PoliticsRe: ‘It Must End Now’, Netanyahu Condemns ‘Christian Genocide’ In Nigeria by malali: 8:53am On Dec 25, 2025
This is the kind of rhetoric that destabilizes nations.

While tens of thousands have been killed in Gaza, he appears on television attempting to shift the conversation to Nigeria, as if Nigeria were the problem that demands his moral attention. It feels like a deliberate diversion — a way to deflect scrutiny from the humanitarian catastrophe in Palestine by projecting concern elsewhere.

Many Nigerians believe that growing tensions between Nigeria and the United States are not organic, but are being influenced by broader geopolitical interests tied to Israel. Whether through lobbying, pressure, or narrative framing, these dynamics deserve honest examination, not denial.


This is a man who has faced unprecedented global protests, with demonstrations against his actions erupting in major cities across the world. He is accused of serious violations of international humanitarian law, with the International Criminal Court prosecutor seeking accountability. Large parts of the international community now view him as politically isolated and morally compromised.

Yet here he is, under studio lights, speaking as though Nigeria is his concern.

Nigeria is not his project. Nigeria is not his distraction. Nigeria is not a talking point to be used while Gaza burns.

If he wishes to speak to the world, let him first show humanity. Let him address the suffering in Gaza. Let him confront the accusations before him. And above all, let him keep Nigeria out of his mouth.

Nigeria has its own voice, its own struggles, and its own dignity.

We stand with Professor Kailani. The government must open a full, independent probe into all funds obtained from Emefiele’s CBN to finance the refinery. The loans, repayment terms, concessions, and payment records should be investigated and made fully public.

A man who appears thin-skinned, vindictive, and quick to go after anyone who expresses a contrary view. A man who cannot tolerate accountability or correction. A man who seems to equate disagreement with hostility.

That apology did not sound voluntary. It sounded coerced — like someone speaking under pressure, even fear.

No individual, no matter how wealthy, should be above scrutiny. Power without accountability is dangerous, especially in something as critical as a nation’s energy sector.

nedekid:
Oga over 45 licenses was given for the building of refinaries, anyone that is alleging monopoly by dangote had the option of investing their money and building, they did not, because they did not believe in Nigeria, rather they took the easy way out, risk free, import, create jobs abroad then dump. Dangote took the risk, believed in the country and almost ruined himself building that refinary. Have you not heard people like Otedola laugh at him for been insane to commit to such stressful project in naija when he could have played safe and be enjoying his billions operating out of Monaco, London, Paris? Hang on, is it that you do not know Oga at the top is probably richer than dangote, why has he not built refinaries with his billions, bullion vans, private jets, all wealth without enterprise, instead he like a leech feeding and accumulates wealth for generations by taxing poor people.
Oga some of us have manufacturing background, back then in iganmu industrial estate a bustling industrial zone, lots of factories, next thing our neighbor a Lebanese imported some of the products he manufactured and saw it was stress-free, gradually he stopped and focused on his importing, next he sold his machines and sacked hundreds of staff, (Nigerians), he turned the space to warehouse first importing what he produced previously, then expanded to general goods, from I pass my neighbour generators, to kerosene lanterns, bicycles, tyres etc, that was how other factory owners saw him progressing in challenging times, gradually all the factories in that area followed suit, import, sack workers, sell machine, use the factory space to store and sell goods fast fast without stress of manufacturing. My papa no gre join them saying it was economic sabotage. Last last all the area changed, popsi too had to shut down factory, turned the place to storage, sold the machines, once crazy importer then built a warehouse blocking the flow of water, which finally signed the death warrant for any remaining factory in that area.
Oga you cannot use imports to compete with your local investor that puts up a refinary ie imported substandard products of which nnpc admits it has no lab to know the quality. Rather if dangote will be the monopoly until other refinaries come on ground then so be it. Thank God BUA refinary and few others will soon be ready.
Dangote didn’t just get permission to build a refinery; he got privileged access to subsidized dollars from the CBN—something most Nigerians and even major businesses could never dream of. Before fuel subsidy removal, FX at official rates was one of the scarcest, most tightly controlled resources in Nigeria. Dangote built this refinery when the naira was roughly ₦350 to $1. At today’s rates, rebuilding the same refinery would cost north of $80 billion, not the $20 billion he claims. That gap—about $60 billion—is effectively a state-backed transfer of value. No Nigerian has that capital. No serious foreign investor would risk that kind of money in Nigeria to compete against Dangote, especially given his long history of aggressively defending market dominance. That alone practically guarantees monopoly.

Now to energy security. No serious country relies on a single private individual to supply all its petrol. Not Saudi Arabia—Aramco is state-owned and they still import. Not the U.S.—Chevron and Exxon are private, yet America still imports fuel. Importation isn’t sabotage; it’s insurance. It’s a hedge against price gouging, supply shocks, and abuse of dominance. The fact that price gouging hasn’t fully started yet is irrelevant—monopolies don’t rush; they wait.

We’ve already seen this movie with cement. Nigeria now has some of the highest cement prices in West Africa, despite being a major producer. The belief that “local manufacturing automatically means cheaper prices and more jobs” has proven false. If cement were cheaper—even via imports—you’d see more construction, more artisans employed, cheaper rents, lower transport costs, and broader economic activity. Instead, we handed pricing power to a few players and became hostages to their margins. The “cement god” era is the proof.


Now we’re on the verge of repeating the same mistake with petrol. Dangote is simply transitioning from cement god to fuel god.

The solution isn’t to kill the refinery or discourage local production. It’s to permanently maintain an import quota. Let Dangote supply the bulk, yes—but never more than 80–90%. Keep 10–20% open to importers, with a transparent, cleaned-up process. That slice is enough to discipline prices. The moment prices are artificially marked up, imports step in and crush them. That’s how markets are supposed to work.

This is exactly what Dangote is trying to prevent. If imports exist—even at small volumes—he cannot dictate prices. The market sets them. Consumers win.

Dangote is an unapologetic capitalist. That’s not a moral judgment—it’s a fact. Capitalists maximize profit when unchecked. It’s the government’s job to ensure no single private actor becomes more powerful than the market itself.


My stance hasn’t changed. Allow imports. Always.
Anything else is just setting the stage for another long-term economic hostage situation.
PoliticsRe: Dangote Threatens Kaduna Businessman, Kailani Mohammed With ₦100 Billion Lawsuit by malali: 11:49am On Dec 23, 2025
Kailani has the right to hold a contrary opinion. Asking someone if their wealth is clean ? Or how did you make your money is not defamatory ?

Before a country the size of Nigeria can safely allow a single businessman to supply most of its energy needs, clear guardrails must be agreed on. Energy security depends on redundancy, competition, and flexibility, not faith.

A sensible approach is quota-based diversification. Importers should retain a defined share of supply, and Dangote’s refinery should also be allocated a quota. Start at something like 50:50. If, over time, local refining proves more reliable, cheaper, and efficient, the government can gradually rebalance—60:40, 70:30—until local refineries handle perhaps 90% and imports 10%.


That structure creates optionality.
If a dominant local supplier ever attempts to hold the country to ransom, imports can be ramped up quickly. If importers collude, sabotage supply, or exploit subsidies, domestic refining takes the lead. Each side disciplines the other.

But eliminating importers entirely and handing the market to one refinery creates a textbook monopoly. Once alternatives are gone, prices rise, leverage shifts, and the public loses protection. That’s not industrial policy—that’s replacing foreign dependence with single-node domestic risk.

The correct strategy isn’t “imports vs Dangote.”
It’s competition by design, phased transition, and built-in escape routes.

That’s how serious countries protect energy security.

Forced out by the tirades of a monopolist Oligarch who is so use to having his way from the Babangida Era.

He snatched cement from everyone, now cement prices are more expensive in Nigeria than in neighboring African countries

He is in the process of snatching petrol now from everyone......when he is done he will jack up the prices and blame it tax by the government.

Nigeria despite having anti-monopoly framework is the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) of 2018. It created the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC).


What the law is supposed to do
• Prohibit abuse of dominant market position
• Prevent anti-competitive agreements (cartels, price-fixing)
• Review and approve mergers and acquisitions
• Protect consumers from price gouging and unfair practices
• Break up or sanction firms engaging in monopolistic conduct

The real problem, its never enforced,more than hald the senators are in the pockets of a few businessmen


Nigeria’s challenge is not the absence of law, but selective application:
• Enforcement is weak against politically connected firms
• Dominance is often justified as “national interest” or “industrial policy”
• Regulatory agencies can be overridden by executive directives
• Smaller competitors lack the legal and political muscle to challenge abuse

Nigeria has anti-trust law.
What it lacks is consistent, fearless enforcement.

God bless your soul.
That was how past Presidents made Aliko Dangote the billionaire he is today.
They started with cement and look at where Dangote brought us to in the cement business? Cement is now very costly you wonder how salary earners in Nigeria can afford to build a house with the exorbitant price of cement.
Whenever Dangote is screaming and crying, it's because he is not getting away easily with his monopolistic business approach like he used to.
But unfortunately most ignorant Nigerian youths just praise and side with Dangote in the name of he is providing jobs, what nonsense jobs?
I agree with you 100%. The so-called jobs created are nowhere near enough to justify effectively taxing 250 million people through inflated prices. Markets should be open and competitive, not structured to favor one dominant player. This is exactly why foreign investors hesitate to commit serious capital to Nigeria, they know the moment an oligarch decides to enter your space, policy will tilt, competition will be squeezed out, and your investment becomes stranded. The “job creation” narrative is largely an illusion: workers lack strong unions, bargaining power, and robust benefits. Worse still, the refinery hasn’t even operated long enough to prove reliability and consistency, yet there’s already an aggressive push to drive out importers through levies and regulatory pressure. If the goal were truly to help Nigerians, the strategy would be simple, compete on lower prices, not protection, and let efficiency, not influence, win.

Stop writing a needless long comment.

Importers should form a corporate, pool their resources together and fund a refinery project they will all benefit from, according to a definite percentage.

If Dangote and BUA are doing it, why can't they? Waltersmith built a 5k bpd refinery and plans to expand it to 50k bpd. If the importers cannot do 650k like Dangote, they should do 50k or 100k. We must learn to build something.

The problem with us is that we like easy money. Importing something we have in large quantities in Nigeria is madness. We were taught in elementary Economics that importation kills the local economy, but it seems nobody learnt that. Nobody builds a country by importing what it can produce locally.
Even Saudi Arabia imports.
America imports.
Importing itself has never been the problem.

The real issue is system integrity.

If everyone had access to FX at ₦350/$—the same environment Dangote enjoyed while building, Nigeria would already have multiple refineries. Capital follows fair rules, not speeches.


Sanitize the system, remove corruption, stabilize FX and pricing, and investors will build. Don’t ,and even local refining becomes another rent-seeking playground.

Local refineries do not eliminate corruption. Price manipulation, volume padding, delivery shortfalls, those loopholes will still be exploited. Refining alone doesn’t fix governance.

And no serious country hands its entire energy supply to one businessman. That’s not industrial policy, that’s single-point failure risk.

Diversification isn’t anti-local.
It’s pro-security.


Importing was never the enemy.
A broken system was.
