The marketers have enjoyed their subsidy largesse long time without thinking of building refineries for Nigerians. Let them go

At least, the marketers will get the correct 33,000 liters and not what has been sold at Ogere and Ibadan till gate.

That cement price is above 10k today is the. Fault of the government bad policies that devalued the Naira ...The average price of a bag of cement has always been $7.50 and it hasn't changed , what has changed is the value of the Naira ..same thing with flight tickets , the average 1 hour flight in Nigeria has always been around 100 dollars and it's hasn't changed

The marketers are devils. They should have been the one to build the refinery instead of Dangote but they were carried away by fuel subsidy.

Why didn't they think of coming together to build a refinery since, instead they prefer milking Nigerians through importation, sebi their eyes don clear now, no free money again.

This have nothing to do with tinubu reform


Dangote has his own plans.



If he can monopolize the market, Nigerians will understand that this man doesn't sent anyone.

See how we suffering to buy one bag of cement.

The only way left to compete with Dangote is by Building a world class refinery to rival his refinery.
His long term game plan is hoping no one will be able to own a functional refinery as his, so he can bring in his monopoly agenda. Anything short of this won't make him to bat his eyelid.

No one built a refinery in the last 30 years to fill the gap. He doesn’t have to hope.

Noted.
This is applaud able.

Hope things get better for the future generations.
Instead of the future generations, do you think that things would have been better for the present generation if APC didn’t play politics with our country in 2012?

How many years, or even months did it take Glo to crash the price of telecom services after PDP’s deregulation of the sector? Was it up to 13 years? Or was it up to two years, which is less than the time Tinubu hit the ground running, promising to crash the price of petrol.

Buhari’ll reduce petrol to N40/L —David-West

FORMER Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Prof. Tamunoemi David-West, said that Nigerians should expect sharp drop in petrol price from the current N87 to about N40 per litre, saying, “the president-elect, Gen. Mohammed Buhari, will reduce the fuel pump price to N40 per litre.”

Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC

January 19, 2015

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.

On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.

But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.

It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.

Well let's see how this pans out in the long run... But let's not forget that Aliko Dangote is a capitalist and didn't start this business to lose... Before y'all get happy

If they want to compete, let them build their refinery here in Nigeria just as BUA, Lafrage and Mangal have built cement factories to compete with Dangote cement.

Do Coca-Cola, Nigerian Breweries and Unilever start their business to lose? They all distribute their products themselves across Nigeria. It will be suicidal for any company to depend on another for distributing their product.

My point is more focused on the 'free delivery' part, it's more of a temporary fix, Dangote will increase his fuel price soon to cover up for loses after this excercise and so will fuel price go up again.

Infact its my prayer he monopolizes fuel distribution, what as Nupeng and Nnpc ever done for Nigeria that even meet common sense

Is it not collabo with the uselezz FG to suffer the masses every december, for decades they had sole distributorship what good did they do ..

they creat artificial scarcity, divert n resale subsidize fuel to neibouring countries
these clowns never for once reduce price on distribution cost

So why should any Sane person be bothered, what worse can dangote do that can pass what FG/NNpc/Nupeng collabo have suffered Nigerians
Re: Dangote Begins Free Fuel Deliveries To Marketers by Jerrywhite77: 2:44pm On Sep 20, 2025
I think Dangote is playing a long game here.
Step1: Reliability. People relies heavily on his products because they are better and cheaper.
Step2: Frustrate competitors and put them out of business cos they can't match his price and his products.
Step3: Corner and monopolize the market.
Step4: Raise the price and make unbelievable profit.
I'm dropping this here so when it happens, I can say I told u so.
Re: Dangote Begins Free Fuel Deliveries To Marketers by Didijiji: 2:47pm On Sep 20, 2025
why are we jubilating


Has this reduced fuel price in ANY WAY

If you are jubilating you need to have your head checked

This is a wonderful and welcome development from Dangote.
Re: Dangote Begins Free Fuel Deliveries To Marketers by Realdeals(m): 2:58pm On Sep 20, 2025
But the price has not changed, it should be 841, but most station are still dispensing at 865.

I still don't believe this delivery is free... He can't afford to. Make them free..

It has been added to his cost of fuel


Maybe the fuel should be sold for 780, who knows.. he is the refiner, he is the price setter, he is the everything!

Lucky him
It's free market. That's the advantage of deregulation the APC administration put in place. You are free to refine your own fuel and sell at #70. Dangote can sell at any price he wishes and same with you if you build yours tomorrow. It's like the Glo versus MTN per second billing war of the 2000's
