President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated Africa’s foremost industrialist and philanthropist, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, founder and President of the Dangote Group, on his birthday.
Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy in a statement said President Tinubu “celebrates the life of a visionary whose resilience and unwavering commitment to Africa’s economic transformation have redefined entrepreneurship on the continent.”
The President also commended Alhaji Dangote for his contributions to Nigeria’s industrialisation effort, noting how his ventures—from cement manufacturing to agriculture and the groundbreaking Dangote Refinery—have bolstered the national ambition for self-sufficiency and created thousands of jobs.
Beyond commerce, the President extolled Dangote’s philanthropy, mainly through the Dangote Foundation, which has uplifted millions of underprivileged Africans.
“Aliko Dangote’s life embodies hard work, generosity, and faith in Nigeria’s potential. His willingness to invest in people and nation-building reflects profound business ingenuity and love for humanity,” the President said.
President Tinubu also prayed that God Almighty will continue to bless Africa’s richest man with vitality, wisdom, and many more years of impact.
He urged younger Nigerians to draw inspiration from Dangote’s enterprise, resilience, and service.
