BluntCrazeMan:
If the materials for producing cement are sourced locally,, what has DOLLARS got to do with its cost of production.??

Have you ever been to a cement factory? Have you seen the mining equipment used for mining limestone? To even service those equipment you have to bring in expatriates who will be paid in dollars, spare parts will be paid in dollars, same as importing stuff like gypsum which is imported and paid for in dollars. Those mining equipment and spare parts are not produced by INNOSON so they have to be imported from Europe mostly and it's paid for in dollars.
At least do a little research on cement production before you display your ignorance na.

Dangote enjoys tax relief from the government. Limestone and other materials used for production is sourced locally and not imported. Cost of production alone is not enough for him to triple the price of his cement. It's funny how everyone blames farmers for hoarding grains and inflating prices for commodities but yet no one is talking about people like Dangote for doing same

BUA and LaFarge also increased the prices of their products too, BUA cement is even more expensive but it's okay you can continue with your Dangote-phobia...the poor like hating the rich
You clearly have no idea that limestone while available in Nigeria has to be mined using heavy machinery that guzzles diesel which sells for over 1000 naira per liter, and gypsum which is used in cement plants and it mostly imported in commercial quantities and paid in dollars which is very hard to come by in Nigeria and also cost of diesel for running the factory and transportation.
Person go just post crap because him get access to internet.
Control your coded envy and jealousy of Dangote. BUA too enjoys tax relief just like other heavy manufacturers like INNOSON but it's okay you can kee foaming from the mouth over Dangote a private businessman who is not responsible for policy formulations while ignoring the banza government you supported and voted for as well.

Enemy of Nigeria! You wey dey use your dirty brain, is there any justification for 16k a price of a bag of cement that is produced in Nigeria and over 95% of its raw materials are locally sauced?

Mumu, so because it's produced in Nigeria that has epileptic power supply and because the raw materials are locally sourced then it means the cost of production will not increase?
Limestone is mined from the quarry using heavy equipment that runs on diesel that is selling for over a thousand naira per liter. Others like gypsum are mostly imported and paid for in dollars which the naira cannot keep up with, coupled with the cost of diesel needed to run the cement factory and cost of transportation.... but a slow being like you believes the cement manufacturers just want to punish the masses.
Educate yourself you illiterate...or better still establish your cement factory so you can produce and sell for 1000 naira per 50kg bag. Banza kawaii.

Normal thing...after a long flight what do you expect?

So Soludo is against Igbo businesses just like Sanwo-Olu was accused of doing same in Lagos? Sentiments no go allow some people see clear.

Nicely written by ChatGPT.

In the same Kano cold go nearly kill you during hamattan.

Oxb90:
No other reason than to fleece the populace.

So cost of production has remained the same for cement manufacturers while everything else is on the increase?
Make una dey use una brain before making a comment abeg.
Cement production involves mining with heavy equipment that can only be imported as well as it's spare parts and paid for in dollars,those responsible for repairs are also expatriates who will not be paid in naira, add cost of diesel for running the factory at over 1000 naira per liter as well as importing gypsum and others then you will understand. Pay a visit to the quarry of any cement manufacturer then you will understand cement production is capital intensive.
This headless mob attacking me for saying cost of production...i asked one to give an alternative explanation to mine and the farm tool said the reason is Tinubu . Na so sentiments go make you fail exam.

Increase in cost of production, transportation etc... that is what you get in a dollar-dependent economy.

Economic diplomacy? They should be awarded for economic exploitation instead.

Lobi Stars & Enyimba.

matify83:
These ones will be released soon.

Is it not our police and judiciary again?

Remember, chinasa was also on bail for kidnapping when he staged another failed one.

Na you go release dem? Mumu just full for NL.

Melagros:
APC's propaganda thread, where on earth can you get those cooking ingredients for 2k?

So you know all the places where one can get cooking ingredients in Nigeria? Mumu, everything is not about APC propaganda you children of hate.

mceze:
Read and comprehend. She said minus the rice. Meaning she has rice already.

"Read and comprehend?"...You wan kill am? Even if comprehension falls on his laps he wouldn't recognize it.

madjune:
It's either food or sex in Nigeria.

Or football and music!

What are we inventing to enrich our export?

Are you not a Nigerian? What have you and your family invented? Banza kawaii.

Nchenches:
Chai. See rotten/expired tomatoes and rotten/expired green/red pepper weh Oyibo go don throway.
No be your fault. Nigerians have signed up for suffer through the type of political leadership they support. Pity those who refused to sign up but are forced to be in one Nigeria.

Swear say dem never use this kind tomato/pepper cook for your cubicle... Yeye dey smell.

Lovelyn451:
where will u even find that nonsense fish in Anambra, who uses it in Anambra, its either mangala or ice fish

You forgot to add gully erosion...mumu.

The legion of illiterates on NL is staggering. Without reading to comprehend these headless-chickens will argue and foam from the mouth, OP say the 2k only covered ponmo,fish,pepper,oil & seasoning which is very possible so i don't understand the name calling and arguments.

Conner44:
You're a giant liar. N2K CANNOT COOK WHAT IM SEEING IN THIS PLATE.

Even if you have over half the ingredients at home already then why lie that's its only 2k you used in cooking the food? You're a very manipulative woman.

So you are trying to say food is cheap in nigeria today or what? Are you okay?

Never try this stunt again, next time calculate the all the ingredients together.

Tomorrow if I go out and buy only red oil N50 and cook rice with all the rest of the ingredients at home you'd now expect me to come here and open thread of my N50 plate of complete rice and stew abi?

You just make me vex this night. NEVER TRY THIS STUNT AGAIN

Is everything okay at home? Hope this hardship hasn't turned you into a lunatic? Or you're just another NL idiot?

TheOldGods:
For example if you loose your driver's license, you don't need to go to the driver's license office, just go online or find any vendor and print it as long as your name is in the system. It won't be illegal after supreme court judgement this month.


What a time to be a Nigerian

I will print my international passport without the stress of Nigeria Immigration Service & Embassy wahala

Edris Abdulkareem’s song “Nigeria Jaga Jaga “ which debuted 20 years ago makes more sense now.

Nothing unusual to a billionaire businessman like Adenuga. During the bidding for GSM licenses in the year 2000 ,Mike Adenuga’s company lost a bid to obtain the GSM license despite paying the UNREFUNDABLE bidding fee of $120 million.
Most men wouldn’t dare attempt to invest more funds in a business that cost him $120 million but this m@#thefvker called Mike Adenuga did just that, he doubled his spending and worked on the faults of his failed bid and eventually Glo Network was born and the rest is history.
$3.3 billion still makes him one of the richest people on earth, part of the 1%.

This passport invites extra scrutiny of your person when presented abroad.
You are considered a drug trafficker or cyber criminal and immoral person…until proven innocent.

You did not mention the political party he is contesting under.
