Finally, here comes a stiff competition for wicked and monopolistic dangote.
.

If not for Abdulsamad Rabiu strong northern roots and political connections, Dangote would have as usual frustrated him out of business, but today Rabiu is a Forbes billionaire.
.

I looking forward to BUA entering into the Cement market and break whatever left hegemony the Dangote establishment has on the nation.

.

I also look forward to when Nigerians would realise Dangote for the devil he is and attack his trucks nationwide. I wonder how many trucks he can protect.

Nigerians don't read before jumping into conclusions.

I am sure you didn't read before arriving at a conclusion.

bobowaja:
Dangote and his silly monopoly. He can't compete fairly (even against his own people). I use to respect this man before now until I begin seeing him as a greedy individual. He is worst than a capitalist.

Na to deh short-change everyone cos he get people for high places. No be say na so him product good, they just give him the market and push down his substandard goods down on everyone.

Paadi paadi govt.

Did you read

padi94:
Okay I will, there is a type of monopoly known as joint or collusive monopoly, this exist where major players of an industry come together to dominate a market, they set prices.
Of course we know the two ways to control the market is either by controlling price or supply. Which ever one they choose to control is depending on the elasticity, (which is very inelastic) of the market.

So dangote is a Monopoly in the cement industry, he with other firms in the industry come together to set price of their goods... So as to maximise their profit. Why do you think they are al selling at almost the same price. None of them can crash the market, if they try it they will be dealt with through market policies or government policies, since the price is making them more profit, no one is willing to break the pact.

The only way to break the monopoly is government policy.


Ask yourself, who sets the price of cement, why does it go up without provocation

"He with other firms"

Meaning this is a hike by the player's. I will agree with you on this point. The sole accusation of Dangote happens to be where I disagree.

padi94:
This is why America, will use all its political might to fight Monopoly... It's in their constitution to crush anyone or anywhere it finds monopoly.

This Northerners are not Nigerians they just want to milk the south until the south summons courage to break away

Can you please tell us where monopoly plays in the cement industry?

Dangote Cement 4,270 Naira

Elephant Cement 4,250 Naira

BUA Cement 4,250 Naira

UNICEM 4,250 Naira

Ashaka Cement 4,250 Naira

Ibeto Cement 4,250 Naira

Eagle Cement 4,250 Naira


So whats the fuss about Dangote reaping Nigerians off? Cant his competitors crash prices like what we seeing in the Automobile and telecommunication industry?


Its all hate and envy.

Duplexxx:
Na mumu people many pass normal people for naija is why dangota can used that business strategy to benefit

And Ibeto and Lafarge are not benefiting right? Both are selling for NGN100 per bag right?

If you lots are not enlightened enough to know that you can never compare market prices in different countries, then I leave you to wallow in the dungeon of ignorance.

Moreover, Is Dangote mandating you to buy his cement?

jared007:
I can't believe you didn't grab what degamonn explained to you? That guy just wasted his time explaining to you. Bro it's not fair o.

Your personal pain

Osoboshi:
I keep on asking is dangote the sole producer of cement in this country. All this hate because he is successful, tueh.

That is the question yet to be answered! Trying to accuse Dangote and exonerate his competitors who happen to be on same price range with Dangote.

This is just pure hate and envy!

And look at the lame excuse, comparing the price of commodities in two different countries.

your monika has eaten up your oblangata.

Its oblongata, not oblangata

donbachi:
"take the war to him"..when he is the sole buyer of the weapons and opinion leaders are stakeholders.

What weapon are we talking about here?

Is Dangote stopping Ibeto or Lafarge from selling at Two Hundred Naira per bag? So whats the fuss here?

Are consumers compelled to buy Dangote cement?

You mentioned Stakeholders, Is Lafarge and Ibeto no longer stakeholders in this industry?

degamonn:
When issues like this are raised, insulting each other is not the solution. People accused Dangote not because he has 100% control over cement production in Nigeria but he has slightly over 50% and then the remaining is shared by other players in the industry.
The question we should be asking is that;
Is Dangote selling cement in other African countries less than he is selling in Nigeria? If yes, what are his reasons? Better operating business environment? Is he enjoying subsidies over there and it's absent in Nigeria? He should be able to explain to Nigerians.
The last time he attempted to provide such explanation, he maintained that he did not increase the price of his cement and since then the price has been trending upward. So who is behind this?

How can you be comparing prices of a commodity in different countries?

Where is it done? Oh! So MTN need to increase their tariff's cos Americans pay higher monthly? Is that logIcal?

I will still maintain my stance, If the competitors spend more time to be functional and competitive, they can take the war to Dangote. Which I am definitely sure they cant

Are other competitors not on same price range like Dangote? Whats the difference in their prices?

Make sure you have a cold beer and a well prepared plate of cat-fish pepper-soup every evening before going to bed.


Its the least you can do got yourself to be mentaly stable

All other reasonings on the way forward will come to you in that process

Them no born am well not to clarify issues.

It's not every fire you play with.

Atiku/Obi2023 is a goal

Tinubu can go and die. His rodents too.

A cameroonian and Chinese can never rule Nigeria

This is commendable.

Gradually, we are getting there.

Beauty without brains.

And what is Lafarge & Ibeto doing? Sowing Nigerians?

I dont know why Dangote`s competitors cant be functional and take the war to him.

Ibeto should try crash cement price to Two Hundred Naira per bag and lets see what happens.

All this media criticism is outright jargons

In as much as I take sides with you, do t forget the amnesty for Niger-Delta militants. That program will always be used to deliberate.

It was a wrong move at that time, but sad, it will always be refered to.

I believed Marley is a demon no doubt

He is no demon!

Just a marijuana addict whose psychological deficiency sells.

When they get old and useless, they turn to motivational speakers,

After fvcking everything with a peniss inbetween its legs, and getting pregnant, She suddenly becomes a motivational speaker.

That's how Linda Ikeji claimed peniss was not worth it while fvcking it for a living, till she got pregnant.

Calls for celebration!

Where the party @?

tellwisdom:
Can you just shuttup?? Stop using foreign standard on us. She’s old enough??

Can your 18years old sister feed and take care of herself without the help of her parents? What Life experience does she have?

Una go just open mouth de yansh talk

Stop making a point like an illiterate.

The law sees her as an adult. So whats your fuss
