You mean an oligarch ?

@@manestrengthandcourage7121 This is the first educated comment i've seen here. Only in Nigeria will people praise an oligarch. It's all PR. Dangote is the biggest oligarch in Africa. Also in bed with all these corrupt politicians helping them wash their dirty embezzeled funds. smh...

@@obiohagwu788 Africans, we have a long way to go ,most of us don't understand contemporary politics and economics around the world.

@@obiohagwu788 it’s like everyone is blind in the country, there’s not enough exposure as big as the country is, and we are swift in praising the same slave masters and oligarchs when they commence a "projet"

Its time to buy Naira. The balance of payment will tilt in their favour.

👏👏👏👏👏

Wayne Nigerians are proud of you too. My friend here want to be Rasta and learn Jamaican English.

Our DNA bro, am not a Nigerian but am Pan-African & am proud of you too

MAKE IT HAPPEN BELOVED... IN THE NAME OF OUR ALMIGHTY MOST HIGH, BELOVED ANCESTORS, ANCIENT ONES & PROGENY, IF IT IS TO BE, IT IS UP TO WE!!! OUR BELOVEDS' SACRIFICES HAVE ALREADY PAVED THE WAY FOR US TO REAP WHERE THEY & WE WERE FORCED TO SOW!!!

we really are

Which vision? What happened to the country own refinery? Dangote is one of the problem we have in Nigeria I only blame the toothless Nija Deltan’s

@@aluskysystems1129 Do you mean that DANGOTE should be stopped from building refinery? Did DANGOTE took away the contract you are suppose to have? How much money did he take from Nigerian government bank account? What was his last government office or position? Should he stop building refinery and take his money to foreign country and hide it?

@@aluskysystems1129 There they go again. There is nothing like Deltans, but distinct tribes, And the Ijaws and Isekiris who are the indigenous owners of Escravos are not complaining. I'm certainly sure you're not from delta north, as our Anioma brothers and sisters are too smart to make stupid comment like yours on a beneficiary project to the people of Nigeria.

Speak for yourself okay, a nation that ganged up against everyone just so one fulani man can become the richest in the continent it's called monopoly and it's a crime

Thanks brother ..

Thanks 🙏 🇳🇬 🇯🇲

.You feel proud watching one of Africa's biggest problem being celebrated? This man was the sole importer of cement in nigeria and now his cement cost over $9 per 50kg bag while the cost around the rest of the world is less than $4. He has deep ties with all the corrupt government that has enslaved the nigerian people since the days of military rule. Nigeria has 4 refineries that corruption in govt has crippled and now all of a sudden this same man is building a private refinery to monopolize the oil production and then make a huge profit from hiking the retail price to poor Nigerians. There is nothing to celebrate here. This is corruption 101 being celebrated

I feel at home watching Jamaicans in KZfaq 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

@@Big_Gbola Do your findings before making bias comments. There other people doing cement and oil refinery in Nigeria . Get your self educated by ensuring your facts are evidence base

BUA is copying him word for word, project for project. If he builds refinery BUA will follow, if he enters cement bua will enter, he did sugar BUA did, he did fertilizer BUA did

Amen amen

Amen. 🙏🏿

you don't do thing to prove that you have brains too. why feel inferior. Development in other more responsible nations was due to necessity not that they wanted to prove brains. Building a refinery is now very classical and require no additional technology development. everything has been done decades ago by others. just copy it and paste and it need no brain. it might interest you to know that those manning the technical aspect of this plant are foreigners. Almost all the nigerians working here provide mostly the needed muscle and not the brains proving again the stupidity of our government not developing capacity through efficient educational curricula. it is shameful that a country like nigeria whose gdp is 95% oil and gas generated is building a refinery through a private person in 2021.

Well said my brother 👏 African bad leadership are the major problem 🙄

i surely am proud he's african

Exactly! If anything, he should be an inspiration for us youths.

Facts!!!

Dangote is a legend, he will be remembered as the father of Nigeria's industrialisation, he should be an inspiration to any sensible nigeria who understands economics. I wish him well, may he continue to grow from strength to strength.

@@adedelalu no doubt. History will remember him for All the good reasons.

Bro this is to long 😢

Those with money we never do because they prefer quick money through import. Look at ajaokuta steel company that is wasting, what stop 2 or 3 Nigerian with money to take off the company from the government to run.

There are others like Dangote, the owner of BUA groups, Olumelu, Otedola and several others. These are people investing heavily in the Nigerian economy.

Same Dangote who conspired with the government to gain monopoly to the supply of cement, sugar e.t.c. and frustrate other business men in competing businesses

@UCi4MOy7r2pgRCU2bEFKMsvA Which are your sources? Nobody makes those products cheaper than him. That Has killed competition you idi*t. When every successful Nigerian was showing off buying luxury cars and apartments in London, Dangote was reinvesting into development and logistic. Stop being bitter and try being like him.

@@emmy9288 And same Dangote is embarking on a transformational project that even the Nigerian government cannot dare!

A bigger Amen to that

Amen o

Now we Need Dangote or any of our Nigerian Billionaires to fix Our Electricity PROBLEM in the Country and another Nigerian Billionaire to fix the Ajaokuta Steel plant. Both Projects will make the Billionaires hundreds of $Billions of Dollars and skyrocket Nigeria’s Productivity Level and Self Sustainability levels.

Aaaameeen oo!!!

They are already there. 2 more Refineries though smaller than this project are under construction in the South East and l believe in the South South by an Igbo guy and also by the owner of BUA groups of companies Rabiu and another Igbo businessman, though the are a lot smaller than Dangote's.

We are moving forward my brother. Let's all do our part.👍

🖐️

Same here brother.

Same here oooo....

I love Nigeria so much and always pray tribalism does not undermine her potential. Dangote is an African icon that deserves celebrating.

All due respect to Dangote, he should lie like that on international TV. He knows very well that since the 70's, more money to the Nigerian government means more private jets for officials. Let it a barrel a $30, $50 or $100, bigger margines, more savings here or less expenses there, Nigerians seems to find new ways to WASTE MONII. Abeg, coma forot, get ur money and prey ! That's all you can do in this country. Even if you provide 1 million jobs today, census go tell you 2 million pikins dey born country nst dei

Ignorant ignorant ignorant everywhere. His refiners will refine water when Biafria Republic is declared. Mad people everywhere.

Some politicians are the ones that only going to benefit from it. The country have been producing crude oil for years, but the citizens pays so much at pump to fill their car. In other oil producing countries petrol seem to be very cheap for the consumers, but in Nigeria their making the lives of their citizens miserable. Dangote refinery is just for some elites with self interest investment. What Nigerians need is 24/7 electricity by investing in solar power, windmills and nuclear power plants that’s what can bring foreign investment back to the country like it was in the 70s, 80s and early 90s.

@@tayobibi thats not how this works, this is gonna trickle down, with jobs, indirect and direct employment, from food, education, logistics, other by products fuel price falling general reduction in price of goods and services and goverment making wealth from it, externally global power regionally and internationally, we can make and break economies in west africa

@@ogasontop The biggest problem in the country right now is the nonchalant attitudes of the people and extreme corruption. People go into politics to make money and not to serve the people that put them in office instead they abuse the same people. I don’t just see any future in Nigeria. The country is falling apart and their requesting for western help. The country have been fighting terrorist for the past 12 years and yet the terrorists are becoming stronger and stronger. That’s a total madness. Military bases are being overpowered by some fractions of the Nigerian military who have joined hands with the terrorist. Politicians are also sponsoring some of this terrorist and none of them have been mentioned nor names to the public because their playing ethnicity games. The northern politicians are our major problems their so deadly and ready to kill has many Nigerians if care is not taken. We have a leader that never for once visited any victim of terrorist, but yet can invite repentance Boko Haram terrorist to Aso rock with his AGF. They know who they are and their the ones sponsoring them. The only hope for Nigeria is to be divided. The northern part of the country is a setback.

@@tayobibi the peopel u are speaking about are nigerians they are not forigners

@@ogasontop I knew their Nigerians. Millions of Nigerians are not happy with the current situation of the country. The country is now the breeding ground for terrorism, kidnapping, extortion, ritual killings and political armed terrorist organisations. All sort is happening Nigeria while some bunch of useless politicians are sitting at Abuja making billions for nothing. I just believe civil war is imminent in Nigeria. It’s about time people fight for their right. The country is never going to work as one nation. This is just British created country for their own personal gains and not for the citizens of the country. Whenever Nigeria is ruled by northerners we are setbacks for another 30 years and that’s what the current illiterate Fulani president is doing to the economy. A leader suffering from Alzheimer’s, he sat down in Aso rock while Nigerians are being lynched by his fellow Fulani tribe coming from neighbouring countries like Niger republic where he originally comes from and Mali and Chad.

How is he solving cement problem? He is cutting the neck of Nigerians.

Find out the history of cement importation into Nigeria and the problems and shortage associated with that and you will come to appreciate how Dangote solved the problem. If not Dangote you will probably be buying cement for 10k per bag today in Nigeria!!!

Nigeria soil doesn't need fertilizer...chemicals fertilizer..we all know who's behind that project

@@vaclyvakanda7675 I am a Nigerian currently living in the US and my father was a farmer and we never applied fertilizer to farm especially in the southern part of Nigeria. You need to think deep about agriculture and the future of farming in Nigeria. For now, the fertilizer is majorly for export to Brazil and America. Dangote is a force for good in Nigeria!!! Expand your consciousness to see the good this man is doing for Africa and the black race.

@@luckyadeloye3452 Nigeria ,Africa doesn't need those fertilizers...it's gonna destroy the soils and we all know that....the solution is in ecology..

Dude that's the spirit, anything is possible as long as we believe and more importantly work hard and smart about it👍

Remove incompetent leader specially the President Nigeria will be better off. Paul Kagame of Rwandan on my mind.

Honestly brother. Hopefully we'll get there. Private Sector is really pushing the Country. Bua Refinery & Petrochemicals, Petrolex Refinery, Lekki Free Zone, $7bn Lagos Free Zone, OCP $1.4 billion dollar Ammonia Plant, $1.5 billion Indorama Fertilisers, $3.1 billion Presidential Power Initiative, etc hopefully this would jump-start the Economy. We just need to deal with insecurity cause it's affects foreign investors perception.

Same here bro

The feeling 🤗

I feel the same way brother.

My blessings are with you sir. This project will succeed and transform Nigerian, Africa and the global economy at large. God bless NIGERIAN. your name is written in gold in the sand of time Mr Aliko Dangote

Right my brother.

Fool

@@oluwaseyifasoye681 how so?

@@phoenixmichel9610 It’s obvious. Make some effort to find out yourself. Don’t be lazy!

@@oluwaseyifasoye681 so you go on social media to abuse/insult people abi? What type of a person are you? Do you have call him a fool because you don't agree with him? Does it then surprises us that Nigeria is what it is today. When l read comments posted by some Nigerians on social media l feel ashamed, disgusted and pained. You believe you have the right to insult others for expressing their views/opinions. And you will say you are one of the educated that have solutions to the country's problem. You respond here show intolerance of others and if you happen to be in the position of power you will behave exactly that way. You will clamp down on freedom of expression no doubt. And if you are referring to Dangote, what has he done for you to call him a fool. I will like to know.

@@oluakinwale4859 well said. People like him are uneducated and can't offer any intelligent argument other than one word insults.

Kudos to Dangote now, kudos to the chief custodian of Nigerians stolen wealth…hummm the day of investigation is coming, trust me 💪

@@omobaoni shut up. Say that to your politicians mumu!

Maybe it's better now, because the latest technology is better, efficient and cleaner than let's say 20 to 30 years ago. Just like your smartphone compared to a generation ago.

@@omobaoni Envy will kill you faster than cancer, please be careful.

@@omobaoni let’s even assume his wealth is stolen,he’s building a refinery that could damn near bankrupt him if things should go wrong,betting everything he has for something that would benefit so many and already is considering how much he must be paying in salaries alone. Others have chosen to buy houses around the world and build their own lavish castles with 20 car garages, and those are the least of their atrocities. I cannot blame anyone for having reservations about any African with money, for decades Africans have plundered their people like no other, but I think at least Dangote deserves to be given some grace for prioritising such a project when many of his peers with far less are living life in a far more self centred manner.

We're going to diversify to renewable energy resources

@@chukwunedugeraldonuchukwu2367 I don’t think so because some elites are making billions selling generators. They’re the real enemies of country that don’t wants improvement, development and small businesses to thrive in the country. Obasanjo embezzled the $16 billion meant for the use of electricity.

You clearly didn't watch the entire video, because at 19:35 minute into the video, it states the power from a section of the plant can power the entire lagos with enough power left over ...and at 26:13 she describes how the gases are captured and used to generate power, rather than disposed off into the atmosphere.

Africa as whole political class hates progress.

Let's just stay positive and contribute in our own little way to the progress being witnessed.

Exactly

I since realized that, there are you "ala-Igbo" out there, objective and good people. But, I most confess, your well mannerism and approach is just too gentlemanly for me. How I wish you, the real Igbos are calling out the Nnwa Osu that never see any good in the effort of non-Igbo Nigerian.

@@wazobiabiazowa228 hmmm....it is the sentiment blocking their sense of judgment until we pass that stage we can't get it right collectively. Nigerians are too individualistic

We........Nigerians are indeed too individualistic. That is why there was another name for the coast when it was controlled by Europeans. Read history and beware. Black gold was extracted for hundreds of years. Individualistic groups traded quite profitably!

Yes, if them no spoil the man hard work. What shame it would be

God bless you

@@aframaco9491 If we had 5 of them, Nigeria would explode economically.

So Koreans who have an interest to Nigeria tell that Dangote Group is the Samsung Group(The biggest businesses of Korea) of Nigeria.

One of the best documentaries I have ever watched. Kudos to Arise TV Team for this great job

@@Kapman247 same here.

There will always be demand for oil in Nigeria because it is a backward country that has yet to attain the industrial revolution stage. Other progressive countries are embracing hydrogen, solar, even hybrid/petrol vehicles, wind and water energy.
