madridguy:
Saudi Arabia should put their faith in Allah and follow Islam. In Islam, we must live in peace with our neighbors.

The same Israel has to beg the entire world to help them against the Ansarallah ( Houthis ) few months ago.
How you people could tell lies so effortlessly is amazing! Incredible!
Your hate toward Israelis and Jews is deep and toxic.

As a matter of fact the stock price of Seplat was either flat or dipped for the first 4 years when it was listed.

Yours truly bought Seplat for N300 instead of the IPO price of N576, some investors were even lucky to get it cheaper.

If this happened with a stock with a total outstanding shares of 600 million, I can't imagine what will happen with a stock with over 124 billion outstanding shares
The appetite of the stock market in 2014 was different from what obtains in 2026.
In 2014, a lot of people had not recovered from the 2008-2010 global financial crisis. Most investors and even companies ''shied away'' from stock market. Only a few people, like you, still managed to be active.
So Seplat could be described as being 'bold'' to even try a PO in 2014.
The story is no longer the same as the market seems to have recovered substantially from the 2008-2010 crisis. The appetite has gone up again
If Dangote had tried this refinery PO in 2014, it could have been under-subscribed and probably failed.

The Chinese should be restricted to factory establishments only in Nigeria.

You can’t just allow them come to start doing retails and clearing out competitors that don’t have as deep pockets as them.

Na so una do take kill SMEs all in the name of looking for Foreign investments.
You see, this is the same reason that some Ghana market unions raised against Nigerians trading in some retail markets in Ghana.

MTN Nigeria my lawyers will be sending a letter to your office I will want a well detailed explanation as to why my private number was used for dangote IPO advert without my consent,my number which is linked to my NIN was used without my consent and I will not take this likely…I will need explanations and if your explanation don’t make sense to me we will meet in court
2:the whole dangote IPO thing looks like a Ponzi scheme to me,if aliko dangote cares about Nigerians to the point where he wants to sell shares of his refinery for as low as 5000 naira plus then he should just bring down the price of CEMENT,PETROLEUM PRODUCTS,RICE,SUGAR, the price crash of this will make life easier for everyone,ANYWAYS @mtn get ready

The only thing that makes sense is the decision to sue MTN for the unauthorized use of his phone number for an advert.
That action by MTN (or whoever did) is reckless!

What was the point of Dangote talking with regulators from SA, Kenya and other African countries? Does he really intend to list some of his shares on other exchanges and reduce his stake?
He plans to build a refinery in Kenya, and he wants to attract investors across Africa for both refineries

Former Dangote IPOs have done 380%+ in 20 Years, Question is can you wait?
Dangote Flour, Cement and Sugar? All in Oligopolistic sectors.
And is demand for those products fairly elastic or inelastic?

Refinery is a monopoly; demand is relatively inelastic.
The economy relies on fuel to run.
The only thing that can mess it up is govt license for massive fuel importation

Dangote's Fortune Set to Jump to $58 Bln on Refinery IPO

Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, is poised to make a $23 billion leap up the list of the world’s wealthiest as he opens an initial public offering for his refinery.

The tycoon’s net worth is projected to reach as much as $58.2 billion with the IPO of Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals Fze, according to Bloomberg calculations, surpassing US hedge fund tycoon Ken Griffin and tech billionaire Eric Schmidt. Bloomberg's Anthony Osae-Brown reports.

Apart from the security issues—which are obvious and undeniable—this is why I question the "Ebi n pawa" talk. It feels like political noise.
Look at the facts: an ordinary fake CBX took ₦178B from the public. Massive capital-intensive projects are going on in every part of the country—by churches, companies, organisations. The FG is disbursing trillions to states. The First Lady is giving out billions from time to time.

All that money is going into circulation. Money leaves traces and rubs off on people.

But circulation is not distribution. That's the real issue.
If you are not experiencing hardship, thank God for your life and His blessings.

''Ebi n pawa'' is Yoruba language, for ''we are feeling hungry''.
It is a statement first used by market women and artisans in Lagos Island when Tinubu visited the Central Mosque in Lagos shortly after his inauguration. Why would Yoruba market women play politics against Tinubu?

Please do not underplay the misery and reality of people who experience hardship.
And do not insult the sensibilities of people who are feeling the hardship

May God bless us all and deliver us from harsdhip

Dangote Refinery IPO has already received inflow of over ₦1.5 trillion. Alhaji plans to raise ₦2.5 trillion and the offer is still valid till Oct 13th.

Someone said the figure on the NGX website may be for the whole market trade, and not necessarily for the refinery IPO alone.

In a way, I can say it's about priorities.

Getting a NIN for a baby/child/student should be a necessity because that is the only means of ID available to them. Likewise, I don't think a baby/child/student can open an account (bank/stockbroking) without a NIN... wink
The phrase ... ''should be'' settles it. The ideal situation.


My question was ''what if'' i.e. outside or without the ideal situation.

Politics › Re: Desmond Elliot Kneels Down, Begs Gbajabiamila For Forgiveness by mikeapollo: 9:42am On Sep 14
dododawa1:


Lagos State House of Assembly member, Desmond Elliot, has apologised to Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu, over his actions during the last All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election in Lagos.

Elliot is seen in a video circulating on social media, on his knees pleading with Gbajabiamila for forgiveness and seeking reintegration into the ruling party in Lagos.

I’m sorry, I have no excuse, I have nothing other than to say I’m deeply sorry and I am hoping to be cultured in the future,” Elliot said.

The development followed a disagreement between Elliot and the party leadership after the APC primary for the Surulere Constituency I seat in May.

Elliot had withdrawn from the exercise, alleging intimidation and political pressure against his supporters.

He subsequently rejected the outcome of the primary and said he would challenge the process through the party’s appeal mechanism.

Elliot eventually lost the APC ticket to Barakat Odunuga-Bakare, who was believed to enjoy the backing of Gbajabiamila.

Odunuga-Bakare polled 11,385 votes to defeat Elliot, who secured 270 votes in the primary.
That picture showing Desmond Elliot kneeling down is FAKE!
It is AI picture.
Desmond is a tall guy; the length of the legs in that picture is that of a very short person!

GeneralDae:
Why not do your own research? Emiefele had swaps from 2018 worth close to $20 Billion. He pledged to JP Morgan $7.5 Billion as well around 2021. As at 2022, the net reserves were at about $8 Billion ( by CBN records) and this depleted to $3.99 Billion in 2023. JP Morgan in advising investors was the first to hint (in August 2023) that our net reserves were around $3.7 Billion which the then interim CBN management tried to deny and which led to a loss of confidence and mass exits of FPI’s in late 2023 to early 2024.

Do your research. All of these are in the open. I tracked some of them myself from 2023.

As for Sanysi’s management of the CBN, it is a fact that reserves were depleted from $62 Billion in September 2008 to $40 Billion as at February 2010 (the coming of Jonathan). This doesn’t say Sanusi is a bad CBN Governor. Only that 2008/2009 saw mass exits of FPI’s due to the global financial crises and oil prices declined for a while and so Sanusi utilised our reserves to stop the naira from sliding.

@mikeapollo, the rule is actually opposite of what you think it's. How can you say it's retrogressive for example if you are told to open a bank account so that the cash that belong to you can be transferred for your use?

If you know the rigorous process that investors used to pass through to demat their physical certificates in those days or even now, you will appreciate the rule.

Anyone can get cscs account within 72hrs or less and it's free so it's actually a progressive rule.

By the way even without cscs account you can still participate but having access to your shares will still require you to get a cscs account.

Let's be well guided.
Okay. Thanks for response and insight.
But I beg us all in the name God, things like electricity, internet, stockbroking, CSCS account etc are a huge luxury in many remote places and villages.

Everyone can participate with or without CSCS. We saw that when few banks did PO and RI few years ago.

For most Stockbrokers, it's actually easier. They provide link.
Banks like zenith, access, providus even flutterwave are also advertising the PO.
