Comandclem To Charge $20 Per Crude Oil Barrel
Following the victory it had at the Federal Appeal Court in Calabar last December over ownership of the Anti-Corrosive Special Paint for Q.I.T, the Comandclem Nigeria Limited now is to charge the sum of $20 per barrel of oil from multi-national oil companies that use their product.
Speaking just after an executive meeting of the company in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State Cordinator of Comandclem, Pator Silas Manasseh said that the new charge for the use of its invention would no longer be $2 per barrel, as was earlier speculated, but will now rise to $20 per barrel.
This new arrangement, he said, is based on the new price of crude oil at the international market where the price of Bonny-light now goes for about $77 per barrel, and Brent (Forcado) sells for $76 per barrel.
According to him, “Comandclem will no longer tolerate any infringing company that will fail to comply with the demand of his company over payment of royalties accruing to Comandclem, particularly the mutli-national oil and servicing companies in Port Harcourt.”
For the victory won at the court, the Rivers Statecordinator said that members and patent in Port Harcourt will hold a thanksgiving service to mark the victory, adding that within the period, which will likely be at the end of February, that Comandclem will carry out a peaceful match in Port Harcourt to tell the world about what God has deposited in Niger-Delta, thought he invention, that is benefiting the world today.
Meanwhile, the Lagos branch of Comandclem organised a rally to celebrate the victory at the court, which kick-off at Bar Beach in Victoria Island and proceeded to NTA, American Embassy, British High Commission, German and Russian Embassies, with Nigerian flag and the rally was led by Dr. Mike Uyi, a human rights activist.

Blue Economy: Minister Seeks Lifeline In Blue Bond Amid Budget Squeeze

Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy is seeking new funding to implement its ambitious 10-year policy, with officials acknowledging that public funding is insufficient for the scale of transformation envisioned.
Adegboyega Oyetola, said finance is the “lever that will attract long-term and progressive capital critical” and determine whether the ministry’s goals take off.
“Resources we currently receive from the national budget are grossly inadequate compared to the enormous responsibility before the ministry and sector,” he warned.
He described public funding not as charity but as “seed capital” that would unlock private investment adding that without it, Nigeria risks falling behind its neighbours while billions of naira continue to leak abroad through freight payments on foreign vessels.
He said “We have N24.6 trillion in pension assets, with 5 percent set aside for sustainability, including blue and green bonds,” he told stakeholders. “Each time green bonds have been issued, they have been oversubscribed. The money is there. The question is, how do you then get this money?”
The NGX reckons that once incorporated into the national budget, the Debt Management Office could issue the bonds, attracting both domestic pension funds and international investors.
Yet even as officials push for creative financing, Oloruntola stressed that the first step remains legislative.
“Even the most innovative financial tools and private investments require a solid public funding base to thrive.
It would be noted that with government funding inadequate, the ministry and capital market operators see bonds as alternative financing.
