Aliko Dangote told President Tinubu that his company paid N450 billion in taxes in 2024, the highest in Nigeria, more than all banks combined. He also pledged N900 billion for infrastructure projects and named the refinery access road after the President, praising Tinubu’s leadership and support for private sector growth.
  • Dangote Group paid N450bn in taxes to the Federal Government in 2024
  • Company to invest N900bn in Nigerian roads under the tax credit scheme
  • Eight road projects are in progress, including two in Borno State
  • Tinubu praised for inspiring private sector confidence
  • Access road to Dangote Refinery to be named Bola Ahmed Tinubu Road
Dangote’s announcement isn’t just about taxes, it’s a signal of continued private sector faith in Nigeria’s infrastructure push. While the numbers are eye-catching, it’s the public show of support for Tinubu and the symbolic naming of a key road that drew the biggest reaction from dignitaries.

In Dangote’s words, Nigeria’s economic revival needs both strong leadership and committed private investment, and he's pledging both.
