Dangote said the Nigeriaa's government would do well to consider selling off the Nigerian Liquified Natural Gas (NLNG) company, and other dormant but huge capital-generating sectors, and invest the proceeds in the economy.

He made this known in an interview with CNBC Africa.

According to him, this will bring the country out of recession before the end of the fourth quarter.

In his words, “The only way for us to get out of this recession is to make sure we move into action quickly; action by diversifying the economy quickly.

“If I had challenges in my company, I would not hesitate to sell assets, to remain afloat, to get to the better times, because it doesn’t make any sense for me to keep any assets and then suffocate the whole organisation.

It would have made a lot sense if he had suggested selling off Kaduna refinery, Lake Chad, Sambisa forest, Kainji and Shiroro dams and the numerous illegal mines littering the Northern landscape.

Of course, Dangote must have some "advise" to give.

Afterall, Part of this economic woes was created out of a desire to give Dangote all the foreign exchange in the Central Bank of Nigeria, while blocking the commercial banks from selling foreign currency to a multitude of other businesses.

Today we see the effect of prosecuting sentimental "paddy-paddy" economic policies.
