“We want to make sure every single steel that we use will come from Nigeria,” Aliko Dangote said.
Nigeria: Dangote is going into steel. The wailers will not match him on productivity, but as soon as he begins to deliver alpha, the noisemakers, siddon-think-talkers and siddon-think-tankers will start saying “Dangote gets help from the government”.
I want to commend Alhaji for his services to Nigeria. From food to cement to…to refinery to steel, and when he is done with steel, he will come for electricity. Today, he generates about 50% of Nigeria’s total electricity capacity for the Group. This means the expertise is already in-house.

Good People, it takes the killing of one leopard to be called a killer of leopards, the elders will say. Dangote has killed many leopards, and ALL Nigerians must commend this man. I do not even understand how he gets the motivation and energy to keep building considering what he has accomplished.
Dangote Steel – to power the pillars and beams for industrialized Nigeria. Congratulations for the NEW vision.
