  1. The Dangota refinery experience in Nigeria tells how dangerous Nigeria as a nation is. The leadership of Hausa-Fulani/Yoruba elite has not augured well for the ordinary men and women in the country. It is all about corruption, personal interest, and calculated sabotage. What a zoo and when will this ever end?

  2. To those saying this is Federal Govt blackmail, you're probably right.

    But even if this is Govt backed sabotage, why do you pity Dangote knowing he's been the head of the snake leading the sabotage of smaller businesses that he viewed as competition when he was in the sugar business and cement business?

    So, you keyboard warriors, where was your outrage when he was using the same government to stifle and force close his competitors back in the day?

  3. The worst part is about having Malta 🇲🇹 refinery owned by Tinubu stealing most of the oil refined by tinubu’s children 👧 with so much money 💰 to resell back to Nigeria 🇳🇬.What a corrupt way to make money 💰 from cheating Nigerians oil companies by the same people in power.Nigeria is still a sovereign country with immense national wealth.But the truth is the robbery is unrelenting against this country of Nigeria 🇳🇬 feeling so bad about implications from all around the world 🌎 of corruption and 😮😂.

  4. Alhaji Aliko Dangote is the only Nigeria that, in my knowledge, has the capability and capacity to turn Nigeria futunes for good as THE PRESIDENT OF FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA.

    Among the elites, he is the only person who loves Nigeria and knows what he is doing (in the order of MKO Abiola).

    We lovers of Nigeria should beg this man to come and rule over us as PRESIDENT with Peter Obi as a VP.

    I am a Yoruba man and have nothing against Tinubu but he has shown that he does not have what it takes to lead Nigeria to the promise land (or at least, with the speed we expected).

    I know Dangote is never interested in politics but with sufficient persuasion and mass mobilization, we might be able to persuade him.

    He has the skills, the knowledge and wisdom, the strategy and so on. Just like MKO, he is detribalised and loved across the nation and beyond. He is pan-Nigerian and pan-African.

    His business empire cuts across the nation. A tribalistic northerner would have sited his refinery (which represents the whole of his worth) in the North for safety reasons but because he believed in Nigeria, he was objective in the strategic location of the huge investment.

    Let all well-meaning Nigeria join in lobbying him to join the race for Nigeria presidency.

    Though, I understand he may want to refrain from politics in order to safeguard his investments. But I believe that with wider support and lobbying, he may consider the idea.

    I don't know him, I have never met him and I don't think I will ever meet him and I don't even need to meet him. But those who know him and close to him and that want the best for Nigeria should lobby him to consider helping Nigeria and help run the affairs of this country and rescue it from the vultures (i.e. Nigeria career, dullard and extremely wicked politicians).

  5. Major oils never want Nigeria to have its own refinery … they will pay the corrupt Nigerian government to sabotage its own national interest and keep Africa in the state of darkness. What a pity

  6. I'm 48years old living in California, I'm hoping to retire at 50 if things keep going well for me. Bought my first house last month and I can't be more proud that am i now. I'm glad I made great decision about my finances that changed me forever but now I can't seem to make any other smart investment.
