GloriousGbola: i dont expect it to collapse - it was actually done by professionals this time
however i do not expect it to generate actual value for the investment - especially as it is still in the hands of NNPC who are at best a lethargic, indolent, poorly run government welfare program cosplaying as a business
if a properly vetted and demonstrably competent private entity does not take over operation of that refinery - in the next three years it may be a completely wasted investment
All the refineries should be sold to Chinese.
No Nigerian should own a refinery that they cannot build or maintain.
A competent Chinese company that builds refineries should acquire all.
Ijoba85: I told someone on this platform sometimes ago that Dangote refinery is a game changer in the oil industry , every sickness affecting other refineries in the country would eventually disappear once Dangote refinery gain ground. Kaduna and warri refineries are coming up too soon and you shall hear of no breakdown anymore. The sabotage is finally going to be over. Nigeria is close to her greatness.
MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT THE WORLD IS MOVING AWAY FROM CRUDE OIL TO ELECTRIC CARS.
ONE THING NIGERIANS NEED TO KNOW, THE SABOTAGE OF NIGERIA ECONOMY IS FACILITATED FROM WORLD POWERS LIKE EU UK US, WITH HELP FROM THEIR NIGERIA AGENTS.
DO U GET.
CIA AGENT MAY ACTUALLY BE YOUR PRESIDENT DESTROYING YOUR ECONOMY, ALL THE DOLARS WE ARE SUPPOSE TO ACCUMULATE OVER THE YEARS FOR DEVELOPMENT, ARE IN PRIVATE ACCOUNTS AND IN THOSE COUNTRIES ABROAD, WHERE THEY ARE REFINING OUR CRUDE OIL.
bdon123: Wat am saying is within 1 month d refinery will break down.Nigerians forget to easily.
UNTIL THEN, LET US GIVE HOPE A CHNACE SO WEN WE GO START TO THEY PUNISH SATAN, THEIR TRIBES MEN WILL BE BANNING US HERE AND CRYING ON THEIR BEHALF IN THIS FAKE COUNTRY.
THEY ARE IN US/UK, THEIR TRIBES MAN IS NOT PRESIDENT BUT THEY LOVE IT THERE AND CALL NIGERIA NAMES.
MEANING THEY LIKE GOOD THINGS, THAT ACTULALLY WORK.
bdon123: U are very naive....do u know how many times within d past 10 years refinery has started production n stop in days time?They do this to collect budget for turnaround maintenance.
MAKE TINUBU JUST GET THE REFINERY WORKING NONSTOP TILL 2027.
THAT IS ALL I'M SAYING.
AS LONG AS THOSE REFINER ARE SECURE AND DONT GO OFFLINE, OUR NAIRA STAND A CHNACE OF RECOVERY.
WorkaholicB: . It is not by telling us that the refinery is working, what is in it for Nigerians? Will it's resumption bring about an affordable product or will NNPC start competing with Dangote in shear wickedness and profiteering?
BRO, NOTHING WRONG WITH COMPETITION, THAT IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE.
JUST LET ALL THE REFINERY NEVER STOP WORKING AGAIN.
ANY SECTION THAT MUST BE BUILT UP OR CONSTRUCTED TO KEEP IT WORKING SHOULD BE DONE.
Anthony0094: what took them so long, questions need to be asked
DANGOTE
DANGOTE IS WHAT TOOK THEM SO LONG.
THEY WERE TRYING TO DESTROY HIS REFINERY INITIALLY BUT THE SECURITY WAS TIGHT.
THEY TRIED TO USE GOVERNMENT BUT THAT TOO DID NOT WORK.
THAT WAS WHEN THEY SAW THE MONEY THE MAN WOULD BE MAKING FROM THE COUNTRY, THEY RUSH TO TURN THE REFINERIES IN KADUNA, WARRI AND PORT HARCOURT BACK ON.
THE REAL HERO HERE IS DANGOTE.
THAT MAN JUST EARNED MY UTMOST REPSECT FOR MAKING NIGERIA GREAT AGAIN.
ekhai: Since Babagida thru Abacha and Obasanjo, we've been doing turn around maintenance of our Refineries with huge some of money without results. Let us give it to Tinubu to going against the Cabals. The sign of good things to come.
LOOK HOW LONG REFINERY WAS NOT WORKING AND NOBODY WENT TO PRISON.
MY BROTHER THAT CAN ONLY HAPPEN IN NIGERIA.
IF WE TALK, THEY WILL BAN US, BECAUSE THEIR TRIBE MAN IS PRESIDENT, FORGETTING SAY NOBODY DEY BUY BREAD CHEAPER.
THE MOD HERE, KEEP BANNING MY ACCOUNTS FOR CRITISISM OF HIS TRIBE MAN THAT IS PRESIDENT THINKING I WIL STOP.
ONLY THING THAT CAN MAKE ME STOP IS NEWS LIKE THIS, NEVER BANNING, KILLING OR THREATS.
U GO TO AMERICA, EUROPE, UAE, AND LOVE IT THERE, IS YOUR TRIBES AMN THE PRESIDENT THERE?
IF TINUBU CAN GET ALL THE REFINERY IN THE COUNTRY WORKING, CONSTRUCT ANY SECTION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO ENSURE SMOOTH OPERATION THEN HE WILL ENETR IN TO THE GOODWILL OF NIGERIANS.
WE DONT JUST WANT TO HATE HIM, WE NEED TO SEE PROGRESS TO LIKE HIM.
wirinet: I am sure you are aware of how many over 30 year old spinsters are still living in their fathers house in such tribes. The irony is that ladies from such misogynistic and exploitative tribes refuse marrying from their own tribe.
For your information, I am married from Igbo tribes. My father inlaw ensured I was not exploited by his family nd clansman. I paid what I could avoid at the time. Since then I sponsored their daughter to school and helped the junior sister gain admission to the University.
wirinet: No one is complaining about bride price. Bride price had beeb practiced un Africa and many parts of the world from the beginning of recorded history. It is the exploitation of the bride price to blackmail intending suitors by very few African societies that people are condemning. We Itsekiris don't sell our daughters, and you will find many prominent people married to Itsekiris that gives our daughter utmost respects due to that fact. Many prominent people married to itsekiri ladies include T.Y. Danjuma, Bola Tinubu, Bode George. We need not ask for an arm and a leg in order to give away our daughters to these men.
DUDE MARRY FROM YOUR TRIBE NOW?
THOSE LIST WERE NOT CREATED WITH YOU IN MIND.
THE PEOPLE THAT OWN THAT LIST ARE MARRYING AND NOT COMPLAINING.
YORUBA NO GET LIST NOW, WHICH KIND WAHALA COME BE THIS
wirinet: And that's why the igbos (and NIGERIANS in general) are famed for engaging in all Kinds of illicit activities and businesses to make quick money, ie, fake drugs, hard drugs, 419, fake products, kidnapping, organ harvesting, etc. All in a bid to show off to their poor villagers and clansmen that they have escaped poverty.
Showmanship is a sort of poverty mentality. Genuine wealthy people don't show off. Really expensive designer products for wealthy people don't display the brand name. Only products for "wannabe" rich people display brand names like Gucci, YSL, Balenciaga boldly in front.
MORE NONSENSE!
U POVERTY STRICKEN EBI KPA MI WILL BLAME EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN TO GET AWAY FROM BRIDE PRICE PRACTICED BY ALL AFRICA.
A TRIBE THAT INTRODUCED STMACH INFRASTRUCTURE AS ELECTION CAMPAIGN REQUIREMENT.
hardbody: Seriously how much is N3.5m? Men spend that at a sitting in a club and the suitor self earns in foreign currency? Abeg he should getat. The worst that he can do is pay them, marry the girl and shut out all of the family from his life. That amount can't make not marry a girl of my choice. We spend more than that going to resorts for a 3 days hangout at some of the beaches here in Lagos. Guy should admit he is struggling and hasn't reached a landing yet
THAT IS PRECISELY, THE WHOLE POINT, U MUST LAND FIRST BEFORE U CARRY LOAD FOR BACK

SHUT OUT WHAT?
E BE LIKE SAY U NEVER HEAR SAY DEM DEY RETURN BRIDE PRICE.
NO LET THAT PENNIES GET TO YOUR HEAD, IT IS NOTHING.
U DO THE RITE LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE, U ARE NOT DOING SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT OTHERS DID NOT DO.
BRATISLAVA: If a man complains about the bride price then he can't be serious. His parents paid theirs, but now it's his turn and he has reasons not to, yet wants to eat the full fruit of marriage.
THAT GUY WAS NEVER SERIOUS ABOUT THE GIRL, SOME GUYS PRETEND JUST TO KNACK AND THEN FIND ONE EXCUSE TO PULL OUT.
IT IS BECAUSE THE FAMILY WERE LIBERAL ENOUGH TO OPEN THEIR DOOR TO OTHER TRIBES THAT IS WHY HE CARRIED A LIST GIVEN TO HIM TO SOCIAL MEDIA.
IF THEY SAID THEIR NOT GIVING THE DAUGHTER NOW, TO YORUBA HE WILL SCREAM TRIBALISM, BUT LOOK AT IT.
dominique: Look at what people are defending egbami🙆🏽 So there are no ways the family can use to determine if the groom is financially capable other than imposing this heavy billing on him? The family and culture are greedy, let's call a spade a spade
NOBODY TOLD U NOT TO CONTINUE YOUR YORUBA BRIDE FOOTING MARRIAGE BILL.
I WONDER Y SO MANY YORUBA WOMEN REMAIN UNMARRIED AND SO MANY BABY MAMA EVERYWHERE, WITH THE FREE MARRIAGE RITES.
