Nigerian economy will take better shape in few months – Dangote
The Chairman of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has said that with the right policy implementations, Nigeria’s economy will be revamped in a few months.
Dangote expressed this optimism at the inauguration of the Presidential Economic Coordination Council (PECC) by President Bola Tinubu on Thursday in Abuja.
He emphasized the need for collaboration between the public and private sectors to reposition Nigeria’s economy.
“This is where the public and private sector will work together. We will advise the government on the type of policies needed to revamp the economy.
Our economy can be turned around in a few months. Things will soon change. We will work to make sure that things change for the better,” Dangote said.

His assurance comes amid his recent outburst on the country’s high-interest rate, which stood at 26.25 percent, and its impact on businesses.
The African richest man had also blamed cabals in the oil and gas sector for frustrating the full-scale kickoff of his 650,000 barrel per day Lagos-based refinery.
Meanwhile, Dangote has insisted that his $19 billion refinery will commence the supply of Premium Motor Spirit in mid-July 2024.
