Be close to any government in power. The business secret they will not write in books and magazines.

This is the main business element of Dangote. Your closeness to the government in power will help you buy favours, such as lowering down your price while getting special dollar subsidies in order to stifle your main competitor out of business. Case in point, Dangote Cement vs Ibeto Cement.
The demand for your competitor's goods will fall, yours will increase and slowly they go out of business.

Then you can monopolize the market and take the price of your product up.

This is a typical IBO submission. Very parochial , self delusion and highly illogical. The case of Ibeto cement is one of the several cases of Jonathan and Okonjo - Iweala gross mismanagement of our economy and aiding & abetting of their kinsmen to loot Nigeria.

Ibeto does not manufacture Cement but only does packaging of imported cement from its PortHarcourt jetty as at this time. I am not sure if it has started in 2019.

Several companies carry out packaging of imported cement for several years. These companies include Flour Mills of Nigeria, Dangote, Yinka Folawiyo & several others. Yinka Folawiyo has been packaging cement before Eagle cement Port Harcourt when Ibeto cement was not even in existence. Dangote cement, Isiyaku Rabiu & Sons (BUA), Flour Mills (FMN), Folawiyo & some others have facilities & investment in cement packaging bigger than Ibeto cement.

When Obj banned cement importation, it affected all the importers. The IBOs attacked Obj severely using various paid electronic & print media claiming the ban was because of Ibeto cement. Obj is now their favourite because of Atiku.

The ban was in force when Yaradua assumed leadership. After his death, when GEJ assume full leadership, while other companies invested billion of dollars on local production & employed hundreds of thousand of people, GEJ gave Ibeto approval to resume packaging of imported cement in PortHarcourt. Naturally, this stopped immediately PMB assume leadership.

Till date, other companies affected have diversified or invested on local production, but the Ibeto kinsmen will never allow us to rest

Not exactly sure why you are too frightened about this basic truth about businesses staying close to the government of power— and earning from it. Let me give you some examples.

The United States, the mooted greatest democracy on earth is being run by an establishment which are influenced by business men. The Democrats, the DNC have business men who sponsor them privately and publicly, in the pursuit of business contracts and waivers. The Republicans, the RNC, are being sponsored by business men— mostly within the defence sector. Hence the Republicans will never do any policy that will harm the NRA, the National Rifle Association.

It is normal. Why should anyone be worried about this simple truth? On the weekend of the Ethiopian Airlines crash, the CEO of Boeing, Dennis Muilenburg ran to meet Trump in his golf course and put pressure on him not to ban the Boeing 737 Max 8. The pressure worked for some days.

Dangote has been close to the government in power and benefit from them, while they benefit from him. This is normal and nothing that should make any one worried, really.

6. Befriend the government.

Secretly fund elections of all major parties. He wins either way. Then use your new-found closeness to the government to get favors, kill competition and create a monopoly.

That's Dangote in one sentence. Bloody croony capitalist.

Please Google the boldened.

Nobody is talking about closeness to the corridor of power not having its benefits. Joseph the Arimathea who collected the body of Jesus for burial was a man of influence and affluence and known by Pilate.In business, you must be close to decision makers at a certain point. Bill Clinton had problems with rich farmers as Arkansas governor, he lost . Years later, he was supported by the same people to return as governor. The farmers must protect their interests and that of the state.

This is quite different from crude & uncivilized posting of cement importation where you have Dangote having port facilities for repackaging larger by far than Ibeto facility in PortHarcourt. BUA, Flour Mills & others have those facilities but supported local production. Lafarge has the largest cement factories in Europe but invested locally in Nigeria instead of importing from any of their factories in Europe to repackage in Nigeria, yet, a Nigerian company and her kinsmen will continue to cry foul over government decision to ban importation. What about other companies affected?

All you mentioned are still business strategy! "In business, you leverage on everything that gives you upper hand". If you have it, you use it. Its basic business principle.
