Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, praised Dangote, Africa's richest man, stating that he arrived in Lagos without any possessions 45 years ago but has since achieved remarkable success. Sanwo-Olu made this remark during the commissioning of the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals, the world's largest single-train refinery, located in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos.
Speaking at the event, Sanwo-Olu emphasized Dangote's significant contributions to the state and his investments in both the prosperity of Lagos and Nigeria as a whole.
The governor's comment came after Dangote expressed gratitude to the Lagos State government and President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for their efforts in establishing the Lekki Free Zone and ensuring the successful execution of the project.
The success story of Dangote serves as an inspiration and testament to the potential for personal growth and achievement, even when starting with humble beginnings.
The commissioning of the Dangote Refinery marks a major milestone in the industrial and economic development of Lagos and Nigeria, further solidifying Dangote's remarkable impact on the nation's progress.
