Atedo Peterside: 'Why Open Border For Dangote & Refuse Others?' by NwekeUG(op): 10:15am On Nov 10, 2020
Border Reopening: 'Why Refuse Others And Allow Only Dangote?' - Atedo Peterside To FG

"Nigerian Economy Is Rigged In Favour Of A Handfy Of Well-Connected Persons" - Atedo Peterside Frowns At Reopening Border Only For Dangote


Nigerian entrepreneur and investment banker, Atedo Peterside, has kicked against the Federal government's decision to grant only Dangote cement access to export and import items across the borders, IgbereTV reports.

Recall that 10 months ago, the Federal government closed borders with neighboring countries including Benin and Niger to curb smuggling and boost local production. Bloomberg reports that the Buhari administration has given its authorization for Africa’s biggest producer to export cement to Niger and Togo in the third quarter for the first time in ten months.

Reacting to the development via his Twitter handle, Peterside said such a move is why some Nigerians argue that the Nigerian economy is rigged in favor of a handful of well-connected persons.

''Allowing legitimate exporters & importers to move their goods across the border should be a no-brainer. Why refuse everybody else & allow only one company (Dangote)? This is why some of us argue that the Nigerian economy is rigged in favour of a handful of well-connected persons''

Dangote has been riding on govt support and favourable policies since far back. No be today.

One wonders if Dangote would be Dangote without govt bias.

They blocked that border to favour the agric based north and I am not surprised they are granting certain individuals right to export across same border.

Since 1967 when the idiotic southerners joined force to fight Ndigbo and Biafrans, the northern elites have regarded the southerners as fools and nobodies.
Re: Atedo Peterside: 'Why Open Border For Dangote & Refuse Others?' by thunderfirebubu: 12:24pm On Nov 10, 2020
Everything in this country is done to favour the north. Closed the borders in the south and left that of the north open. Now open that of the south to only a northerner. I tire for this country aswear

The most annoying thing about all this is that when a southerner gets the presidency now see how he will turn his back against his people trying to please the north


I'm waiting for the day a southerner will make majority of his appointees southerners

We too like to please north

Now FG has exempted Dangote from border closure, I’m waiting for yall to come tell us how his business acumen is Harvard material since cronyism is a strange concept to them.

Soon yall will tell us MC Oluomo’s knowledge of the transport business is Yale material.

Bush babies!

Buhari had 3 agendas in mind the day he assumed office as nigerian president,they are, 1 develop and empower the north, 2 develop and empower the north ,and 3 , develop and empower the north.
Re: Atedo Peterside: 'Why Open Border For Dangote & Refuse Others?' by tot(f): 1:09pm On Nov 10, 2020
I can bet if you place this Dangote in any other society where the rules are fair and equal, he wouldn't be able to compete. "Richest" black man my foot - richest at the expense of the true entrepreneurs who don't have the same competitive advantage. Mschew.

what logic can buhari and his zombie squad use in explaining this, dangote is not more important than other business owners And Nigeria does not belong to the north

Dedetwo:
Since 1967 when the idiotic southerners joined force to fight Ndigbo and Biafrans, the northern elites have regarded the southerners as fools and nobodies.
I wonder the type of humans we have in southern Nigeria. Despite all the way the fulanis are treating them, just accuse an Igbo of any crime and you'll see how they quickly forget their losses from the fulanis and rather focus on Ndigbo even when the said individual might be acting alone. I wonder if it is witchcraft at play or if it's a mental problem.
Fulanis have killed scores of people from all regions in Nigeria. They've threatened all regions to surrender their ancestral lands or else face unrelentless attacks but yet no backlash has been visited on them. They've sacked almost all the ethnic groups from core federal positions and replaced them with their own people yet same southerners will still cling to their oppressors. Buhari publicly threatened bloodshed before the 2011 election and when he failed, youth corpers all southerners were slain on national assignment. He wasn't even arrested nor interrogated. Rather, he was rewarded four years later by the same southerners to become a president. How then do you expect such a man to view the southerners? Of course he'll have no iota of regard for them. Today, the organisers of the end SARS protests are being witchhunted and yet politicians from the South remain quiet. Tell me; if these politicians can't speak for the organisers of a peaceful protest, is it when the youths from the South go it violently that they will stand in their defence? Let the children of the politicians see how much of a waste their parents are for the preservation of the South and not cry foul when the youths demand of them their own pound of flesh.

If this is true , then it’s pure favoritism. It’s no longer a plain playing field for all.
