The President of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote has named the road leading to his multi-billion petrochemical refinery in Lagos after Nigeria’s President, Bola Tinubu.
The Dangote Refinery, worth over $20 billion was commissioned in 2023 by former President Muhammadu Buhari. It’s one of the largest refineries in the world.
He made the announcement on Thursday during the official commissioning of the Deep Sea Port Access Road, linking the Dangote Fertiliser Plant to the Eleko Junction, saying the president has made immense contribution to making the project a reality.
He praised the president for supporting the private sector in the country, noting that by showing an uncommon courage in this area he has encouraged players in the sector.
He said: “The Dangote refinery complex is in many ways your brainchild.
“Mr President, let me just say one thing — the main road going into our refinery is now going to be called Bola Ahmed Tinubu Road.
“With continued collaboration and shared resolve, we are confident that the journey ahead will usher in even greater opportunities for our people and our country under your courageous and ambitious leadership.
“Mr President, you are a very courageous leader. Please continue the great work you are doing. Thank you for your support and encouragement. Definitely, you should expect more, and you should see more, as this has given us the confidence to do more in supporting your government.”
