sammyscholar: So why was it not reported this way? If we don't ask the right questions, people will just post what they like and create confusions that is not necessary. Do you know their are some Nigerians who earn so high in that same Refinery? no Nigerian earn upto $1k, highest is 700k without 12hrs daily overtime. |

TheBizGenius: Truthfully, I empathize with your point of view that the Nigerian engineers are good, or even better.
But let me say this here once and for all, THE NIGERIAN ENGINEERS ARE NOT BETTER.
The problem is with our engineering curriculum. The way we are trained here, as engineers, does not meet international standards.
Note: We know the basics but we don't "really" know it correctly.
The Indians probably have the correct practical facilities to get properly trained in their own country.
And when you have an expensive equipment, like a N4m Samsung phone, who do you take it to for repairs; a. Samsung office that charges you N1m b. One computer village table top guy that asks for just N200k?
Both of them sabi repair the phone but you, as the owner, you go fit risk am? you didn't get my point, this is a different example you are giving, which is different from operating a refinery. there are good engineers in the refinery bro. they can operate the refinery very well, they know which valve to open and which valve close. and engineer that will give an Indian man directive on which valve to open or close earned lesser than the Indian man that' knows only how to open valve without knowing why he opened the valve. |

sammyscholar: So, do you mean to say that, that's the amount they pay to every Indian Working in Dangote refinery? some earned as low as $3k while some earned above $20k |

TheBizGenius: Is it that everyone here is blind and only @kanixt get eyes ni?
1. The report says the staff has been complaining about the salary for Years. Abeg, when dangote refinery start?!
2. The staff complained about taxes. Is it dangote that chops the taxes ni?
3. And the disparity between salaries of Nigerian engineers and expatriates? You are paid N500k/month and the white guys are paid $26k (N39million/month)? And you do the same job with the same standards?
Who here on nairaland would pay N39million for a job when he can get another equally competent person for N500k?
Now, imagine you are paying that difference, N38.5m, every month for the rest of your business life. Just because the person na oyinbo.
And this make sense to you guys? How? it's true, most of the Indians doesn't know anything, an Indian Man with just diploma, will be earning upto $3k while you as an engineer earns 300k, it's crazy my brother. the engineers are even the one supervising them. |

datola: The situation, according to the engineer, escalated after the circulation of reports that while Nigerian workers received modest increases, Indian expatriates’ salaries were doubled from $13,000 to $26,000 per month.
Indians receiving 26,000 USD per month at Dangote Refineries
BIG LIE! not a lie, Indians erarn as high as $26k, while they pay Nigerian 300k+ |

Ibkay32: What kind of job do you do? Are you an introvert? Do you stay indoors all day?
Questions like these can keep someone up at night.
Try to keep yourself occupied with meaningful work that makes you feel good during the day. You might also consider hitting the gym or making morning exercise a part of your daily routine, it can really help. i am introverted person, my work is basically shift, if i am on shift, when i come back home, i will be able to sleep 2-3hrs that night, but when i am off shift, i will not even sleep at night at all. |

Please, I need a permanent solution for my sleeplessness. I hardly sleep more than 3 hours a night, and on some nights, I don’t sleep at all. It all started when I was young. Back then, I could sleep, but I would have to lie in bed for about two hours before falling asleep.
Now, I can go an entire night without sleeping, and it's really affecting me. I no longer have early morning erections, I’m becoming very lean, my eyes are always red, and I constantly feel a burning sensation in my chest—almost like I'm having heart problems.
I don't even know how to fully describe how I feel, but I’m deeply depressed. Please, I need help. |

PrinceAsanike: What or who was the way before Jesus Christ? What was way during the era of Noah? What was the way during the time of Abraham? Or those who lived before Christ are all doomed? If you like to know truth, don't seal your heart against the truth they used to sacrifice animals, they had priest as intermediaries to talk to God on their behalf, they were living under the law. but when Jesus (way) came, we noe have the liberty, we don't need any animal sacrifice again, we don't need priests again before we talk to God, Jesus is now the way our intercessor. bring us back to God. remember. and so on. there are many things you need to learn as a beginner. God will help you. you need to start afresh to learn. |

1. Health programs in Nigeria may get less money. 2. Disease outbreaks might be harder to control. 3. Vaccination campaigns could be disrupted. 4. Health safety measures might weaken. 5. Other countries might stop supporting WHO too. 6. Nigeria may need to handle more on its own.
It’s clear this decision will have far-reaching consequences for everyone. your number 6 make sense, why would we be expecting help from others for our health system |
