Politics / Re: Cement: How Dangote Offended Tinubu by tommy589(m): 9:20am On Jul 23
Biodun556:
Dave Umahi convinced Tinubu that concrete road is better than road constructed with bitumen that it last longer and cheaper. Then, a bag of was around 3,500 and 4,500.

Tinubu proposed construction of Lagos Calabar coastal highway and passed it in the budget. As soon as the project is about to start, dangote and other cement manufacturers met and increased the price of cement to 10,000 Naira from 4,500 naira that is more than 100% price hike within few days .

Tinubu summoned dangote to Aso rock and demanded why the sudden increase in the Price of cement, dangote could not give any reason, he blamed the price hike on demand. Tinubu made it known that all the cement raw materials are locally sourced and wonder why they increased the price. Then he advised the price be reviewed.

Till now, no significant decrease in the price of cement and the this affects the price of road projects budgeted by the government.

Now, dangote is calling the Tinubu government to stop importation of refined fuel to assist local refineries and Tinubu turned deaf hears.

My take


Nigeria stop importation of rice to assist local rice producers when bag of rice was 10,000 naira. After importation was stopped Nigerian rice producers increased price from 10,000 naira to 30,000 naira per bag, then 50,000, and now 70,000 naira per bag. If you asked them, they will blame high demand.


Definitely it importation of fuel is stopped, local refiners will hold meetings again and start milking Nigerians with habitrary increase in fuel price.

Should dangote even demand for stoppage of importation of refined oil in the first place? After all he is exporting his refined oil and making money.

Blessed Nigerian from the tribe of Yoruba kingdom, this is the reason I won't malign all yorubas for the foolishness of 40% of the them, of which 30% of the 40% are ignorant idiotic muslims and 7% are confused and not aligned to any religion, and 3% are christians. I also curse 30% of Igbos who support the criminality in Nigeria and the 70% of northern muslim, they are senseless.

What I noticed is that yorubas are impulsive, that is they are reactive based on the stimuli triggering them at the instant, they are everywhere and nowhere, they are like babies that you need to nurture and cuddle with breast milk and pamper, it is what you give them they give back, it is why we Misunderstand them as being cowards, they read what you mean at the literal level.

Okay imagine, Soyinka that went to prison because of Biafra, imagine his behaviour now, that is to give you the picture of what I am sayng.
