I have said it over and over again. Both FG and Dangote have blame in all of these

But I want Dangote to win. That refinery will help our economy. Let's leave politics aside.

If dangote refinery will guarantee Nigerians quality diesel and pms, better than what is currently being imported then I hope he gets at least 70% of the Nations market share.

You mean dangote completed a refinery of this magnitude without ensuring how he would source his crude, there is a serious problem with his supply chain management team.

Former governor of Ekiti state Fayose has said it this is a politically motivated protest, the plan is to force a regime change by some disgruntled cabals in the North...

I hope Nigeria still has some oil blocs onshore or offshore which can be sold to Mobil, Chevron or Total in exchange for their current crude oil production. They can work out the discount rate to be applied to the oil blocs. This will ensure Dangote gets more than the required crude oil for his refinery. This is a simple solution out of this.... NNPC does not have enough crude to supply to Dangote Refinery.

Even the dead are not allowed to rest in peace..

Uranium222:
It is not enough, let NNPC supply the 15 cargos which is the full capacity of dangote refinery. How can we be an oil producing nation and not be able to supply full capacity of an internal refinery?
Stop selling any atom of our crude to any foreign country, let the masses enjoy the full benefits of the nation.

Why did Dangote with zero experience in the oil and gas industry build such a gigantic refinery, the answer is simply to kill any form of local competition.

Now that Dangote will pay Naira for crude supply, Nigerian get ready for a pleasant shock from Alhaji Dangote

Obierika:
You can't just wake up and sack all of them in one fell swoop!

Can you tell General idi Amin this.. Let's thank our star that we are not in the military era.

No more mouth watering dividend for shareholders.

How do you expect a whole Tinubu of OandO to be receiving pms and diesel from a newbie in the oil and gas sector.

Dangote is a green horn in the oil and gas sector, he either agrees to a sharing formula with the cabal which is usually a 60:40 arrangement in the industry or watch as they turn his refinery to a push and start.

I think the problem is sharing formula. The cabal may want a sharing formula importation 60% dangote to supply 40%.. I want to believe this the crux of the matter.

Obviously the cabal are arm twisting the FG not to extend fuel subsidy to Dangote. This is likely the real issue.

The world of international oil politics is also govern by certain unwritten rules, Dangote is beginning to learn the bitter truth.

It's about to get messier.

Oga Dangote without being part of the cabal you can not build such a refinery.

Curious345:
Adeleke should dethrone that scammer immediately

Ade who? Sadly you can't give what you dont have.

I guess the IOCS learnt from the Merchant of Venice Cement.

Codes151:
can you imagine. This is why I said one man cannot own a refinery especially when it has to do with our resources.

I blame nigeria for being so stupid.
A refinery they should have like 5 today but sentiment and tribalism didn’t let them. Due to location.

Today look at this thief.
Nigeria own 7.5%?
Na the audacity. This is fraud. This country is a mess.

Dangote has given Nigeria 7.5% and u dey vex, be grateful and thankful. If we continue to annoy Alhaji, he will simply buy the remaining 7.5% and leave the Giant of Africa with 0.0%.

gigfx:
People looking up to Dangote refinery as the Nigeria savior, please how market.

People dont know that Dangote is part of the game plan.

RhinoChest:
With these failures by NNPC?

Port Harcourt refinery should be working by now!

Also, give Dangote the required crude he needs at international rates to supply locally. The Nigerian gov won’t lose revenue doing that.

Once Dangote starts supplying all our local needs, subsidy even if brought back, it would be cheaper than what we pay to international suppliers.

The subsidy should last until CNG and solar charging spot for electric cars and lorries are installed across the country. Sun is free, the solar charging infrastructures can be installed in some filling stations, together with CNG.

The effects of subsidy removal won’t be felt if alternatives are available in mass quantity. If I bring electric cars to Nigeria, Nigerians will buy in quantity if only the charging spots are ubiquitous. Food transporters will also buy electric lorries, making the cost of food prices cheap, but how will they charge it? Diesel price volatility is partly why there is food inflation.

The President should make the energy problem a multi pronged solution. Diesel, PMS, CNG and Solar charging spot should all be available, after which you can say “to hell” to subsidy.

An effective rail system between north and south is enough to lead to massive reduction in food prices. Will the cabal in the transport and oil sector allow for the development of such rail system?

I hope you know that Dangote hates competition, so he is not lamenting over the never ending date for the completion of the ph and warrior refineries.

"CNG subsidy to gulp 5 trillion" ..NA
This I have seen.
Don't call me a false prophet

SmartPolician:
Osinbajo a lawyer. He cannot do anything.

If I ever become the president of Nigeria, I will hire an American economist as my coordinator of the economy. Give him terms of service, pay him good salary and give him targets.

Such a person won't have any vested interests and will go against evil men destroying Nigeria's economy. If he doesn't meet my expectations, I will sack him and send him back to his country.

Lovely solution, even Dangote trusts the running of critical parts of his companies to Indians, Chinese and other foreigners, he only leaves the paper pushing stuffs to Nigerians.

Benwallt:
What does he do for a living ?

He is a broker.

FireUpNow:
We never feel Dangote petroleum products impact for Naija

U go feel am like Dangote Cement.

We talk, drop comments move on until the next ritual killings. Come again repeat the same cycle.We are all obviously confused or somewhat unknowingly complicit. Ritual killings is not only a Nigerian issue but is wide spread across Africa. Maybe there is a curse on Africans.

This has become a recurring decimal... to abolish ritual killings we must do away with all forms of traditional practice... and you will be surprised how this land will start flowing with milk and honey.

Enemyofpeace:
Remote control at work

A possibility that cant be ruled out. Based on my own personal experience.

Building the biggest refinery in Africa but yet allowing lapses in safety standards is simply not good enough.

Hopeful this would serve as a wake up call for a complete review of safety protocols at the refinery.

The message is this live your life to the fullest

God bless your new age sir.

If not the lust for power it is high time when you are offered to he an oba, emir or sultan you will decline to avoid embarrassment from power drunk governors.

Yes no plan to leave Nigeria and also no plan to develop Nigeria.
None of the IOCs could jointly deliver a major refinery, increase power generation, etc. They only came to loot Africa's resources

What Emiefiele illegally acquired is what the Nothern Big Boys will call pocket change.
