Both Uwazuruike and Nnamdi Kanu are bloody scammers who are out to liberate themselves from poverty in name of fighting for Biafra.
Unfortunately thousands of Igbos have fallen victims to these yahoo yahoo freedom fighter.

Army headquarters not an army barracks or base. This is basically an office not different from a federal ministry.

“He told the president that if the EFCC must proceed with its probe, then it has to do so with compassion and fear of God.”







Look at the statement I highlighted above and tell me if the cocaine lover called Tinubu is not a big THIEF... Just see how a supposed "Jagaban" is shaking and convulsing like an epileptic patient because he's afraid of being exposed by a young Abdulrasheed Bawa.

I am so delighted that the AGF has seen what the future holds for Nigeria if the Thief called Tinubu mistakenly becomes the president, hence the need to probe him and possibly lock him up.

I have never been a fan of Tinubu, and I want to use this medium to call on those boys here on Nairaland who Tinubu empowered with a plate of Amala and Ewedu to come and rally round the brown teeth drug baron and give him support in this trying times.

This image doesn't prove anything. Just a random image of people gathered together and you called this an exodus.

Dangote alone revived the moribund and decayed ANNAMCO in Enugu when he invested N63 billion in the South East with the purchase of over 3,500 trucks.

He not only saved and revived ANNAMCO, but he also created jobs and expand Enugu's IGR base.

......but of course, Dangote is the man a lot of misguided bigots, sad and negative people and misguided trolls love to hate.

When was the last time any of your so-called massive SE billionaires invested N63 billion in the SE?

When was the last time they saved one of the dead and moribund industries and hundreds of jobs?

Or the hundreds of thousands of Nigerians set to gain employment and put food on the table via the world's largest single-train refinery shouldn't see employment because it's a monopoly?

Should the hundreds of thousands of Nigerians already collecting paychecks from his several companies also resigned since it's a monopoly?

How is it even a monopoly when we have several entities in Nigeria openly making and selling the same thing Dangote is making and selling?

We know your concern has nothing to do with anything but your usual hatred, bitterness, and anti-Nigerian sentiments and as usual, it's nauseating and shallow.

. I was
Suprise to see Dangote cement here in South Africa selling for R60 equivalent of about N1800. The man is an evil man. They better divide this country let everyone goes their separate ways.

Godarz:
1.There are over 20 licensees for refineries in Nigeria, out of which 4 are active. What Dangote is suggesting will also include these guys, including his arch rival and enemy BUA...

2.Secondly, you did not read the article...



The suggestion is when the said refinery is undergoing TAM....then imported fuel could be used to meet up with demand..

Of course, restriucting import to refinery licencees is bad economics...but it won't just benefit Dangote.

Fixey:
It's so annoying. And that people don't see the potential danger one few hands managing the economy of multi millions is what's even more worrisome. They will call it hate

Why can't we have free commodities and products markets for goodness sakes

Dangote Group has suggested for inclusion in the Petroleum Industry Bill a provision that the licence to import petroleum products should be assigned only to companies with active refining licences.

The company, which is building a 650,000-barrels-per-day refinery in Lagos, said this would encourage investment in local refining.

The Chief Strategy Officer, Dangote Group, Aliyu Suleiman, in a presentation during a visit by members of the National Assembly’s Joint committee on PIB to the project site, highlighted several recommendations by the company.

He said, “Nigeria is exceptional in being a major oil producer with near zero refining capacity.

“Though the Dangote Refinery will help address this, there could be periods when petroleum products may need to be imported, such as when the refinery is undergoing turnaround maintenance or if demand grows to exceed capacity.”

The company recommended that the backward integration policy should be applied in the downstream petroleum sector to encourage investment in local refining.

“To support this, licence to import any product shortfalls should be assigned only to companies with active refining licences. Import volume to be allocated between participants based on their respective production in the preceding quarter. Such import will be done under the DSDP scheme,” he said.

According to Dangote Group, fuel imports into Nigeria are of very low quality, and this has harmful effect on health.
“It also impacts performance and durability of vehicles, especially high performance cars. ECOWAS members (including Nigeria) signed a declaration in February 2020 to adopt cleaner fuels,” it said.

The company suggested that to safeguard the health of Nigerians, imported petroleum products must conform to the Afri-5 specification (50 ppm sulphur) in line with the ECOWAS declaration of February 2020 on adoption of the Afri-Fuels Roadmap.

The company described the provision in the PIB for third-party access to pipelines as a source of concern

“Section 113(3) mandates the regulator to ensure third party access to facilities and pipelines for midstream and downstream petroleum operations. It is not clear how this would work but it means that a third party could potentially request to use any excess capacity at the refinery, fertiliser or trading facilities,” it said.

The company recommended that if this must be retained, the provision should be for tariffs to be on a willing-buyer, willing-seller basis, adding, “Bill currently attempts to provide a formula for calculating this.”

Refinedbeing:
That last picture looks like somewhere in Korea.

Iegendhero:
Why can’t Peter Obi, Atiku, and etc also carry placards and protest against the arrest of Kankara boys?

Can you show us where major PDP bigwigs, Peter Obi, SE governors are also carrying placards to support bring back our girls then?

If the above doesn’t exist, then why should Tinubu also protest against his party in the public?

Why is Okorocha and Ogbonnaya Onu also not protesting? Are they not among the founding members of APC? Why are you not calling them out?

Monogamy:
Why do Igbo people always have solutions to others problems but don't have a clue about theirs.

You people should mind your region and let SW mind theirs.

Tinubu this , Osinbajo that, Yoruba those, are you people not tired?
