If My Refinery Project Failed, I Would’ve Been A Dead Man – Dangote

Popular Billionaire, Aliko Dangote has come out to say that his $23 billion Dangote Refinery project is the biggest risk of his life.

He recently had his say during an exclusive interview with Forbes, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, if the project did not work, he would have definitely been dead, and its journey to completion was filled with uncertainties.

He added that Africa has been a mere dumping ground for finished products, but his refinery is here to change that.

His words, “It was the biggest risk of my life. If this didn’t work, I was dead.

We have to build our own nation by ourselves. We have to build our own continent by ourselves, not [rely on] foreign investment.

Africa has been a mere dumping ground for finished products and my refinery represents a pivotal step in ensuring that Africa has the capacity to refine its own crude oil, thereby creating wealth and prosperity for its vast population.”

WOW.
