A Sunday with Aliko Dangote
A Sunday with Aliko Dangote
By ETIM ETIM

I was one of the 102 senior journalists invited from all over the country to tour the Dangote Fertilizer and Petrochemical Refinery Complex last Sunday and it turned out to be an unbelievably humbling and revealing experience. Unmistakably visible to us was the power of vision, determination to succeed in the face of many hurdles one man’s love for country. We were reminded that it is only we, Nigerians, that will develop our; but not some mythical ‘foreign investors’ that our leaders have been looking for. The visit lasted 11 hours during which we went around every corner of the massive complex, occupying 2,635 hectares of land (seven times the size of Victoria Island, Lagos). It is located in the Dangote Industries Free Zone (different from Lekki Free Zone which is owned by the Lagos state government). In all, we probably covered most of the 112 km of road network crisscrossing the vast compound (some journalists termed it ‘The Dangote Planet’), walking and being driven. On hand to lead the tour were Aliko Dangote himself (Group President); Edwin Devakumar (Group Vice President, Oil & Gas) and Fatima Dangote (Group Executive Director, Commercial).
Dangote informed us that the fertilizer, petrochemical and refinery business would be quoted on the stock exchange on or before the first quarter of 2025 in what could be one of the biggest IPOs in recent years; that the NNPCL has only 7.2% stake in the refinery, not 20% as stated previously ‘’Although we had offered them 20%, they could not pay for all of that and so we had to reduce it to 7.2% which they paid for’’, he said matter-of-factly. He spoke on the politics and economics of crude oil supply from the NNPCL; the $100 million payment to Lagos state government; his encounters with shrines during construction and the role of Ooni of Ife; why he did not build the refinery in the Niger Delta region which is the nation’s hydrocarbon base and why Ogun State lost out as the initial location choice; why he has no home outside Nigeria and his plans to reconstruct the Lekki expressway. He also announced that the company will soon move into its 18-storey towers on Alfred Rewane Road, Ikoyi, not far from its current location.
We arrived the refinery complex about 9.30am after a two-hour ride from the corporate headquarters of Dangote Industries Limited (DIL), Falomo, Ikoyi. The first port of call was a facility called Land Fall Point (LFP). ‘’Twenty-five kilometers from here into the ocean, we have our three single point mooring (SPM) where ships discharge crude oil into our subsea pipes’’, Devakumar said. An SPM is a floating buoy anchored offshore that allows the handling of liquid cargo in areas where dedicated onshore facility for loading and unloading cargo is unavailable. From LFP we went to the port and quays constructed by DIL with a load bearing capacity of 25 tonnes/sq meters to bring heavy and large cargoes close to the site to handle liquid cargoes. Soon, we were off to the fertilizer plant where the pungent smell of urea welcomed us. The plant has an installed production capacity of three million tons/yr, but it’s currently producing at half the capacity due to inadequate gas supply – the same problem that is plaguing Nigeria’s electricity supply and impeding production at NLNG.
ī
The fertilizer plant is the largest in Africa and the second largest in the world. Nigeria consumes one million tonnes of fertilizer per year; meaning that Dangote is able to meet local demand and while excess is exported to USA, Brazil and other places.
From the fertilizer plant, we dashed to the conference room where Dangote gave detailed and comprehensive briefings on his businesses, right from its inception, detailing his transition from commodity trading in 1978 to a well-diversified conglomerate comprising cement, crude oil and gas exploration, agriculture, fertilizer and petrochemical refinery. He appeared disarmingly simple; mild-mannered and convincing. His voice was gentle and there was no iota of indication that this was Africa’s richest man. I sat close to him, with Kayode Komolafe of Thisday (we call him KK), sitting between us. Even though I knew what the answer might be, I asked Dangote why he didn’t site the refinery in the Niger Delta. He said that would have made the investments less expensive, but he was frightened away by the volatility in the region. ‘’But Sir, Akwa Ibom State is peaceful. There’s no violence there. You should have come Akwa Ibom’’, I pushed. Others chuckled, but Dangote contemplated my pitch briefly and said, ‘’Yes. I know your governor. I saw him last week in Lagos …’’.

We left the conference room to tour the refinery, the labs and the control rooms. I didn’t know what to expect, but suffice it to say that the refinery is just a labyrinth of big pipes, running overhead in the open skies, without roofs, and on the ground and beneath the ground. It is a network of big and small pipes bending, twisting and contorting all over the place from its beginning at the Single Point Mooring 25 km offshore to the loading bay where refined products are pumped into tankers. As we walked around, I tapped Mr. Devakumar at a point and asked, ‘’Do you have an idea of the total lengths of all these pipes. I’m sure they’d run into thousands of kilometers. ‘’Yes’’, he answered. ‘’We are inviting Guinness World Records to register it’’. Dangote chipped in, ‘’They will have to come and audit it before they register and announce it’’. We continued walking. This is the world’s largest single-train refinery with capacity to process 650,000 barrels of crude per day. It will meet all of our needs for refined products with enough for exports. ‘’It is a game changer’’, exclaimed Devakumar.
After the refinery, we returned to the Conference Room for more briefing, Q & A and lunch. There were questions on varied topics, including impact of energy transition on the sustainability of the refinery; title documents from Lagos state and NNPC shareholding. One cheeky journalist asked if the Dangote Refinery will also undergo the kind of turn around maintenance that government-owned refineries have been experiencing and another queried if Dangote knew why the Port Harcourt refinery has refused to work despite the billions of dollars pumped into its overhaul. The underlying mischief behind the two questions were obvious and we all had a good laugh. I asked two questions on the politics of supply of crude oil to the refinery by the NNPCL and whether he will take the refinery to the capital market. I had earlier made a note to ask Dangote about his relationship with the Tinubu administration given the dramatic and embarrassing visits from the EFCC last year. But I changed my mind and dropped the question. Dangote addressed the questions one after the other. He said fossil fuels will be around for sometime to come despite the drive for renewable energy and explained that the need for NNPCL to supply domestic refineries with crude. He is optimistic that the guidelines recently announced by the NNPCL on crude supply will make a difference, adding, ‘’I hope the IOCs will respect the guidelines. Right now, we are paying $6 premium on every barrel we buy from them, but luckily, our refinery was designed to refine different grades of crude and so we can actually buy from everywhere. But importation brings in poverty and ships out jobs’’.
He said that Lagos State government had insisted on being paid for the land in dollars and he willingly paid the $100 million price. Although the government promptly issued the title documents, construction was delayed because of community issues. ‘’You know they have a lot of shrines here…’’, he said. We laughed heartily. ’But I must thank the Ooni for his kind interventions which quickly resolved the issues’’, he added. The delay cost him $60 million in interest charges from the banks. The refinery was initially scheduled to be sited in Ogun State, but the state government had delayed in providing the land because the governor then was making unethical demands. Dangote walked away and approached Lagos State government. But the delay cost the company about $500 million in interest payments. That’s one of the negative outcomes of corruption.
By now we were all tired, but nobody complained. The mood was convivial and the conversation was interesting. The refinery currently employs 30,000 people, of which 97% are Nigerians. The figure will go up to 100,000 as productions ramps up. The plant will meet all of our domestic demands for liquid products (gasoline, diesel, kerosene and aviation fuel). Currently, it is producing diesel and aviation fuel; petrol will be pumped out next month, Dangote assures. The Group President says his refinery has been able to bring down diesel price and may also moderate petrol prices at the pump, depending on variables like source and price of crude and exchange rate.

Fatima Dangote (Group Executive Director, Commercial
The event closed with a passionate vote of thanks from Ms. Fatima Dangote. She praised her father’s energy, commitment and love for Nigeria and thanked Nigerians for their unceasing love to daddy. We rushed back to our hotels to watch the England-Spain Euro final football game!
COMMENTARY
ARISE Free Food Distribution: How Compassion Became Public Policy in Akwa Ibom
By Lucy Daniel
In a time when many Nigerian families are struggling with rising food prices and economic uncertainty, humanitarian interventions have become more than acts of charity; they have become instruments of social stability. In Akwa Ibom State, one of the most visible examples of this approach is Governor Pastor Umo Bassey Eno’s ARISE Free Food Distribution Programme, a statewide initiative that is gradually redefining the relationship between government and the governed.

With the fourth phase of the programme now reaching 28 out of the 31 Local Government Areas of the state, the intervention has evolved from a relief measure into one of the largest humanitarian food support programmes by any sub-national government in Nigeria.
The recent distribution exercises in Ibiono Ibom and Itu Local Government Areas offered a clear picture of the programme’s growing reach and impact. In both local governments, 7,000 bags of rice and beans were distributed to vulnerable households identified through the State Social Register. The atmosphere was not merely one of food distribution but of gratitude, hope and renewed confidence in government.
For many beneficiaries, the intervention came at a critical time.
Mrs. Ekaette Udo, a beneficiary in Itu Local Government Area, described the support as a lifeline for families struggling with the rising cost of living.
”This food will help us reduce the money we would have spent on feeding. We appreciate Governor Umo Eno for this gesture and we pray that God will continue to give him wisdom to lead us,” she said.

Another beneficiary, Mr. Inyang Etim, noted that the assistance would significantly support his household expenses.
”The rice and beans will help us at home, especially with the high cost of food. We are happy that Itu is included in this programme,” he remarked.
For elderly beneficiaries like Mrs. Mfonima Akpan, the programme represented more than food assistance. It was a reminder that the government had not forgotten them.
”I am happy today because I did not expect to receive this kind of support. I thank our Governor and everyone who made this possible,” she said.
These testimonies reflect similar stories emerging from the 28 local government areas already covered in the current phase. Across Akwa Ibom, thousands of widows, elderly citizens, persons with disabilities, low-income earners and vulnerable families have benefitted from a programme specifically designed to cushion the effects of economic hardship.
What makes the ARISE Free Food Distribution Programme particularly significant is its systematic approach. Rather than relying on political patronage, beneficiaries are drawn from the State Social Register, ensuring that assistance reaches those who genuinely need it. This has strengthened transparency, reduced allegations of bias and enhanced public confidence in the process.
The programme’s impact extends beyond individual households. Economic experts often argue that food security interventions can influence market behaviour by reducing excessive demand pressures. This observation was echoed by the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Market Matters, Akparawa Idorenyin Raphael, who noted that when thousands of families receive staple food items free of charge, the immediate pressure on the market is reduced, helping to moderate food prices.

The progressive expansion of the programme further demonstrates government responsiveness. From an initial distribution of 3,000 bags, the intervention grew to 4,000 bags and now stands at 7,000 bags per local government in the fourth phase. Such growth reflects both increased government commitment and an understanding of the realities confronting ordinary citizens.
Yet the food programme is only one component of a broader humanitarian architecture under the ARISE Agenda. Alongside food distribution, the administration has implemented social welfare initiatives, enterprise support programmes, healthcare interventions, educational assistance and economic empowerment schemes targeted at vulnerable populations.
The recently announced N31 billion economic empowerment programme, allocating N1 billion to each of the 31 local government areas, further demonstrates a shift from relief to sustainable economic empowerment. While food support addresses immediate needs, enterprise funding aims to help citizens create wealth, expand businesses and improve their livelihoods.
This combination of compassion and economic empowerment offers an important lesson in governance. Effective leadership is not measured solely by the number of roads constructed or buildings commissioned. It is equally measured by the ability to protect vulnerable citizens during difficult times while creating opportunities for long-term prosperity.
There are valuable lessons here for other states and even for national policymakers.
First, humanitarian programmes are most effective when they are institutionalized and data-driven. The use of the Social Register has improved targeting and accountability.
Second, social interventions work best when combined with broader economic development initiatives. Relief without empowerment creates dependency, while empowerment without relief may leave vulnerable populations behind.
Third, governance becomes more meaningful when citizens can directly feel the impact of public policy in their daily lives. For many families across Akwa Ibom, the ARISE Free Food Distribution Programme has transformed government from an abstract institution into a caring presence.
The intervention also reflects the broader philosophy of the ARISE Agenda, which places people at the centre of development. While major infrastructure projects continue across the state, including roads, healthcare facilities, schools, housing schemes and agricultural investments, the administration has maintained a deliberate focus on social protection.
As Akwa Ibom approaches the 2027 electoral cycle, many observers will inevitably assess Governor Umo Eno’s performance. Such assessments should be based not only on campaign promises but also on measurable outcomes. The evidence so far suggests a government that has invested simultaneously in infrastructure, economic growth and human welfare.
The sustained implementation of the ARISE Free Food Distribution Programme across 28 local government areas demonstrates consistency, commitment and administrative capacity. More importantly, it demonstrates empathy, a quality often missing in public leadership.

For many beneficiaries, the programme is not merely about bags of rice and beans. It is about dignity, inclusion and hope. It is about knowing that the government recognizes their struggles and is prepared to respond.
As the fourth phase nears completion across all 31 local government areas, the programme stands as one of the clearest examples of people-centred governance in contemporary Nigeria. It has provided immediate relief, strengthened social cohesion, stimulated local economic stability and reinforced public trust.
Ultimately, the strongest argument for granting Pastor Umo Bassey Eno, PhD, a second term may not lie in political rhetoric but in the lived experiences of ordinary citizens whose lives have been positively touched by his administration’s policies. From the elderly woman receiving food support in Itu to the struggling family in Ibiono Ibom finding temporary relief from rising food costs, the testimonies speak for themselves.

In governance, results matter. In humanitarian leadership, compassion matters. The ARISE Free Food Distribution Programme has shown that under Governor Umo Eno, both can work together to improve lives and build a more inclusive society.

COMMENTARY
ARISE AGENDA: HOW AKWA IBOM IS TAKING ITS DEVELOPMENT STORY TO THE WORLD
By Lucy Daniel
A state does not become remarkable simply because it builds impressive projects. It becomes remarkable when those projects begin to change lives, reshape opportunities and create a story that others can see, understand and learn from.
That is the emerging story of Akwa Ibom under Governor Umo Eno and the ARISE Agenda.
At first glance, the ARISE Agenda may appear to be a familiar government development framework. But beyond the acronym lies a broader idea: that development must connect infrastructure with people, economic opportunity with inclusion, and government investment with a better quality of life.
This is increasingly becoming visible across Akwa Ibom.
From roads and aviation infrastructure to healthcare, agriculture, housing, education, skills development and technology, the State is gradually building an interconnected development ecosystem. More importantly, the story is beginning to travel beyond the borders of Akwa Ibom.
And that matters.
In today’s competitive world, states and cities are no longer judged only by what they possess. They are judged by how effectively they use what they have to create opportunities.
Akwa Ibom has enormous advantages, its location, agricultural potential, natural resources, tourism assets, human capital and relatively strong infrastructure base. But advantages do not automatically translate into prosperity. They must be connected by vision, investment and effective governance.
That is where the ARISE Agenda seeks to make a difference.
Beyond Projects, Building Connections
Perhaps the most important feature of the emerging development story is the connection between projects.
Consider the Victor Attah International Airport.
An airport is never just a terminal building. When properly integrated into the economy, it becomes a gateway for tourism, commerce, investment, business travel and human mobility.
The growing international orientation of the airport therefore has implications far beyond aviation. It can help connect Akwa Ibom businesses to wider markets, make the State more accessible to investors and strengthen its position as a destination for tourism and conferences.
The same logic applies to roads.
A road linking rural communities to urban centres is not simply infrastructure. It can shorten the distance between farmers and markets, reduce transportation costs and stimulate economic activity.
Healthcare infrastructure tells another story.
A modern hospital is not merely a building filled with equipment. It is an investment in human dignity, productivity and confidence. When citizens can access quality healthcare closer to home, families are protected from avoidable economic hardship and communities become more productive.
Agriculture, too, becomes more powerful when viewed as an economic chain rather than simply food production.
Seedlings, farmers, processing, transportation, markets and technology must work together.
That is the deeper meaning of an interconnected development agenda.
The Human Face of Development
Yet there is a danger in development communication.
Governments can become so focused on announcing projects that they forget the people behind the statistics.
The true story of development is not found in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. It is found in what happens afterwards.
It is the farmer who can now move produce more easily.
It is the young person who acquires a skill and discovers a new source of income.
It is the mother who can access healthcare without travelling hundreds of kilometres.
It is the entrepreneur who finds that better infrastructure makes it possible to expand a business.
It is the family that moves into decent housing.
These are the stories that give the ARISE Agenda its human meaning.
And these are also the stories that can travel beyond Akwa Ibom.
From Local Development to Global Visibility
The world is increasingly connected. A project in Uyo can become a subject of discussion in Lagos, Abuja, Accra, London or Dubai within hours.
But visibility alone is not enough.
The global audience is becoming more sophisticated. Investors want data. Development experts want measurable outcomes. Citizens want evidence. International media want stories that can be independently understood.

Governor Umo Eno of Akwa Ibom State
Therefore, Akwa Ibom’s communication strategy must continue evolving.
The State should not only tell people what has been built. It should increasingly demonstrate what those investments are producing.
How many businesses are benefiting?
How many jobs are being created?
How much travel time has been reduced?
How many farmers have gained access to markets?
How many young people have acquired employable skills?
How much investment is being attracted?
What is the measurable improvement in healthcare and education?
These questions do not diminish government achievements. They strengthen them.
Because the strongest advertisement for development is evidence.
A Nigerian Lesson
There is also a bigger national lesson.
Nigeria’s development cannot depend entirely on federal initiatives. States are critical laboratories where innovative ideas can be tested and adapted to local realities.
If Akwa Ibom succeeds in connecting infrastructure, agriculture, healthcare, human capital, technology and investment, other states should be able to study those experiences and adapt what works to their own circumstances.
That is how local development becomes national knowledge.
Akwa Ibom does not need to claim perfection. No government has it.
What matters is the willingness to build, measure, correct, improve and communicate honestly.
That is what transforms an administration’s programme into a development model.
The Question of Legacy
For Governor Umo Eno, the most important question will eventually be one of legacy.
Will the ARISE Agenda remain identified primarily with one administration, or will it become embedded in institutions, infrastructure, economic systems and public expectations?
The latter would be the greater achievement.
A truly successful development agenda should outlive political personalities. It should leave behind systems that continue to create opportunities even when the political actors have moved on.
That is why institutionalisation is as important as commissioning.
Buildings can be inaugurated. Roads can be commissioned. Programmes can be launched.
But institutions and economic systems are what sustain development.
Taking the Story Beyond Akwa Ibom
Akwa Ibom is therefore at an interesting point in its development journey.
The State is not simply trying to improve itself. It is increasingly positioning itself to be seen, connected and understood beyond its geographical boundaries.
The challenge is to ensure that the story remains bigger than political promotion.
Let citizens tell it.
Let entrepreneurs tell it.
Let farmers tell it.
Let investors tell it.
Let independent observers examine it.
Let the numbers speak.
When development is real, the people eventually become its most credible communicators.
The ARISE Agenda has the opportunity to become more than a state development programme. It can become a case study in how a sub national government connects physical infrastructure with human development and economic ambition.
But that opportunity comes with responsibility.
Akwa Ibom must continue building, measuring, communicating and improving.
Because the ultimate destination is not applause.
It is impact.
And when that impact becomes visible enough to be experienced by citizens, recognised by businesses and understood beyond the State, the development story of Akwa Ibom will no longer belong only to Akwa Ibom.
It will become part of Nigeria’s larger story of what is possible when vision is matched with purposeful action.

The Power of Partnership: How Collaboration Is Expanding Humanitarian Impact in Akwa Ibom
By Ekaette Okon Joseph
In Akwa Ibom State, Governor Umo Eno’s administration is expanding humanitarian support through a partnership model that pairs government coordination with outside expertise, funding and technology.
According to Commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs Princess Emem Ibanga, FCIPA, the model brings together faith-based organisations, development partners and the private sector to reach Persons with Disabilities, women, youth and other vulnerable groups across the state’s local government areas.
One example is the Fourth Thursday Assistive Mobility Clinic. Persons with Disabilities who are unable to walk undergo clinical assessments to ensure that every mobility aid provided matches their physical condition and mobility requirements. The clinic is provided free of charge, and beneficiaries make no payment at any stage.
Ibanga said the monthly outreach is fully funded by Governor Umo Eno, PhD, as part of his administration’s commitment to inclusion and dignity for Persons with Disabilities.
Skilled technicians trained through the Assistive Mobility Device Coupling Training, facilitated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in partnership with the state government, assemble, customise and adjust each wheelchair and walking aid to suit individual beneficiaries.
A total of 444 Persons with Disabilities have received wheelchairs and mobility devices through the partnership, following the donation of 263 wheelchairs and 181 walking aid devices by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Ibanga said. She said the donation reflects the Church’s commitment to supporting vulnerable groups through humanitarian service.
Ibanga said Governor Eno personally facilitated clearance of the consignments so the equipment could reach beneficiaries without delay.
According to Ibanga, physiotherapists from Uganda were engaged to train participants in international best practices in assistive device assembly and adaptation. She said the training gave younger participants a career path in rehabilitation services, a field still growing in Nigeria.
Ibanga coordinates these partnerships as Commissioner for Humanitarian Affairs. She said the Ministry works to align the interests of development partners, faith-based organisations, corporate institutions and government agencies around the ARISE Agenda vision of Governor Umo Eno.
That coordinating role was on display recently when Jobberman Nigeria’s leadership visited Ibanga at her office.
“I welcomed the delegation led by its Country Head of Programmes, Mr. Olamide Adeyeye, on a courtesy visit to our Ministry,” Ibanga said. “Our engagement focused on building stronger partnerships that will improve livelihoods and create more opportunities for vulnerable groups across the State.”
Ibanga said the discussion covered five priorities: expanding youth employment and employability programmes, supporting skills development and economic empowerment for young people, promoting inclusive opportunities for Persons with Disabilities, exploring Jobberman’s participation in the forthcoming Humanitarian Day and Humanitarian Roundtable, and aligning future programmes with the state’s humanitarian priorities.
She commended Jobberman Nigeria’s youth development work and acknowledged its grassroots impact in Akwa Ibom State since 2023, when the organisation began operating in the state.
“As a government, we recognise that meaningful and lasting development is achieved through collaboration,” Ibanga said. “We look forward to working more closely with Jobberman Nigeria to expand opportunities for our young people, strengthen livelihoods and improve the wellbeing of vulnerable citizens in line with the ARISE Agenda of His Excellency, Pastor Umo Eno, PhD.”
Ibanga said the state’s ARISE Free Food Security Programme also continues to support vulnerable households, part of what she described as a wider effort under the ARISE Agenda to treat humanitarian assistance as an ongoing system of support rather than one-off relief.
Ibanga said the Ministry is inviting corporate organisations, development partners and faith-based institutions to join the state’s humanitarian coalition and expand opportunities for vulnerable citizens across Akwa Ibom.
