The founder of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote has said his
hair went grey due to efforts to set up his refinery.
Dangote also disclosed that the refinery was a brainchild of
President Bola Tinubu.
Addressing newsmen on Tuesday, Dangote said Tinubu dreamt about establishing a refinery in Lagos State about 18 years ago.
According to Dangote: “There are no limits to how far I can
travel, ours is to make our country and Africa proud; the journey just started
and we will continue. Five or six years ago, I had no grey hair but now it’s
history as we are able to deliver. So, I can say it’s a golden grey hair which
is worth it.
“Petrol from the Dangote refinery is MS5 one of the best in
the world, it would save engines, its like water which people have never seen
before.
“I thank the governor of Lagos for giving us all the
necessary support, 10 years ago; there was almost nothing here but this is what
you call a dream. President Tinubu, then governor of Lagos dreamt of
establishing this about 18 years ago, but nobody thought about coming here.
“My first here was in 2015 when I came to see the land but
you can see today. This is Euro5, you can put this in your engine and begin to
run, it will give your engine the best performance.”
