Africa’s richest man Aliko Dangote has faulted Kenya’s leadership for their greed and persistent failure to place matters of national interest first when it comes to development.

Speaking to a renowned Kenyan journalist Jeff Koinange, he shelved his plans to build a mega cement factory in Kenya after being put off by top decision makers in the country whom he described as “more corrupt than Nigerians.”

Speaking on his breakfast show in a local FM station, Jeff shared a private conversation he had with Dangote when he attended the billionaire’s daughter’s wedding in Nigeria last month.

“I asked him, ‘Al Hajj when are you coming back to Kenya?’ and he said ‘Jeff, there are people in that place (Kenya) who put greed and personal interest ahead of national interest. I didn’t think Kenya would be more corrupt that Nigeria.‘” Koinange narrated on air.
Dangote, who has been estimated to be Sh1.5 trillion by Forbes, visited Kenya in September 2013 as part of a high-powered delegation of 50 wealthy Nigerian businessmen accompany the country’s then president President Goodluck Jonathan.

The Nigerian tycoon recently pushed the factory’s entry to Kenya to 2021, having earlier planned to build a cement factory in the local market next year.

Dangote is widely known for using lower pricing to gain market share in new markets and its delayed entry will give some reprieve to existing players in a market that is already witnessing stiff competition.

Atleast they are progressing and better than the midget of Africa.

Corruption can be unique or dynamic so he is seeing a different form than the one he is used to in naija

Look at the name Kenya

Ok.Check my profile.

Nigeria is the corruption capital of the world

Dangote is benefitting from Nigeria's corruption

Look at this crook! I feel like giving you a backhand slap. You went to Kenya to manipulate the leaders like you did in Nigeria and it didn't work and you labelled them Corrupt. Tell me, who is more corrupt than you and the Nigerian government officials you've on your payroll? Abeg don't spoil this Sunday for me.

Does Kenya have to be worse before he faults it?

Have we heard of Animals swallowing Money in Kenya?
NO

So what are we talking about, Abeg give it to NIGERIA jere
We are so corrupt, Dangote is actually enjoying part of that Corruption.

Whenever I feel ugly, I just walk into Oshodi market and hear all the "fine boy" that will last me this April.Corrupt Oshodi Sellers

Where is buhari? He should help them to fight the kwaruption.

Why I do I feel he's saying this because he is unable to have his way, like he would in Nigeria.

But then again, what do I know

Kenya people and money are 5 & 6.

Their women are worst. If you don't have money just run away from them.

They didn't give him monopoly to run his business like in Nigeria

Give corruption to Nigeria. Kenyans are not corrupt. But they are good in sex marathon and relay racing.

my brother Dangote.....kindly tell us what happened......

u wanted to play same game u used to play in nigeria....and dey refused....now dey are corrupt....


but actually u the corrupt one....
if Kenya officials....reply u now....we will know exactly what happened..

Kenya police are very corrupt... From experience

I think this is more important for today... Any wwe fan in the house?

So it's Nigerian leaders that put national interest before their personal interest mtscheeew
Its simple. Their corruption didn't favour him like Nigerian own

Kenya may not be more corrupt than Nigeria, but Dangote's problem may be they are not giving him free-hand to manipulate things the way he does it in Nigeria. He is having a field day in Nigeria due to our yeye politicians

Whenever a rich Nigerian complains, know that he's not getting what he wants.

Liar billionaire... how is kenya more corrupt than Nigeria, u can never compare their infrastructure to that of nigeria to begin with.. there is no way on earth kenya is close to Nigeria in terms of corruption, i mean no way.

Keyan don't like a good thing, leave them and they remain poor

The Bill Gates effect

Dangote is a corrupt fish swimming in a dirty river. He should go and invest in the west where standard is high let's see how far he would go without government sponsored monopoly and tax waiver.

euromilion:
Make him go sit down,Nigeria is the most corrupt country after Romania and Pakistan.

Dangote is complaining because Kenya politicians failed to look after him like Nigerian politicians does,he always corrupt any leader that comes in.

You good your point clearly Bro . It should be heard.
