THE BEAST OF NO NATION

[Slim @onu_slim]

Why Mike Adenuga is responsible for Glo’s decline.

Glo’s decline has one author, and it’s Mike Adenuga.

He runs Globacom as both Chairman and CEO, the only founder among Nigeria’s four major telecoms still doing that. MTN, Airtel and 9mobile separate those roles on purpose, because no single person should hold that much unchecked power over a company this size. Adenuga refuses to let go. Every decision, every direction, every dollar still runs through one man.

In 2024 he brought in Ahmad Farroukh, a genuinely capable executive with an MTN and Smile Communications background, to finally professionalize the place. Farroukh lasted two months. He clashed with Adenuga’s grip on decision making and left. That’s not a coincidence and it’s not bad luck. That’s a founder who cannot share control, even when sharing it is exactly what the company needs to survive.

The instinct that built Glo in 2003, fast personal bets, with no board, and no pushback, is the same instinct strangling it now. What worked for a man in his prime taking risks on a young market has become a liability for a man in his seventies clinging to a mature one. He never built the institution underneath himself. He just built more of himself into the company.

So when the NCC’s 2024 subscriber cleanup hit every telco, MTN and Airtel had the fibre, the 4G investment, and the balance sheet to absorb it and keep growing. Glo didn’t, because Adenuga hadn’t been reinvesting at the pace his rivals had. That gap didn’t appear overnight. It’s the result of one man making every call for two decades and slowing down while the market didn’t.

There is no succession plan because Adenuga won’t build one. There is no governance structure because Adenuga won’t allow one. There is no room for outside leadership because Adenuga won’t share the chair. Glo isn’t declining despite him. It’s declining because of him.

Economics is an interesting phenomenon.

About this Dangote news I saw, its funny.

So if Importers are buying Dangote PMS to bring into Nigeria, whose fault is it really? or is there really a fault when incentive drive execution?

If an Importer believes its profitable for him to buy Dangote product in Lome and bring into the country and sell at a price lower than what Dangote is selling locally, then let them do it. - CONSUMERS benefit.

If Dangote's PMS price is lower than any other import, then nobody is going to waste his money bringing product into the country.

Whatever the case, consumers are going patronise filling stations with the cheaper price.

[Kalu Aja @FinPlanKaluAja1]

Clearly, Dangote's pricing and discount offers are creating an arbitrage opportunity for Nigerian PMS traders.

Those Nigerian traders are also using Nigerian dollars earned from Dangote exports to import PMS exported by Dangote back into Nigeria.

Crazy.

[Oloye. @Ol0ye]

Dangote is selling fuel for cheaper to Togo than it is to Nigeria.

Dangote cement is cheaper in Ghana than it is in Nigeria.

Nigeria provided the cheap USD, raw materials and policies that made these businesses possible.

Why are we getting the shorter end of the stick?

Mr. Wahab,

Impact is felt, not explained in 1,578 words.

Your plastic policy has failed.

Your environmental policy, if one truly exists, has been ineffective.

Your waste management policy has been an unmitigated disaster.

The only area where you have consistently delivered is the demolition of the hard earned properties and livelihoods of ordinary citizens.

Not to mention your Bigotry and Gaslighting.

You have lost the moral authority to remain in office.

You should resign.

Today.

When Liam Neeson was offered the role of the villain in A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014), directed by Seth MacFarlane, he agreed in part because of a Family Guy joke in which Peter Griffin says, "Imagine Liam Neeson in a Western! Ha! With that funny accent of his!" The joke later inspired Neeson to take on the Western role while keeping his distinctive Irish accent.

China educated ALL rural children before it started building the massive infrastructure

Nigeria was ahead and richer than China in terms of GDP per capita from 1960 to the late 1970s; this was not because of oil, it's because Nigeria educated everyone for free

No economy on Earth has grown without an increase in education spending. There is a positive correlation between educational achievement and GDP per capita

You can argue, or you can do your own research

Federal government wanted Abia state to have only an airstrip but Alex Otti told them to give him the airstrip money and he will join Abia state’s miney to make it into a full international airport . 😂😂😂😂😂

[Alex Otti @alexottiofr]

Today in Lagos, I had the honour of unveiling two newly acquired Boeing 737-800NG aircraft by United Nigeria Airlines, named in recognition of two exceptional sons of Nigeria: the late Professor Chinua Achebe, the globally celebrated literary icon, and His Royal Majesty, Igwe Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe, CFR, the Obi of Onitsha.

I commend the Chairman and Founder of United Nigeria Airlines, Professor Obiora Okonkwo, for this thoughtful gesture of immortalising individuals whose contributions have profoundly shaped our society. Honouring excellence and service inspires future generations and strengthens our collective national identity.

The acquisition of these aircraft is a testament to the growing confidence in Nigeria’s aviation sector and the resilience of indigenous enterprises. I also applaud the Honourable Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr. Festus Keyamo, SAN, for his reform-driven leadership and commitment to creating an enabling environment for private-sector participation in the industry.

I particularly welcome ongoing efforts to strengthen local airlines through innovative initiatives such as aircraft leasing arrangements, which will enhance competitiveness, improve access to aviation assets, and support sustainable growth across the sector.

I also appreciate the Minister’s continued support for the Abia Airport project. I am pleased to report that work on the runway has reached an advanced stage, and our administration remains fully committed to delivering a world-class aviation facility that will expand economic opportunities, improve connectivity, and position Abia as a strategic hub for commerce and investment.

I congratulate United Nigeria Airlines on this milestone and wish the airline greater success as it continues to contribute to national development, create jobs, and strengthen Nigeria’s aviation industry.

Congratulations once again to Professor Obiora Okonkwo, the management of United Nigeria Airlines, and all stakeholders whose vision and dedication made this achievement possible.
