mrvitalis:At least acknowledge the fact about the Dangote cement artificial price hike and how it truly may have been the root-cause of the current refinery debacle, before you start attacking other minor issues. I'm no supporter of Tinubu, but this is very probably the reason for Dangote trouble. |

No wonder Tinubu is protecting the interest of Nigerian masses so that we don't become easy picking for Dangotes monopoly. If Dangote is allowed to control oil as he does cement then it will hurt Tinubu politically. Dangote needs to bring down his cement price down and guarantee cheap fuel. They think they are still dealing with Buhari. Tinubu is far ahead of all the Nigerian cabals ! |

RenaissanceGuy:There is no artificial increase in dangote cement in fact dangote cement has never been this cheap ever in the history of Nigeria never Cement is 5 dollars per 50kg in nigeria right now show me one just one west African country with cheaper cement I dare you When you miss manage your economy and your currency loose value you expect things to remain same in your local currency? Even in China with their advantage of scale the price is 4800 naira if you convert it The problem with most Africans is they never tackle problems they only tackle systems |

mycar:The biggest problem Dangote is facing currently is access to raw materials (crude oil), the Nigerian government is not interested in doing business with him and his foreign suppliers have ganged up to frustrate him by hoarding supply at the behest of foreign refiners who sees him as a very big threat to their business. Reason you see the once quite billionaire shouting all over social media like a content creator, cos every single minute his refinery will be losing millions without production. |

Imports must not be stopped. There needs to be competition. |

Britishpea:I was just tired for the guy and couldn't reply his tomfoolery. Thanks for letting him know, let's see his IQ. According to the OP, things locally produced shouldn't be that expensive irrespective of the demand. They should allow importation if the locally produced items are more expensive than the imported. Dangote should emulate airpeace, I don't know how he does it but he has shown it is possible. |

Biodun556:Fabricated lies. Show us verify fact. Which media did you obtain it from. I understand some of you are still in pains of the realization of the refinery by Dangote. You people said it can't work. |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by Biodun556(op): 2:37pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
kedeojo:Which of the facts do you need proof for? I support dangote but it doesn't mean I should not criticize him He has its own fault He was over pampered by previous governments |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by logan2(m): 2:43pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
Biodun556:Your take is flawed. If manufacturers face a 300% increase in electricity and fuel costs, along with several other indirect taxes due to Tinubu's policies, they cannot maintain the old prices for their products. It's simple maths. Except you know their profit markup after the increased taxes. |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by EcoNews: 2:51pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
I taught Dangote produce it own electricity n also refine it own fuel. Does that not make your argument flawed as well ?! logan2: |

malali:Very correct. The only mistake Bola Tinubu is making is making his government a Yoruba enclave with 90% key appointees being Yorubas, this is his biggest undoing. Bola should have scouted for competent Igbos and Southsouth and even Middlebelt people to cement his government and make it detribalized to fight off Northern wolves. But his ignorant oh yes tribesmen think he is doing the best for them, e go shock them soon. Obasanjo is a smart Yoruba man, I suspect he must have Igbo blood as being rumored for years. Forget Omo Igbo get sense sha and na why senseless Yoruba Ronu miscreants and Hausa-Fulani Moslem fanatics hate Igbos ![]() |

Op what you are saying makes sense, that I'm not Tinubu's fan will not stop me from applauding some of his policies that is good for Nigerian like this case at hand before Obasanjo who knows Dangote . Obasanjo made Dangote what he is today by giving him monopoly then followed by other government till date and here comes Pharaoh that doesn't know Joseph. What the president should have done is to open borders and all open market so that the price of cement will crash. |

This sound convincing! |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by brodalikeme(m): 5:12pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
mycar:I think the challenge he will face by reducing his price is that PMS is heavily subsidized by the FGN, I think the difference between the actual landing cost and selling price is about N500/liter, making it impossible to sell locally without government patronage. These issues currently going around requires a political solution with the Nigerian interest at heart. |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by danzaki63: 5:28pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
Why didnt Tinubu asked for the massive importation of Cement. instead of victimizing Dangote and the rest. It is an insult on our sensibilities. our refineries are not working despite billions and several years of lies, no one is held responsible. Since, officials of NNPC has refineries abroad, they wont want our own to work. How can you keep such people in office? |

L mrvitalis:You are always talking as if you are addressing your village people. Cement is not cheap anywhere in West Africa yet we are seeing other brands of cement here in Abuja. In fact, cement is being imported from Niger and it's still relatively cheaper than Dangote cement. Am not defending FG nor condemning Dangote but to burst your myopic opinion on politics and economy. You've got some learning to do boy |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by Biodun556(op): 6:18pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
danzaki63:Massive importation of cement will make dangote cry 😭, and massive job loss |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by DMerciful(m): 7:05pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
Propaganda. The chagourys do not need to buy cement from Dangote. They can import Biodun556: |

Zxcvbnmghtr:Sir/Ma, the wealth will bother you imagine investing $20billion dollars on a project and some people are trying to frustrate you .. You will be worried now I guess the refinery happens to be Dangote retirement plan...Lol that kind thing! |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by Biodun556(op): 7:26pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
DMerciful:Import cement for a whole 700 kilometers road all concrete You try |
| Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by Zxcvbnmghtr: 7:34pm On Jul 23, 2024 |
Oluwateemzy123:He had or may still have plans for a steel refinery. It's not his retirement plan. My point exactly is how life is an irony. |
