I'm very excited about the impact of this project on the naira exchange rate. Once the naira drops to about #800 due to saturation of the Forex market, the price of petroleum products could adjust to less than #400. This will make a huge difference in our quality of life. I commend Aliko Dangote for the completion of this project. We're not a giant of Africa for nothing. Other African people can now dream bigger..

All we are sha asking is that fuel pump price should come down based on some factors. Dangote got crude in Naira. No freight and custom charges. There are no taxes on the free trade zone. No tank depot charges. No middleman charges. No police/Soldier and all other unauthorised security forces charges. So, we expect all of these to reflect on our pump price ooo. Na beg we beg IPMAN and those waiting to clinge on this low price oo. We beg the soldiers and the armed forces to go and man our borders for bunkering. We are not asking for too much
