Tinubu Brainchild Of Our Refinery – Dangote

Chairman of the Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has described the Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals Complex as the brainchild of President Bola Tinubu.

Dangote gave the credit on Thursday during the President’s visit to the complex in Lagos State.

“It gives me immense pleasure to welcome Your Excellency on your visit to the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Complex and to commission this concrete road and other roads which you graciously approved.

“I must emphasize that the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Complex is in many ways your brainchild.

“The Lekki Free Trade Zone, the site of this industrial complex, was established during your tenure as Governor of Lagos, and I think, Your Excellency, today, you are witnessing tangible fruits of that vision,” Dangote said.

He described Tinubu as a visionary leader.

“I can tell you for a fact that what you have seen today is nothing. We have just started,” he said.

Africa’s richest man said one of the Tinubu administration’s most transformative initiatives is the Naira for Crude Policy.

According to him, the policy stood out as a clear testament to the administration’s commitment to economic recovery and national sovereignty.

The richest black also commended the administration’s recently-introduced Nigeria First Policy, which aimed to drastically reduce reliance on foreign goods and services, prioritising local patronage in investment decisions, business operations, and consumption habits.
