Dangote is not running a monopoly anywhere.

CEMEMENT: BUA, lafarge, Ibeto, etc dey.

Noodles: he got out of that business...and even when he was there, Indomie was the nationwide leader.

Spaghetti: Golden Penny and co were beating his ass

Refineries: There are 4 other private refineries, plus BUA is building his own mega refinery. The reason why there aren't more is susbsidy which makes donestic refining unprofitable. (Ironically subsidy makes importing fuel more profitable...which is why it has to go).

Tomato....lol.

Car: Innoson cars are more than Dangote Peugeouts.

When it comes to business tycoons in Africa,I don't think there is anyone more celebrated than Aliko Dangote. He is the richest man in Africa with a net worth of over $***billion.
This attained his wealth and not through some silly nepotism or monopoly, but through hard work and innovation.

His father was a successful businessman, and Dangote followed in his footsteps, starting out by selling cement in Nigeria. He quickly recognized that there was a need for a reliable cement supplier in Nigeria and seized the opportunity. Dangote Cement is now the largest cement producer in Africa.

Despite his wealth,he is still a very humble man. He has donated millions of dollars to charity and is a major supporter of education. He is also a vocal advocate for African businesses and has urged other African entrepreneurs to invest in the continent.
He should be celebrated for his accomplishments and for his contributions to Africa.

It was because of the Dangote refinery that every Nigerian was punished. Previously, we buy from Amazon, Alibaba et al using our Naira Visa/Mastercard but because Dangote Refinery gulped every known foreign exchange in Nigeria. CBN changed the policy and told every Nigerian to open a dollar account and start patronizing Bureau de Change.

No, it's because in 2014, oil prices fell, and with that our dollar income fell...and thus, restrictions came in.(And we were here before...the period 1982-1990, and 1991-2007 was quite memorable).

(Nigerians had dollar accounts before 2014, by the way).

Plus, there is no way that Dangote would have sucked up all the dollars 'for his refinery'.

Modified

Most of the loans Dangote got for his refinery came from foreign banks and the African development bank. The CBN loan was in naira , not dollars.

If it's a north vs south thing, why are other northern businessmen not getting the same priviledges from government?

If its a nepotism thing, how come Dangote was favoured by northern, southern, eastern, western, Christian and Muslim leaders?

Fact is, like you said, he's an astute businessman, a very shrewd one who knows how to curry favour from anyone. He's also very good at engaging in strategic investments; the kind of investments that'd make any govt in power lick his feet.

Every businessman bribes, lobbies, schemes and kills to get favours from govt; how come this same man is always the one who wins, regardless of who's in power?.... We need to give it up for the man abeg and quit trying to rubbish his acumen with the "nepotism" or "he is favoured" narrative; he's clear ahead of his peers.

IBB, Gen. Abdul-Salam, Sultan of Sokoto,etc controls Nigeria indeed! So they also controlled Obasanjo (their Oga) during Obasanjo's tenure?

By the way, is Dangote the only Hausa businessman in Nigeria? How come all other Hausa businessmen aren't getting the same favours (since you claim it's because of his tribe)? How come Hausa businessmen like Abdul Rabiu (BUA Group) are also in line complaining about Dangote?

No way they could have controlled someone like Obasanjo
BUT don't forget the first thing OBJ did in 1999 was to Forcefully Retire Hausa/Fulani Generals in the Nigerian Army. sad

As for ur 2nd claim, Dat's Inconsequential. undecided

Dangote is simply Favoured above those Northern BusinessMen you mentioned. πŸ˜•

On the second claim, all I tried to do was to deflate the widespread allusion that his tribe is the reason he keeps getting favoured. I feel that's a lazy conclusion especially when you consider that he gets these favours from everyone in power (regardless of tribe, ethnicity or religion). The truth which many have refused to accept is that there's something Dangote does bettter than his peers.
