Well they are doing a bad job so should liberalize ... I was trying to apply for BOI loan for a start up ..notice they are more interested in funding equipment despite it been a rural scheme ....but fear of Operating cost just held be captive , I just left the farming scheme on their portal like that .. I no get money to dey buy diesel all the time especially when they claim subsidy is out ...but with constant electricity you can plan and you don't need to be servicing an overworked generator.

Its actually you and your father that are d loser. Someone is investing in the economy so that we dont have to keep importing and youre complaining, a move that will employ thousands in Nigeria, and will still bring down the cost of steel, something that you or any of your family members cant do.

If you cant employ thousands of Nigerians like Dangote, or produce what Nigerians need like him, why dont you keep quiet and better still ignore his products instead of demonstrating the worthless DNA of foooooooooooolishness that runs in your family on social media.

Nigeria is a virgin land to be discovered. So many business opportunities spread all over the face of Nigeria waiting to be tapped. The good thing about these opportunities is the fact that most opportunities are littered at the top most level of the land whereby you need to do little to achieve your aims. However, the various leadership of the country since inception of Nigeria solely closed eyes against those resources but focus on only the Niger Delta crude oil. There's gold in Zamfara, Niger, Oyo, Osun and some part of Kaduna. Also Diamonds have been discovered in some areas of Zamfara. What about several solid rock minerals like dolomites etc...littered and practically picked at the surface in Ondo, Ekiti, Kogi axes. So much minerals still yet to be discovered all over Nigeria. How about Lithium, the backbone of any auto battery manufacturer, how about Nickel. All these are spread all over the surface of Nigeria land but the Leadership deliberately closed their stupid eyes to these things and solely depends on Niger Delta oil.

Giving who exactly?

I think the only people who should be ashamed with this is your government, and the daft masses like you who support the clueless government. Every year, billions of naira is budgeted into ajaokuta steel with nothing to show for it, all looted by your politicians while fools like you cheer them on

This is wrong on many levels.

There's a massive glut of steel on the world market due to overproduction by tge usual suspect China. They are dumping steel. These excess capacity Chinese capacity will take years if not decades to eliminate.

It would be cheaper to simply import this steel than waste literal billions of dollars building steel plants in Nigeria

Secondly, does Nigeria even have any comparative advantage in producing steel? I very much doubt it. The only reason why this will work boils down to protectionism.

West Africans should not need to pay more for steel than it necessarily would.

Please understand the issue at stake here. There are a million and one products for Dangote to venture into! It doesn't have to be steel!

Demand for steel is mostly a derived demand. It is not like end you buy soap or even a car which you can use.

Demand for steel is used to make things. Access to cheap steel, especially flat sheets would make Nigerian manufacturers more competitive

Dangote's entry into the cement industry led to locally made cement selling at premium prices. End users of cement have been crying for over a decade.

The same would happen in the steel industry. Costly steel would make many locally produced products uncompetitive.

To get you abreast with how things work, Dangote has been purchasing crude oil from the US. He has been exporting refined oils. Even if Nigeria had surplus crude oil to sell to Dangote, if he got a better and more reliable deal from the US, he will most likely pick the American.

The steel mills Dangote builds may not even tely on Nigerian iron. High quality iron can be be purchased in Liberia, Mauritania, and soon Guinea. He may not consider local iron good enough.

Companies purchase goods anywhere provides them the best deals. That's how the global supply chain works. It won't be fair for Dangote to deprive West Africans the option of purchasing steel from their preferred suppliers. They are also into business like him.

To build a 5million ton steel plant would cost in the region of $10bn. China builds these things like we do pure water factories.

Were Dangote to invest that money into the Nigerian mining industry, don't be surprised if Nigeria's non-oil exports jumps by $15bn annually within 5 years.
