Harvard Business Article Praising Dangote's Oil Refinery by Nobody: 7:27am On Sep 13, 2013 |
Aliko Dangote, Africa’s wealthiest man, recently signed a multi-billion dollar contract to build Nigeria’s largest oil refinery, and turn the oil-rich country into a petroleum exporter. The promise of job creation — the refinery project is expected to employ 8,000 engineers and create jobs for 85,000 Nigerians — has excited many commentators. But there are further reasons for optimism, and lessons for companies looking to understand the power of indigenous entrepreneurs in emerging markets. http://blogs.hbr.org/2013/09/nigerias-big-gamble-on-one-ind/ 5 Likes |

as usual, this fine article/post will be tainted by off-hand ignorant posters with irrelevant one-liners and unguarded (off-point) remarks. 1: It is clear that infrastructure development is mired in political crookery. The interest of the nation or its people are not put in perspective. rather greedy (hardly literate) politicians are pivotal factors delaying progress of infrastructural development in the country 2: By far Nigeria's largest project yet (already in Dangote's hands), it leaves too much monopoly for a single conglomerate, if Nigeria's Political history is anything to hgo by, we know how this position can easily cause social conflict and political violence in the near future. it is a good move but just like the power proposal by a well experienced Canadian power firm with a trail of successful projects, why go for a green horn who has no experience in the matter. 5 Likes |

emk4lif: The suggestion of the author of the paper with regards to curbing the seemingly 'too much power' being vested on one man courtesy of his being the majority shareholder is a very valid. Remember what USA did to Microsoft? The author's concern for the regulation of the potential power that would be conferred on Dangote courtesy of his refinery is a very valid one. With that much power one man can be the sole determinant of who rules the country. Developed countries know this hence their various laws to put conglomerates in check such that no group of persons or cabal can blackmail the government virtue of their economic strength which in tun is informed by their formidable financial base. All in all,it is a very welcome development. Kudos to the man Dangote. But all of this would be a curse if he kotows to the siren songs of ethnicity and if he heeds the voice of religious intolerance as these are some of the bane of Nigeria today. 1 Like |

i strongly believe there should be a business module forged from dangote's business ideosyncrasies, his business strategy is unique, bank-breaking and risky, yet popular and profitable - where Western investors shy away from due mainly to security and lack of market information is where Dangote swims in, places like IRAQ, TANZANIA, SUDAN, the middle east, and north africa where there is a volatile political environment and high perception of insecurity which might not necessarily be true is where Dangote pumps his wealth into, and most importantly in sectors where westerners fear to trade, it is no news that trying to build and oil refinery is perhaps the business with thd most dreaded political opposition due to industrial lobbyist, but coincidentally thats the Sector Mr.DANGOTE CHOSES TO SWIM IN. Well i call "The Dangote business Module". 2 Likes |
