[00:00:00] and partnerships that could further strengthen Nigeria's economic [00:00:03] outlook. We're still to come on business [00:00:07] Nigeria, we'll be understanding issues around the Middle East peace [00:00:11] talks, the implications for Nigeria's oil and [00:00:14] a gas industry. My next guest is the head natural resources, [00:00:18] of climate governance is with Bogit Foundation, Mr. [00:00:21] Enebi. Join us after this break [00:00:24] of for that conversation, don't go [00:00:26] away. [00:00:37] in [00:00:51] All right, glad to have you back now, [00:00:52] in middle east peace talkks and fresh tensions are shaping global old prices [00:00:56] with direct consequences for Niger's economy, few cost and revenue [00:01:00] outlook, now as diplomatic efforts rise and fall between key [00:01:04] players in the region, crude market continues to react to fears of [00:01:08] supply disruption and [00:01:10] of possible breakthroughs. at the center [00:01:11] of the issues are concerns over strategic shipping roads like the state of [00:01:15] amose and the red sea which are critical to global energy trade. [00:01:19] any threat to these corridors can increase shipping cost, insurance premiums [00:01:23] and create uncertainty across the oil market. for [00:01:26] Nigeria's fluctuation in global crude oil prices present b. unities and [00:01:30] challenges for the oil and gas sector, while higher prices may boost government [00:01:34] all earnings, a decline triggered by peace deals could reduce [00:01:38] expected revenues and after [00:01:40] uh fis and affect fiscal planning. now the impact is also [00:01:44] felt by consumers as Nigeria's reliance on imported petroleum [00:01:47] products means global price movements can influence pump price [00:01:51] locally, but with increased domestic refining [00:01:53] of capacity and efforts to attract investment. experts say Nigeria has [00:01:57] opportunity to strengthen its energy position, and reduce exposure [00:02:01] to global shocks. my next guest is the head natural [00:02:04] of resources and climate governance at budget [00:02:07] foundation. it's been a while, it's good to [00:02:10] see you. thanks for being on the program this friday, mr. [00:02:14] of ok, good to [00:02:15] of see you [00:02:15] to to be away, thanks for having me, pleasure to be here. yeah, [00:02:19] with renewed piece talks in the middle east, i want you to tell [00:02:23] us how could the easing geopolitical [00:02:26] of tension of affect global oil prices and what does that mean? [00:02:30] for Nigeria's all revenues, foreign [00:02:32] of exchange earnings and the 2026 [00:02:34] budget. All right, thank you very much. So in terms of [00:02:38] how um geopolitical tensions, I think I think that car is b [00:02:41] already uh [00:02:44] in we already we know the connections between um the fact that a large portion of [00:02:47] crued oil sales [00:02:50] of traffic goes of through [00:02:53] hormones the which [00:02:53] straight you mentioned earlier your uh [00:02:55] in introduction 30% of global of [00:02:59] sea going. oil [00:03:02] um 10% cool of global coil supply goes through that street and so and [00:03:06] of then other commodities that use that street as well also affected so there's a whole rip [00:03:10] effect of how [00:03:11] of that conflict has affected economies across the country across the world [00:03:15] including our country nigeria consequently [00:03:19] crude oil price rises oil price rises um [00:03:23] overall final price of refined petroleum like petrol [00:03:26] diesel aviation f the r I'm sure the [00:03:30] last four five months [00:03:31] of have been a testament to how these prices have affected [00:03:35] logistics, transportation, flight, [00:03:38] tourism and production as well. In Nigeria, we've seen the [00:03:42] dance before the war started, petrol was selling [00:03:46] for slightly above 800 n per liter, and then at [00:03:50] the peak [00:03:50] of the conflict, it rose as high as [00:03:54] a 1,30, even 350, depending on the part [00:03:56] of the country you living, right now. It's it's [00:04:00] so it has been a dance between that um window, I think since the world [00:04:04] started has not gone below 1100 n per liter and [00:04:08] so that translates into daily transportation, [00:04:12] daily logistics cost and then cost of products, anything [00:04:16] that's to move from one place to the other will [00:04:18] rise, commuters transportation has risen by [00:04:22] 50% over this period um so I think [00:04:26] Nigerians are not new to the impact of how... [00:04:30] "the conflict in the middle east has affected their lives and it has [00:04:33] contributed to some [00:04:35] of the issues that we see uh today, I'm sure there are [00:04:39] several reports that will be uh that will be [00:04:42] produced after this and conflict after this conflict [00:04:46] has ended in terms [00:04:47] of the impact is has on socio economic and lives of people [00:04:51] across the world, even in developing nations. with regard to how the [00:04:55] peace talks have evolved uh, that has been another [00:04:59] dance as well." um, we've seen, we [00:05:02] currently there seems to be hope that [00:05:07] of the war might end soon, but we've been at this point more [00:05:11] many times than... we can count where we are the brink [00:05:14] of deal or the brink of easing tensions or even easing tensions [00:05:18] and then something happens one party pulls out both party [00:05:22] pulls out we start striking each other and then everything [00:05:26] deteriorates to where we are so at this moment [00:05:29] for producers and businesses across the world are very cautious about [00:05:33] pricing the the emerging trends or [00:05:37] the current trends how what [00:05:41] should so if you over price if you over price [00:05:45] the um the benefits or the games you might be get caught so as of [00:05:49] now i think oil has jumped jumped [00:05:52] 10% and 8% in the last couple of days uh [00:05:56] but for now there seems to be hope there are talks between [00:06:00] Iran and oman although the outcome is not fully [00:06:04] certain people are hopeful Iran wants more control US [00:06:08] has lot of demands oman is trying to bridge that gap there are issues whether [00:06:11] US involved or he is not involved, there is lot of [00:06:15] uncertainty right now, but I think right now everybody is being patient [00:06:19] to be sure that the current talks are going to yield [00:06:22] fruitful and lasting results that you cannot be confident to [00:06:26] plan, plan business and plan uh economies and plan [00:06:30] development. a good depth, must say into the [00:06:33] issues. now if the peace process leads to increase all production say from the [00:06:37] middle east uh producers could nigeria face sther competition [00:06:41] in the global crude. market okay, so right [00:06:45] now there are a lot of activities happening at the same time, it's [00:06:49] quite, so supplies from russia are [00:06:52] because Ukraine has had some successful attacks against [00:06:56] Russian oil production, so the Russian production is a bit [00:07:00] volatile right now, there's no, there's no sense as to what Russia can [00:07:04] add to the current global supply of [00:07:07] oil, the extent of what the peace talks will [00:07:11] be determine how much traffic can go [00:07:14] through [00:07:15] and then determine how much can come out the middle east either [00:07:19] way i think um it's it's it's we've seen how [00:07:23] that has benefited nigeria we've seen where during the height the [00:07:27] conflict the danguty refinery has ramped up [00:07:31] production i think about last one or two months ago they were pressing [00:07:34] 5% their capacity meaning they were pushing their cylinders [00:07:38] at full throttle and so um [00:07:41] obviously Africa and some other countries have become alternatives to supply the [00:07:45] world with um what the world with [00:07:49] precious um energy commodities now as [00:07:52] to how that will affect Nigeria they have [00:07:56] spot the are gains obviously direct games but how much we [00:08:00] can make use of those games [00:08:04] uh is quite uncertain and I think reports that will be [00:08:08] released by the government will tell us lot better but if [00:08:11] to based on what we've seen or what what has [00:08:14] happened uh so uh obviously [00:08:18] Nigeria's production has increased I think by about [00:08:22] maybe over the last six months maybe 10% [00:08:25] right last last the last report says we did them in [00:08:29] terms of crude oil 15 1.55 million barrels per day if [00:08:33] you add condenses over 1.7 million bar per day [00:08:37] that's an increase from where we are two three months ago uh but you know all of that [00:08:41] code does not be belong to the country, lot of it belongs to [00:08:45] private producers, international oil companies and the indigenous oil companies [00:08:49] and so based on the contracts we have joint ventures PS, there a [00:08:52] share of code oil that goes to Nigeria and shame of [00:08:56] cost oil or joint venture agreements, now based on that share [00:09:00] of nigeria sp is where we can get direct good sales, [00:09:04] previous administrations had already used a share of those crude [00:09:08] oil as the oil back loans, so we have [00:09:12] at least between between 130 to about 25000 barrels per [00:09:15] day estimates, i'm not certain, but at least at least [00:09:19] 13500 barrels per day has been used as 125, [00:09:23] us as the other loans i can't really see how [00:09:26] much crude oil has been computed so because of [00:09:30] that [00:09:31] the are the are the crude oil available to the [00:09:35] country to get as direct sales will be is affected let's just say [00:09:39] if if you w to do a rule of term calculation just give say [00:09:43] 30 to 35% of total production is what comes to the country in terms of [00:09:47] direct [00:09:47] good oil access that we can sell and get direct s from and so we are a bit [00:09:51] limited as to how we can maximize but however uh oil producers [00:09:55] oil oil companies that are making additional sales we also pay [00:09:59] their taxes per profit taxes and so we expect to get [00:10:02] increased um revenue from those streams oil [00:10:06] companies across the world are already reporting um good um [00:10:10] numbers on their books so i think from those from the taxes [00:10:14] we get from them we should get some goodses so yes for Nigeria is [00:10:18] both is mixed bag we tend to get some gains to the the [00:10:21] extent that we can maximize those gains is quite... I'm setting at the [00:10:25] moment, beyond data, yeah, beyond global [00:10:29] all prices, um, what for you, your thoughts are the biggest challenges [00:10:33] currently facing Nas oil and gas industry uh, from crude oil [00:10:37] production, pipeline security, you've talked about increase [00:10:41] production, investment and refining capacity, [00:10:45] uh, how do we balance all of this up moving forward, [00:10:48] so I think one the things that um, the [00:10:52] country has been trying to address is increased in. of [00:10:55] confidence, i think the last two years has made [00:10:59] some good results, um, the president [00:11:03] has as you [00:11:04] all well know have has um released some executive that has [00:11:07] smootined a few things with oil [00:11:10] investors um the are basically investor [00:11:14] confidence and then that looks at our macroeconomic indicators looking at our [00:11:18] interest rates for business and exchange rate exchange rates subsidy [00:11:22] has removed so that in terms of market market. stabilization that has been [00:11:26] dealthy, but exchange is also has been liberalized, so [00:11:30] investors [00:11:30] are not afraid to pull out their so, so for the [00:11:33] upstream, we've been hearing reports that there's increasing [00:11:37] confidence in investment since the subsidy was removed, we had [00:11:41] additional investments in dowshing sector, at least in terms of distribution [00:11:45] of oil and gas products, people are much more confident [00:11:48] to sell um refined petroleum and not be [00:11:52] on coffe by by exchange [00:11:55] rate uh and then the biggest issue or [00:11:59] the most sensitive issue be the exchange rate and i will give an [00:12:02] example um just quite recently a couple of weeks ago the [00:12:06] dangoter refinery said [00:12:08] it was not going to supply um cloud in naira [00:12:11] again and but that was quickly addressed [00:12:15] by the federal government and you know that one the reasons [00:12:19] our nara has had less pressure internationally is [00:12:23] because we are no longer but so we're importing so [00:12:27] much um so much um petrol, in fact [00:12:30] if you look at the data from the nmdpra there are [00:12:34] certain um i think for the month of March [00:12:38] or April uh total domestic consumption was [00:12:41] supplied by domestic refineries we did not import any any [00:12:45] petrol and then if you look additional refinery [00:12:49] supply i think there was a month think in may or [00:12:52] so total um 'all [00:12:55] the that was refined in Nigeria was supplied by from Nigerian [00:12:59] producers and so I i think that exchange [00:13:03] issue is something that we need to um watch carefully [00:13:07] and because Dangoti said [00:13:08] it was not going to supply a people jumped in to ensure [00:13:12] that that doesn't happen because by the moment you do that you now [00:13:16] are telling marketers to go search for their dollars and they [00:13:19] come and pay for local products something that we are trying we trying to address and that would [00:13:23] additional pressure on'. [00:13:25] the ner that [00:13:25] against balance the dollar will [00:13:26] then be adjustable thankfully that was addressed quickly [00:13:30] and the dangote refinery has began to sell again in [00:13:34] nir to do that so that means that in terms of [00:13:37] a nira for code um policies that has to be monitored [00:13:41] carefully to ensure it doesn't fall apart and then our domestic code oil [00:13:45] obligations supply obligations also needs to be efficient i think [00:13:49] whatever button x might be happening within the system should be addressed [00:13:53] and is careful but i think the exchange rate is something that we need to [00:13:57] also watch carefully as the country and not just but for every other [00:14:01] area part of manufacturing that has to import intermed products or [00:14:04] inputs from from outside the country and import [00:14:08] anything that relies on the exchange rate is going to affect [00:14:12] the economy and so i think we need to do lot more the [00:14:16] federal government is trying to do something the rate has been quite stable but it's [00:14:20] still high compared to three years ago and that has not [00:14:24] allowed the benefits of some of those reforms to trickle down to the [00:14:28] micro-economic areas and that's why people are still and complaining that ah we [00:14:31] say the country is doing about and i can't feel it i'm see paying [00:14:35] high high prices for foods but so i think we need [00:14:39] to see think cover reforms [00:14:42] to ensure that it triggers down to the micro level households [00:14:45] and need jobs we we have two minutes to wrap this [00:14:49] segment up nigeria has been working to boost domestic refining [00:14:53] through facilities you mentioned such [00:14:55] as the dangote refinery and rehabilitation of state-owned refinery. [00:14:59] now how are these developments shaping Nigeria's [00:15:02] a energy landscape and moving forward, what impact could they [00:15:06] have on fuel imports and energy security? well definitely [00:15:10] energy security is really help, i think very [00:15:14] practical situation is [00:15:15] the current conflict between the US and Iran, if the dangote was refinary [00:15:19] was not operational at this at this point, I [00:15:21] think the the impact on the local economy. much much [00:15:25] higher and couple with the fact we have a high exchange rate, so the fact [00:15:29] that we have a operational refinery in Nigeria that [00:15:33] can bridge that gap, [00:15:35] it has has really helped to cusion. some of that that effect [00:15:38] so yeah that [00:15:40] are that's a practical um that's a practical example [00:15:44] of how um having domestic refining can help or can [00:15:48] support the economy and support the country domestically and shield us [00:15:52] from some volatilities although we are not completely shield that is a [00:15:56] completely another additional discussion for which may not have the time to [00:15:59] cover but i think domestic refining has that [00:16:03] capacity energy security has been showing in this last three to four [00:16:07] months uh, I think um, we we [00:16:10] refine - now exports refined petroleum as well, [00:16:14] so a way Nigeria is now a net exporter of refined petroleum, even [00:16:18] though it's not directly from the government, even though that's not a batting at all, [00:16:22] private sector is very well welcome to filling that gap, so yes, [00:16:25] improving domestic refining capacity, I think what we need to now focus on is to ensure we have [00:16:29] more active players all right, in the industry to ensure [00:16:33] there is um, let me use the word [00:16:36] competition and there indeed, competition. [00:16:40] Mr. thank you so much, head natural resources and climate [00:16:43] governance budget foundation, there's always lot to talk about uh in [00:16:47] our industry. I i hope we'll have you in sometime soon uh, [00:16:51] we will have more time to discuss all of this. [00:16:53] I'll be glad to come back. Thank you very much. Thank you very much as always enjoy your [00:16:56] weekend, you too. All right, th, well, it's time to talk [00:17:00] market up is here to help us wrap up the week up, lot is [00:17:04] happening, but I don't if you've seen it, but I saw it. saw the stock [00:17:08] market team going to visit the president and you gave him the market reports [00:17:12] and all of that, i was excited about that and the future yes [00:17:16] that we are really building [00:17:18] you know towards the one trillion dollar [00:17:20] economy, you know that's idea from the president, the [00:17:24] market you know took it wholeheartedly [00:17:28] very very well, so since then everything has been positioned [00:17:32] in different corners, different sectors, even the reform, look at [00:17:36] the reforms that they are. companies within the capital [00:17:39] markets towards that we have finished that [00:17:43] the recapitalization for the banks and uh last week we [00:17:47] concluded for insurance so that one alone remain and [00:17:50] so we keep going um back to the trading [00:17:54] flow we are seeing very strong [00:17:57] forces of recovery and it's really [00:18:01] important stocks majority them they are on [00:18:04] bits and um the revolution that so [00:18:08] first uh hold co or [00:18:11] populary you know first bank that we know primarily that group [00:18:15] um man is taking very huge [00:18:18] attention from investors uh just as it had [00:18:22] uh it's problem some years ago it's [00:18:26] now the darling the market of course the [00:18:30] bank with the old days history and so we see [00:18:34] first bank um you know driving the... and [00:18:38] oters are following, then the insurance companies that have just [00:18:42] finished the recapitalization, majority them are showing [00:18:45] themself very, very well, so you see them on [00:18:48] both sides the market doing well, talk of mutual benefits, guiney [00:18:52] insurance, lasaco, there are so many and i think [00:18:56] that um in the new dispensation many people will begin [00:19:00] to appreciate insurance markets and the activities, [00:19:04] they they now have huge funds and they will... prove [00:19:07] according to what some their professionals have [00:19:11] said, so we wait to see, perhaps we will have a [00:19:14] situation where Nigeria will rank [00:19:18] with other countries where [00:19:20] insurance products are highly [00:19:24] priced, of course we stop this idea of [00:19:27] grading insurance below banking, which is [00:19:31] reverse in many other economies, so [00:19:35] I think that um we need to watch out what we have from the insurance [00:19:39] sector, i like the way that they went through their [00:19:42] recapitalization quietly, like the banks, the [00:19:46] banks always flash, i know they [00:19:50] have resources, so you won't blame them, [00:19:53] so is they did very quietly, all right, i [00:19:57] think only about eight companies, [00:20:01] visiting them,com will still be watching [00:20:04] them, on the whole, i think they did better. Yeah, [00:20:08] I think the successful success [00:20:11] in their activities, so now we see [00:20:15] trading, what we are asking is with these huge funds [00:20:19] that will be coming from the sector and the banks, what kind [00:20:23] of businesses would they be doing, where would they put [00:20:26] their funds, how would they be able to [00:20:29] you know help the economy to grow by supporting small [00:20:33] scale businesses? Those are the questions that they not need. [00:20:37] to provide the answers for and if they do that then [00:20:40] the economy should begin to [00:20:43] you know expand as for the capital markets i [00:20:46] think um we are ready for business. [00:20:51] so what's your projection, now moving on now, my projection is that i i [00:20:55] this half year remaining from now until [00:20:57] december gna see huge [00:21:01] threads on the floor already have [00:21:06] very reports you very impressive [00:21:06] know from many the sectors and on [00:21:10] the back of that many people are taking positions [00:21:13] in so many huge talks you know [00:21:17] thinking that uh november december they may be able to [00:21:21] have kill go to the bank and make more [00:21:24] profits from their investment and who says even our [00:21:28] brothers, sisters from the diaspora, they are increasingly [00:21:32] participating in - our market and that is a [00:21:35] plus for us, because it takes away the [00:21:39] window of [00:21:40] you know waiting too long for foreigners to come with their dollar and [00:21:44] any moment they go back, so it's like when we take Nigerians that [00:21:48] are living outside. plus do the big [00:21:52] companies like insurance companies and fund managers that are playing [00:21:55] here then you know that about [00:21:58] 70-75% the market you know is being [00:22:01] dominated by domestic [00:22:04] you know players because Nigerians abroad you can [00:22:07] you know equate them somehow as a domestic and they would [00:22:11] be [00:22:12] you know sympathetic to whatever happens here [00:22:15] than you know rare foreigners either from Asia or [00:22:20] Europe, but all in all, you see [00:22:24] that our markets is really, [00:22:26] you know, breathing just like any other big [00:22:30] markets, forget about the volume that they have in New York [00:22:33] or in in Tokyo, but in [00:22:37] terms of profitability, the investors in the Nigerian [00:22:41] market, they are being highly rewarded, at least in the [00:22:44] last three years we've seen what, and with the type of companies [00:22:48] that are coming in, It means the future is uh quite [00:22:52] russy.
