SIRTee15:
People need to understand the realities surrounding Ajaokuta before approaching the issue with emotional nationalism.

The Ajaokuta Steel Complex was designed in the late 1970s and built largely during the 1980s using Soviet technology. While the plant was based on the industrial standards of that era, steelmaking technology has advanced significantly since then.

Even for that period, soviet steel industry generally lagged behind Western producers in efficiency and commercial quality metrics. Reviving the facility would therefore require more than simply completing unfinished work—it would likely involve extensive modernization.

One major challenge is that many of the original systems, components, and control equipment are now obsolete. Replacing or repairing them may be difficult because some manufacturers no longer produce those parts, making refurbishment both expensive and technically complex.

Bringing in Russian firms familiar with the original design could help with restoration, but it would not eliminate the need for modernization.

Alternatively, engaging Chinese or other international steel engineering companies to upgrade the plant could be feasible, but the cost of retrofitting the facility to meet modern efficiency and commercial need could approach or even exceed the cost of constructing a new steel plant.


There's no win situation in that company, any attempt to throw money in the company is just ignorance in display.

BarrElChapo:
Experts have said that Ajaokuta’s steel company is moribund especially the technology behind it. Every administration is using this as a SPV to steal money.

CyynthiaKiss:
I hate selective justice..

Nigeria break up is inevitable , it’s matter of when ..

This current arrangement cannot be sustained. No sane country operates the way Nigeria is operating and expects success/progress. Rule of law ought to be a supremacy of law over everybody in a political system, but Nigerian case is totally different. The law is applicable to some only a group of people..

Nigeria will crumble, and will never regain again.

JCPOA deal was a deeply flawed agreement that enriched a hostile regime without fixing the root problem.

Akara is a shortened form of Akaraje...meaning count, buy and eat.

It is a Yoruba word

PresidentMUGABE:
Seun Okinbaloye doesn't discuss all the troubles in Nigeria. The insecurity, kidn@pping, corrvption, Nigerians stranded in south Africa, diseases and poor healthcare in Nigeria

MakindeHassan:
This one doesn’t have anything to offer oo. He’s just grateful his time has come to share the cake.

Heffalump:
Nigeria will never stand as a nation. Many countries, including the United States of America knows this truth. They are all waiting for when the roof of the house will collapse finally. They are not bold enough to tell you in the face. Only America had tge courage to say a similar thing like that prior to 2015 election.

Britain formed Nigeria to satisfy their selfish desires and ego.

Joey4321:
The same southerners were attacked by the Northerners.

Annexing the south was the protect it's people from their bloodthirsty attackers.


Heres a little bit of education for you.

ceejay80s:
peace will never resign in middle east as long as Iran is on that map

Eba50:
its time for the u.s to take over iran after which they will focus on Nigeria with aid of mossad to send each and every terrorists and their sponsors and supporters, both those in government and those here on nairaland up to their virgins up there in ajannah

Northsouth:
no peace without war
War is necessary
Death is normal

Guestmale:
Is it until America completely destroy Iran before Iranian government come to their senses and allow peace to reign, especially on the strait of Hormuz.

Joey4321:
The igbos defended themselves, while Nigeria attacked.

masterfactor:
This governor don drink burukutu. Who started the civil war, did the Nigeria government just wake up and start fighting the Igbos, politicians and whining.

Let everyone answer his father name oooooo

Lovelink1991:
It has become a thing of tragedy in South Africa when South Africans went and loot a foreigners shop unknowingly to them the foreigner poisoned the the food item, and all died after eating the food.

Presently now they are blaming the shop owner for the tragedy.

Helinuse:


But only 16 American lives are lost,
How then is that possible?


Combine all the US bases in the Middle East, even with Qatar, they are not up to the US bases in Israel in terms of Equipment and logistics handling. How come none of that is destroyed?

How come no Israeli soldier has lost their life in ALL of this war?

shadyLP:
And you comfortable watching or even supporting the terrorists who are even more dangerous than the Satan himself!

Aren't you happy seeing the US eliminating the wantedblood sucking demon killed in your your country recently which even your useless government said the terrorist was eliminated 2024
Well, na until e reach you or any of your related ones u go cry and I will be laughing during your demise

themanderon:
But I wonder why the mighty Iranians are carefully avoiding those tiny Jews they would have bombed to extinction .
It's simply because they know those ones will not hold out and are ready to do more severe damage than the Americans.

ledaman:
The same American that couldn't defeat Taliban's despite with Coalition.
You better wake up from your slumber.
They are losing the battle

Helinuse:
Israel took out the Supreme Leader that the IRGC worships, and guess what, nothing happened.

Basicend:
I have observed that all these kind of reports are fake.

Actual data figures are very classified.

In weapons inventory, only China has anything close to the United States in all categories.

sekeyso:
Might explain the restrain but I doubt the authenticity of that claim. Trump doesn't just want wars to be part of his presidency, forget his talkative mannerism.

American has what it takes (none nuclear arsenals btw) to grind Iran to rubles like Gaza. Whoever has any contrary opinion maybe be living in fools paradise. That they're showing restrain doesn't mean they don't have the capacity to cause maximum danger to the Iranians side.
