Dangote is building the world’s largest refinery in Lagos. Lagos was chosen by Dangote after it was revealed that crude oil deposits had been discovered in Lagos. Why then is Dangote constructing a deep-sea pipeline that will link crude and LNG from the ND to his refinery in Lagos?

Dangote is building the world’s largest refinery in Lagos. Lagos was chosen by Dangote after it was revealed that crude oil deposits had been discovered in Lagos. Why then is Dangote constructing a deep-sea pipeline that will link crude and LNG from the ND to his refinery in Lagos?
The honest truth is that Lagos has no crude oil. The only reason they gave Lagos that fake status is so that Dangote can site his refinery there will sourcing crude from the ND.
Even operation Crocodile Smile which saw parts of Lagos and Ogun being bombed was part of paving the way for Dangote’s pipeline. But the useless Afonjas cheered the Hausa-Fulani bombardment of their communities and peoples.
The only reason Dangote is building a refinery in Lagos is because he hopes to build another pipeline linking Lagos to as far away as Cote’dvoire and he is hoping on getting subsidies from the FG in lifting crude from the Niger Delta.
The Deep-sea pipeline project is to boycott the troubled areas of Warri in Delta, Ondo and Ogun states that have seen pipeline vandalization in the past.
By opting for a deep sea pipeline, Dangote is hoping to secure crude supply to his refinery for onward shipment across west Africa.
Also, in the event of Nigeria’s balkanization, Dangote hopes to secure his refinery as he knows the North will not relinquish the SW.
This is Operation Araba part 2!
