they should find a way to come to terms. the villagers might not be wrong to say they want to lease the land instead of selling but they will still gain it even if they sell the land to him. job opportunities, I believe the community will be developed due to influx of workers

Sorry Damgote. Nupe people simply wanted to lease the land not sell which you disagreed.
Now you have to go lick your wounds quietly
Now that he's packed up, let them lease the land to bandits

RUBBISH!

BUA and Flour Mills (GoldenSugar) are all part of this BIP program....
The BIP is open to ALL sugar refiners in Nigeria, to incentivize them to replace imported raw sugar by growing sugar locally.

>
Why hasn't BUA closed down any business?
Dangote closed down his flour mill and now his sugar company... Any business he is not allowed to run alone he struggles. He is no business man.

Dangote did NOT close down his flour mill...
He sold it to Olam International (the multinational food conglomerate) at a tidy PROFIT.

Dangote is also NOT closing down his sugar business...
Dangote Sugar is a publicly-listed company on the NSE. It is only closing down one out of its FOUR sites because of a protracted land dispute.

The company obviously does not need the headache when there are other potential sites available.
This is no different from the international oil companies who have mostly exited onshore fields because of protracted militancy.

Meanwhile, there’s NO business that Dangote “runs alone” in Nigeria...

Cement: BUA Group, Lafarge (the world’s BIGGEST cement producer, in Nigeria since the 1950s/60s), Ibeto;
Sugar: BUA Group, Flour Mills (Golden Sugar), Josepdam, etc;
Tomato Paste: GB Foods (multinational in more than 55 countries); Erisco Foods, Tomato Jos, etc.;
Oil Refinery: NNPC (4 refineries). Orient, Waltersmith, more than 28 licenses granted BEFORE Dangote;
Petrochemicals: Indorama (Singapore-headquartered multinational), Warri Petrochemicals (NNPC), etc.;
Fertilizer: Notore (with Orascomm, and the IFC as key investors), Flour Mills (Golden Fertilizer), Kaduna Superphosphate, etc.; and

Land tenancy is a big problem in Nigeria, not only for agriculture, but also to industries.
.
I once witnessed a wealthy investor stressed beyond measure on land dispute after he has erected his factory building and commenced production, despite having procured his land through legitimate means.
.
At the end, he was held to ransom by some of the community leaders with enough local thugs. He had no option than to bow down to their will by paying double the initial land fee, imagine he isn't as wealthy to get more cash settlement... Land tenancy is a menace to industrialization
.
Its time to use blockchain to manage land contract

Smart contract is the future, though still at its infancy. It will take time much more for governments that have prejudice toward cryptocurrency

You and google sha grin

Google didn’t tell you that Dangote’s largest threat in fertilizer is Indorama. Ba? Let’s see how he can succeed in fertilizer and petrochemicals that Indorama has a tight grip on.

Google didn’t tell you that Waltersmith is not focusing on PMS but Kerosene and Diesel. Ba? So how can they be in the same market as Dangote that will largely be in PMS? Only a mad man will want to build a modular 10k bpd refinery to compete with a 650k bpd mega refinery that will produce more than the total demand for PMS in Naija.

Did you ask google why nobody went into refinery before Dangote? Google won’t tell you that it made no sense for any oil majors to build a refinery in a market where government was regulating prices. Google didn’t tell you government deregulated the downstream sector just to favour Dangote who wouldn’t have touched that sector otherwise.

Google didn’t tell you that in Cement, Tomato, Rice, Sugar, government had to ban imports to make the sectors favorable for Dangote. Dangote would never had succeeded in those sectors without the help of government. Same government that allowed incumbent companies to compete with imported products before Dangote.

Just thought to give a puppy a little more education than it will find on the internet grin

Is Kaduna in Niger State? What has Kaduna got to this with this particular land dispute?
Do you hear of any issue with Dangote Tomato Paste that is doing outgrower scheme in Kano?

The fact this is the only site out of the FOUR Dangote Sugar sites means the issue is PECULIAR to this site.

Meanwhile, while admittedly I cannot claim to have all of the intimate details of the Zimbabwean farmers debacle, the core of their business remains active and viable in Kwara State, and is in fact the state’s biggest and most visible agricultural venture. Nonetheless, the parts of the initial land grant that was reportedly taken back from them, is currently underutilized and mostly fallow (I guess the political farmers are gone).

Yes! There were issues with Dangote tomatoes out grower scheme!
Also, the land was given to them free, with other incentives! You are talking of CBN incentives. Did Saraki offer same incentives to local farmers? If any land initially given to them was taken back, it was taken back by same Saraki that gave them!
