mufex: come on, that is not fair...everybody is entitled to an opinion no matter how stupid their opinion is. Don't be cruel!!

taharqa: @Rhinoceros, I SEE you. Viewing thread, abi?? What of that yr other 'donkey' frnd, @Ekoile ati Agbamatatata, na?? ... Na Una go tire

lygn19: 2moro,dz Northerners wud be boasting abt Dangote being d richest business man in Africa...we re now beginning to know were his so called hardwork,and ingenuity comes in... Richest man in Africa when just to build ordinary refinery,d FG is giving him a loan... 2moro they wud be comparing him with Ibeto

mekaboy:


Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooool, this guy u r a mad man. U don win I give up . Haahahhahaahaahhaaha

atlwireles:

Going by your post, you are involved in the oil and gas sector. Please, can you advice this forum, the average number of crude barrels produced in Ondo.

atlwireles:

At least you acknowledge working on $10B projects in the southsouth. You have made my case. Thanks again.

atlwireles:

Urhobo wadoo, I speak for myself.

atlwireles:

We already attract billions yearly. Just ask shell and chevron. You will be quite surprised

agbameta:


How dumb and clueless not to know. Dangote didn't become the richest African man by playing boyscout..

nedu666: the more u look the less u see. i have few questions

1. will the cable importing fuel give way to dangote

2. will govt subsidise dangote and neglect importers

i ask these questions because i dont think pausity of funds is why we dont have functional refineries rather it is vested interest and for dangote to succed he must be ready to fight these interests. which frankly speaking i dont see how he will pull that one.

mekaboy: [s]Well dangote has jst signed the loan he has started nothing yet, I am sure he will want to be sure of the political direction of the country before he proceeds.

He knows what politics is all about and the effect it has on business, he wld not be where he is today without politics.

And for those of you who cannot argue logically or know nothing about business management and project management, you are the ones quick to insult people.

I will suggest you go and read books or do research. If you argument is going to be based or region ethnicity or insults, then we r certainly not on the same level[/s].

mekaboy:

[s]Lol, we r not comparing regions bro, we are simply looking at external and environmental factors that can affect this investment.

As u said ondo and lagos has oil, in the case where things go wrong after the elcection and the niger delta pple blow up pipelines, then dangote will have to start drilling the oil in lagos and lay underground pipes from lagos to the refinery which will take time and additional cost.

Then will the oil production from the lagos and ondo as u said produce enough output to recover the $9b investment in the expected time frame? This will extend the time.

Now if you know anything about a project, you will know that any change to time will affect the cost. Any change to scope will affect cost and time.

Its like going to invest in libya or syria without looking into the political situation.

Ok talking about region attracting investment, the $9 invested, you and I do not have a dime in it yet. So no matter which region you come from, this investment does not put a dime in ur pocket, unless you are employed[/s].

PehaKaso: Dangote is d only detribalised ABOKI in Nigeria, but alas, Nigeria wil not last long enough 4 Dango 2 enjoy d fruits of dis proposed refinery

mekaboy: Dangote should have waited till after 2015 to start this project, because if the cabal frustrate. Gej out of power in 2015, that means this refinery will refine palm oil and groundnut oil. Becuase niger delta will shut down oil production and supply. Jst thinking aloud. Lol

taharqa: My names is taharqa the useless PDP paid internet dog

taharqa: [s]God bless GEJ for improving d Investment climate in 9ja. With $9bn Local investments coming in, Nigeria wud continue to lead Africa in FDIs (including LDIs) like it has done for d 1st time in last 2 years; and, by a significant lead too. Kudos GEJ for his Agric Policy, esp d Refined Private sector-led Fertilizer scheme. Of course, God bless Dangote too......... Oya, I don talk. Waiting for d roforofo fights to start [/s]
