As part of its plan to commence the Dangote Petrochemical refinery in 2018,Dangote Group has sent its first batch of management trainees to India.

The 50 engineers will gain expo training and capacity building on the technicalities, models, and framework of the refinery, by world class experts and professionals.

Some of the trainees who spoke to Proshare WebTV, were excited that they will be part of the team that will design, construct and drive the operations of the Dangote petrochemical refinery.
For them it was a landmark and history in the making, as they will be pioneers of what will emerge as the single largest refinery in the globe..

According to Mr Mohan Kumar, Director Human Capital Management & Project Support, the objective of the “training scheme” is geared towards building the Nigerian talent, improving the core competence of the trainees and exposing them to the latest technologies in the petrochemical industry.

Mr Kumar particularly noted that the Group was in partnership with an Indian company, that will also equip the Nigerian trainees on design engineering.
Also speaking Engr. Mansur Ahmed, Executive Director Stakeholder Management and Corporate Communictaions said the 1-year training programme for all the engineers ,will give them an opportunity to understudy the functionalities of refineries in India.
The Dangote Petrochemical Refinery, with an earmarked production capacity of 650,000bpd is to be located in the Lekki Free Trade Zone, Lagos.
Valued at about $14bl the refinery which will comprise the petrochemical and fertilizer plants, when completed will change the landscape of the Nigerian economy.
It is an ambitious project of the Dangote Group, that is determined to address the socio-economic challenge of perennial “ long fuel queues” in the nation.

PapaBrowne:
Because Dangote is building a refinery, you guys are having mouth.

Isn’t it a terrible shame that you guys(a whole federal government) cannot even repair a single refinery and yet one individual can build a whole refinery with his hard earned money.

This is the worst government in Nigeria’s history. They have nothing to show for 3 years of misrule so they look for things others have done and begin to lay claim. When they feel Dangote is not thier friend, EFCC will suddenly remember that his refinery was built on fraud or forgery or some other thing they can’t explain.

I got no problem with anyone hating Igbos such as myself, love is an expensive project.

What I have a problem with is when Igbos say they want to go their way as an independent nation, the same "Igbo haters" will suddenly remember "one Nigeria forever"
