Stupid Nigerian mentality. Government should ban importation of anything Erisco into the country. He's looking for foreign exchange to operate a local industry and we all know Nigeria is experiencing foreign exchange scarcity as a result of low oil output and prices. Business environment in Nigeria is harsh and requires total patriotism to resist temptation of going to already developed countries like China.

This man is a forex thief how many machinery do you want to buy. You are an agricultural company that depends largely on raw local materials..... tell me what does he need dollars for.

Hmmm
Hmmmm

What is their strategic plan? To export those items from China to Nigeria or to have the Chinese consume them?

If the former is the case, how do they intend to fund the import of the finished product from Nigeria if they couldn't fund import of raw materials. if the later then I doubt if that business will thrive with the same mentality in that clime.

In all, I believe this news is just an attempt to blackmail the government.

The president has said it all, those who want to leave should leave.

You know our brothers with playing victims cards, I see many of them claiming Dangote was given access to dollars for his refinery but they overlooked the fact that Dangote Tomato factory stopped production too not quite long. Dollars cannot be provided for every Dick & Harry, you know how many billionaires would be created at the detriment of the economy?

Besides, politics and business is all about interests, when GEJ was there, you people were busy running around for his reelection bid forgetting your economic interests like things like this but Dangote seized the opportunity of his co-Aboki being in power to further his interests. Our brothers are poor politicians.

Did u see this part? Or u have selective reading disorder? Are the enumerated concerns in the op not obviously designed to frustrate his business? So should he fold his hands and pull out of business because Nigeria is having selective forex challenges? Have u read anywhere that Dangote cannot access forex? Why not require d FG to encourage indigenous manufacturers? Dirty Afonja!
