michlins:
he sited his refinery in a trade free zone for a reason

And NNPC insisted on 20% shares for a reason.

payaseriy:
Compensation list of loyalist

Then you haven't bothered to read. Half of those judges have sat on cases and opposed APC candidates.

michlins:
petrol will not be cheaper but it's expected that the pressure on our forex will reduce and the monies used to purchase something else.


Wahala will be if Dangote asks us to buy his products in dollars

He can't do that. FG go nack him head 4 by 4.

Norsemann:
Greedy man


Na why you knack BUA cement with law suit because he wanted to sell cement at 3500


Carry refinery go put for Lagos wey no get a drop of crude


Bloody money launder

Why do you people hate Dangote so? This man is a great Nigerian! For your info, refineries are best located in port cities - for obvious reasons. And for your further info, Lagos has huge amounts of crude where did you get the idea that Lagos does not have crude??

We're not doing enough.

Supplying 950,000 barrels to a 650,000 a day facility means we want to refine for one week and stop.

Come on Nigeria! Let's get going!

Ozommadu:
Staged interview abi??

Why have they not called him for more interviews since he loves speaking at interviews??

Oh, you were the stage manager abi?

You should be asking the likes of Arise and co.

Ozommadu:
Why has he refused to comment on the mal administration and insecurity in tinubu's govt?? Because he's yorub? But he can talk anyhow about obedients??

Every of his comments is based on a particular question put to him by an interviewer. Has any interviewer asked him about this government and he refused to answer??

Bobloco:
Then what are we still doing as an entity

Let's balkanize this country

Biafra is already on it way to becoming a great nation

Oduduwa and Arewa can remain in their one and indivisible Nigeria

Agitate to your governors and senators. They are the ones that have access to power.

Ozommadu:
Yeye dey smell


Where's Wole soyinka?? I refused to believe that such a learned man is a tribalist, it beats my imagination

How is Wole Soyinka a tribalist? You are clearly the one who sees everything through the lense of tribe. YOU are the tribalist.

11doubledee:
I chose not to comment because if you see where these so called masquerade harras shop owners for extortion or flog the hell out of people who don't give them money,you won't pity them.
But we don't know what actually transpired.

Exactly. These masquerade types tend to be a nuisance.

Xwizard:
this is wrong, he has done nothing wrong

You witnessed the whole incident? Or how exactly can you tell that he did nothing wrong?

Nice2023:
How...it means u like suffering.

U come to Abuja eh...living here is serene and absolutely beautiful.

No noise.

Complete opposite of Lagos.

I visited Lagos not so long ago and my impression is that there are areas of Lagos that are like Abuja and there are areas of Abuja that are like Lagos.

My Ikoyi - Lekki - Ikeja experience was generally pleasant. Not much different from Gwarinpa /Wuse/Maitama.

Similarly, Nyana/Mararaba and others may be closer to the hectic areas of Lagos.

Postinor:
I am 6'3 in height and I am 19 yrs of age. I usually feel too tall when I walk around my age mates and what makes me feel insecure the most is when people start saying that I am long.

Tall people out there, how do you survive? I also hate it when people stare at my height when I am walking in the street because I am the kind of person that likes being conspicuous and unseen.

At times I just wish I wasn't so tall, so I would like to know at what age does one stop growing in height?

Inconspicuous.

Buharidgeneral:
Good move by the FG

Why would you quote the entire OP just to say good move?

JONSYN7154:
the guy is an undercover agent.

We have them during our school days.
I was able to fish one out and he gave me a sterne warning not to expose him when he came to see my father un his office.

An undercover agent won't behave like that. The goal is not to be noticed - this guy actually made himself so noticeable, which is why someone still remembers him and his name till today.

The undercover agent is likely to behave as ordinary as possible. The only way an undercover agent might make himself noticeable is if his mission depends on it. For example, he wants to penetrate a secret cult - but even then he will behave normal in the context of normal cultists.

You wouldn't remember him for being a strange human.

mysticwarrior:
The isreali army uniform is antiquated and looks awkward.

You think uniforms are meant to be pretty? Their uniform is designed to fit their operating environment: the desert/urban areas. Camo is useless in both.

God1000:
please can you prove it, because he's at loggerheads with this APC government

You are a very funny person. At COP all participants come under the banner of their country. He is one of the 1411 or whatever number of Nigerian participants.

But as i've tried to educated you dull fellows, not all persons under the Nigerian flag are sponsored by the fg.

bigpicture001:
Naija and nepotism....imo state govt told him.govt wouldn't b buying innoson if ge doesy locate plant there for locals employment....man has to build plant in everystate to get patronage from each state government..

naija is not a united country aswear

Well that is not necessarily bad. The State has to look after its own citizens first so why would they spend state money to grow another state when they could easily add a condition that would also benefit them?

Think win-win!

Yet some will cry that business cannot grow in Nigeria. Well, the mind produces what it is capable of.

Well done to Innoson!

Life is about give and take. He did well and hope they continue on the same path. Beautiful!

crossfm:
Hehehe.

Nigeria is a funny country.

In 2023 a governor is asking you to measure rice in cups and you are thanking him. What is really going on in this country.

Instead of the governor to put measures to put a stop to the cheating and fraud going on in the rice mill,he chose to take the easy part.

Countries are taking rice productions to another level,and we are here still fighting about how to measure rice.

So if one need rice in trucks,he will wait for them to keep measuring it with cups. We really need to wake up and stop praising our leaders for every wrong steps they take.

Are you sure you understand a single thing that was said in this article??

Lol.

airsaylongcome:
I might get "killed" for this, and much as I love both states, I don't think Edo and Cross should be classed as part of the ND. Ondo doesn't have a tributary of the River Niger in its territory so shouldn't be classed as ND even though it has a sizeable Ijaw population on its Atlantic coast. Imo and Abia states gets classed as ND in the NDDC which I don't agree to.

Did you accidentally say Edo instead of Ondo? Just asking because you started with Edo but the follow up is about Ondo.

Well you may have a point but in the realest of terms, these State borders are arbitrary. In terms of cultural, hisrorical and ethnical identity, for example, can you really separate Edo from Delta or Akwa Ibom from Cross River?

So perhaps the geographical Niger Delta is a myth but the cultural Niger Delta is real.

Sangoamadioha1:
And you think the refineries just collapsed in one day. It was mismanagement and greed over the years that collapsed the refineries.

Oga, the destruction was ongoing in the 90s.

Everything is clearly spelled out in the write up. Instead of making wild speculations just read.

He was MD in the early 90s. The refineries continued to work well for decades after, though, at that time, the problems were already there which, as he explains, largely come down to inefficiencies of the government, with monies meant for maintenance coming too late and in incomplete quantities.

He further explains that in his time they took steps to solve this on their own by engaging in other commercial activities.

Now if you have read all that and still disagree then fine. Provide your own version of the facts amd explain what rewlly happened.

yemex04:
I agree with you...the Oldies can be funny..Pele of Brazil,Maradona,Zidane etc Most of us never needed to watch them play live before we know they were far greater than their peers..But we see Ronaldo & Messi & I am not sure it is open for debate that they were greater than the likes of Pele, Maradona,Zidane etc..Coming to Nigeria,Osihmen is on the verge of being Nigeria greatest Striker or Player in history..He is the first Nigerian to be ranked highest in a Ballon D'Or..To know all these we needed not have watched them play..The Stats are there.

Exactly!

Sangoamadioha1:
This man is part of people that destroyed our refineries. He was MD of two national refineries and they collapsed.
Now government is fixing one, he is not happy.
God over them.

He was MD in the 90's when they actually worked. They collapsed between GEJ and Buhari.

soccerlite:
Lolzzzzz

Oga you don't know rufai

The fact that you don't appreciate football played in the 80s and 90s shows you don't know football

In the time of rufai, Enyeama can't even be in national team, do you know rufais competitors

Even Enyeama height can't make him be in the Eagles

What are Rufai's achievements? Height abi? lol.

airsaylongcome:
I'm from Delta State and never refer to myself as "from the Niger Delta". That's a contraption that includes too many places that don't have any delta of the River Niger.

Enyeama is an Akwa Ibomite. That's more honorable than Enyeama is a "Niger Deltan". People from the Okavango Delta don't refer to themselves as "Okavango Deltan". Neither do people from the Nile Delta say "I'm Nile Deltan"

Fair enough. What places do you consider not to properly belong to the Niger Delta?

airsaylongcome:
South-South. Theres no region called Nigee Delta region

Really doesn't matter what it's called tbh. These names were manufactured by some politicians. Now we don't go around calling ourselves south southerners...we identify as Niger Deltans so pardon me when I say we are from the Niger Delta region.

fabolouz1:
The irony is the clean sheet came to an end when his team mate scored an own goal.
Kudos to one of the greatest export from Africa to Europe.

That was deliberate. I am convinced it was deliberate because I was actually expecting it to happen.

uniquetechng:
I started watching football in 1986 and I watched all three keepers in their prime, did you watch Rufai when he was still in Belgium before moving to the Netherlands ?

There's absolutely no need to. That is like asking if I watched Maradonna play to know if he was great or not. These opinions of "old timers" who refuse to understand that the modern game has developed far beyond what you watched in the 80's are frankly hilarious.

Peter Rufai does not have anything near the level of achievements Enyeama has which include practically single-handedly winning Nigeria an Afcon.

airsaylongcome:
Which means he is “omo Igbo" to people from the southwest. For them, all of us non-Yoruba southerners are Igbo

Which still doesn't make him Igbo. He is a Niger Deltan by region.

uniquetechng:
Not even the best in Nigeria history let alone Africa except you started watching football in 2012.

So who was better in Nigerian history? Let me guess, you're about to say Peter Rufai or Aloy Agu abi? Lol!
