We want to bring all our monies to Nigeria — Dangote

President of Dangote Group, Mr. Aliko Dangote, has expressed the readiness of his company to increase its investment in Nigeria.

He made this known on Friday when he led some state governors on a visit to the site of the Dangote Refinery, Petrochemicals and Fertiliser projects at Ibeju Lekki, Lagos.

News Agency of Nigeria reports that the NGF members who visited the sites included governors Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State; Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos; Godwin Obaseki, Edo; Dapo Abiodun, Ogun; and Simon Lalong, Plateau.

Others were Okezie Ikpeazu, Abia; Bala Mohammed, Bauchi; Abdulrahman Abdulrazak, Kwara; Babagana Zulum, Borno; Nasir El-Rufai, Kaduna; and Ivara Esu, Deputy Governor of Cross River.

Dangote thanked the governors for the visit to the facilities and assured them that the group would continue to invest in Nigeria to create jobs and make all Nigerians proud.

“We will continue to make sure that we are the ones that will lead and others will follow. We want to bring all our monies to Nigeria and invest where we belong to,” he said.

Dangote, however, urged the governors to focus on the areas of health, education and capital development, adding that these sectors should be part of their key responsibilities to their people.
