Dr Mohamed Ibn Chambas, Chairman of African Union High Level Panel on Sudan, says the Dangote Refinery is a testament to Nigeria’s ingenuity and African entrepreneurship.
Ibn Chambas said this in Lagos on Sunday when he visited the Dangote Refinery in Ibeju Lekki, Lagos State.
He commended Alhaji Aliko Dangote for his “business acumen, courage, tenacity and vision matched with action” in driving through such a mega project to its conclusion.
Ibn Chambas said Dangote had cemented his status as the true leader of the African Private Sector.
“I believe these are the types of transformational projects that would propel Africa out of poverty.
“Projects like the Dangote Refinery create jobs, have multiplier effect on the national and regional economies, provide cheaper and reliable fuel for transportation,” he said.
Ibn Chambas also commended President Bola Tinubu for ensuring provision of crude oil to Dangote Refinery.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to salute President Bola Tinubu for his bold and forthright decision to ensure provision of regular and dependable supplies of Nigeria crude oil to the Dangote Refinery.
“As a successful entrepreneur in his own right with a proud record of success in the private sector in the past, Tinubu understands the challenges.
