Dangote Concludes Plans To Supply Lagos With 24-Hour Electricity

Alhaji Aliko Dangote, the president of Dangote Group, yesterday said that plans have been concluded to construct a gas pipeline to address power supply challenges in Lagos State. 

Dangote revealed this while paying a courtesy visit to Lagos State governor, Mr.Akinwunmi Ambode. In his words, he assured the governor that upon the completion of a Gas Pipeline from Bonny, River State (to be passed under the sea) to Lagos. 

Lagos state will never ever experience blackout as there will be electricity supply 24 hours a day. Dangote also noted that his company is also building ”the largest ever single refinery of 650,000 barrels per day, which is by far more than the consumption of Nigeria.

Ambode while responding, vowed to embark on strategies that would open the state for new investors, aimed at reducing the rate of unemployment in the state.
