 Kim Jong Un tells North Koreans to 'turn their dogs into soup' during deadly heatwave North Koreans have been urged to eat dog soup as the country struggles to manage a brutal heatwave. A state newspaper in the country published an interview with one of the nation's top doctors that encouraged citizens to start making the highly controversial soup dish. Translated as "sweet meat soup", the article published in Rodong Sinmun describes the dish as offering North Koreans a "highly nutritious" food option that can help counter the symptoms of heat stroke, such as "cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and hyperthyroidism", according to the South China Morning Post. It has also long been believed to cause increased virility in men, as well as boosting immune systems. North Korea's capital city Pyongyang has its own dog meat restaurant that specialises in dangogi guk, with Kim Jong Un known to be a big fan, serving the dish at dinner parties and st...

 Dangote Doubts Revival of Nigeria’s State-Owned Refineries, Cites $18bn Wasted Investment


Aliko Dangote, President of the Dangote Group, has expressed skepticism about the possibility of Nigeria’s state-owned Port Harcourt, Warri, and Kaduna refineries ever functioning again, despite an estimated $18 billion spent on their maintenance. Speaking on Thursday during a visit by Global CEO Africa members from the Lagos Business School to the Dangote Petroleum Refinery in Lekki, Lagos, Dangote criticized the operational inefficiencies of the refineries managed by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC).


Dangote highlighted that his 650,000-capacity refinery allocates over 50% of its output to Premium Motor Spirit (petrol), while the state-owned refineries, even when operational, dedicated only 22% to petrol production. He recounted a failed attempt to acquire the refineries in 2007 under former President Olusegun Obasanjo, noting that the deal was reversed by Obasanjo’s successor, Umar Yar’adua, after claims that the facilities were sold below value. Dangote and his team had paid $750 million for the refineries, only to return them following the government’s decision.


“They’ve spent about $18 billion on those refineries, and they are still not working. I doubt very much if they will work,” Dangote stated, likening their turnaround maintenance to modernizing a 40-year-old car with outdated technology. “Even if you change the engine, the body will not be able to take the shock of that new technology engine.”


His remarks echo former President Obasanjo’s claims last year that the NNPC was aware of the refineries’ operational challenges. Obasanjo noted that international oil companies, including Shell, had previously declined to manage the facilities. The refineries, briefly declared operational by former NNPC Group Managing Director Mele Kyari in Q4 2024, were shut down again, underscoring ongoing challenges.


Dangote’s comments raise fresh concerns about Nigeria’s refining capacity and the viability of continued investments in the aging state-owned facilities.
