors stakes but right now, NNPC is 50% CBN and 50% Federal Ministry of Finance making it 100% government owned yet parading itself as a private company (NNPCL).

Setting up a business in a Free Zone is a different ball game entirely from producing locally.. Free Zones are exempted from all the necessary checks, regulations, taxes, fines, etc. from the Government of Nigeria unlike those outside the Free Zones (within Nigerian Customs territory).
Don't worry, let Mobil complete their refinery, then you'd understand the difference in classification.

As it stands now, we consider petroleum products coming from Dangote Refinery as imported products that attract import duty and levy, unless the Customs guys decide to do otherwise
Businesses located in free trade zone has nothing to with import, export duties, custom levies etc. Their is the normal corporate tax and other local taxes.

Hogwarthtrades:
Dangote refinery is expected to be listed on NSE (Nigeria) and possibly LSE (London) vs NYSE (source is unreliable) sometime next year. The earliest time being Q2 2025 . 10% allocation is very unlikely to work. Instead, the respective sub-regional government i.e state and local government should allocate a percentage (maybe 2-5%) of their monthly FAAC allocation to purchase shares when it gets listed. SO dividend and capital appreciation can be used as the respective sub-regional government sovereign wealth fund for infrastructural development Same should go for the general public.

NNPCL is expected to be listed as well. sub regional government should allocate some funds for acquisition of shares as well. like you rightly said, NNPCL may be a thorn in the flesh of the president if he doesn't cleanse it once and for all like he did with Emefiele's CBN.

** To avoid knee-jerk reaction, start investigation of the oil upstream and downstream regulators as well as NNPC. Work hand-in -glove with the report of the senate adhoc committee report in about 2-3 weeks , this will be a base to get EFCC to work. \

**replace the heads and subordinates of the regulatory agencies and NNPC found as accomplice in mismanagement or illegality. As for Civil servants accomplice, Nigerian Civil service commission will be needed to ratify any termination of those found guilty and hand them over for further prosecution.

** Anything short of the AGF prosecuting for Death penalty or life imprisonment of the offenders means we are not ready to move forward

If i was a civil servant in NNPC, Whistle blowing in this three institution (NNPC, upstream and downstream regulatory ) is enough as my side hustle to root out the illegality going on there. 1 or 2 Ethical hackers will do the online crawling while i do the manual labour. FG go tire to pay me Ransom
grin grin grin Downside: You may not be residing in Nigeria for the rest of your life though.
Let's not try to reinvent the wheel with these allocation of NNPC stakes. Stock exchanges was established more years ago even before Sir Isaac Newton's time for companies to go public, qoute their shares and whosoever acquires it becomes a shareholder.

I do agree with this part. I also think NNPC should be sold to us Nigerians too. And no, I don't mean to the rich and wealthy alone. Say like 10% of the shares should be allocated to every living Nigerian with provision we can't sell for 10 years. Our vested interest might make us force NNPC to operate better.
This entitlement mentality works no where. If NNPC wants the Nigerian public to shares, it has to go public on the NGX stock market like other public companies like Dangote cement, Access, GTCO, Transcorp power, Tantalizer etc. Let's not try to reinvent the wheel.

RightChanneI:
You are now getting my point, you can't save when you don't have enough. So do Nigeria economy now have enough money in circulation as you claimed? If there's too much money in circulation, people will save because they have enough at hand but a situation where people are crying for food because they don't have enough even to feed themselves so did you think they will save?

Increasing the interest rate is not the best at this time when there is economic great depression in Nigeria. White men policies will never work in Nigeria where corruption has come to stay, we shouldn't follow white men policies because we have different cultures, beliefs, races, etc
I disagree with you because you never have enough money, and that is why there is propensity to save and marginal propensity to save. Nigerians having excessive naira is a sign of currency devaluation which increases the inflation rate and hence, high prices of commodities.
Also, Nigerians not having not food is fiction because the quantity food one can buy is determined by the purchasing power.

Circulation in the hands of which people? If government says they want to take part of the excess money from your own account, will you agree?
Your comment shows you don't understand the monetary system. Reducing the excess money in circulation has nothing to with people banks account but has to do with CBN engaging in open market operations like issuing bonds and treasury bills for public subscription, increasing the interest and cash ratio which is currently ongoing.

I didn't read much what you wrote but I will advice you to study the economy of developed nations, you will understand the reason why they save more and why they encourage savings. Remember, you can't save what you don't have, it is when you have enough that you'll think of saving. So go back and read the short note I typed above!
Are you aware that saving a lot of money in your bank account is a sign financial and economic illiteracy, because money has a natural tendency to depreciate over time and your savings become worthless. Money is meant to be invested.

The system that works with White men economy will never work in Nigeria. Do you now have more money in Nigeria economy? If there's more money in the circulation as you said, people will not be crying for hunger. One of what Nigeria needed now is investment that will create more job opportunities but by increasing the interest rate would that be achieved? You have just displayed your ignorance, because more money in circulation means high prices causing hardship.

What you said above can only work in a sane economy but not in a corrupt economy like Nigeria

The problem is that it's not induced by high demand of goods or excess liquidity, this is a peculiar issue that should be addressed locally not copying from america, the inflation that america is fighting is a fallout of the excess money they have been printing from convid time used for social programmes and their proxy war in ukraine while ours is as result of the subsidy removal and the naira collapse.
Are aware that Buhari and Emefiele printed trillions of naira into circulation claiming it as oil revenue and Tinubu is doing the same.

Because Dangote will sell petrol at 200 naira per litre?

It wasn't advisable to have increased minimum wage from 30,000 naira to 70,000 naira? So they should have reduced the minimum wage to 5,000 naira.

The only excess money in circulation is the one in the hands of polithievians and those appointed by government to head agencies.

Current inflation is as a result of removal of petrol subsidy and devaluation of naira. There's no way a bag of rice can sell for 15,000 naira when these factors are still there.

The only person sabotaging the government is the government itself.
I agreed with your first paragraph but disagreed with second, money is said to be excess when there is more money in circulation than the goods and services produced or excess local currency chasing after few forex. The last time I checked, Nigeria had over N30trillion in circulation with minimum wage at N30,000 showing excessive money supply. If there excess money supply, Nigerian GDP shouldn't be growing in naira.
