Dangote to construct a 500 Megawatt power plant in Kano, Jigawa, others

In a deliberate attempt to support local economy and wealth creation, Aliko Dangote has promised to construct a 500 megawatt power plant for Kano, Jigawa, Kaduna and Katsina States. The Chairman and CEO of Dangote Group of Companies made the pledge through his representative, Engineer Mansur Ahmed, the executive director stakeholders management, at the 36th Kano Trade Fair held in Kano. In his address, Engr. Ahmed noted that without power industries and commerce will cripple and businesses seriously decline as has been the situation in Kano State.

He further revealed that they were currently discussing with the Kano State government on the megawatt power supply and final agreement will be signed soon. Engr. Ahmed made it known that Dangote has built over a hundred borehole across the state and the theatre health facility at Murtala Muhammed Specialist Hospital which was posponed due to discrepancies and would soon take off in the next few weeks.

Dangote group has done quite a lot of intervention across the federation,he added, sighting the example of Ebola case were the group spent over a billion naira to control it's spread and another billion naira support to Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, especially in the north east. Engr. Ahmed also disclosed that the nutrition program of Dangote Group is aimed at ensuring that Nigerian children grow up vibrant and intelligent.

    These are the kind of things my igbo brothers should do as long as FG does not mandate them to feed it to the National Grid. Me I am ready to contribute N5m to this cause. We should have one at Aba and another at Nnewi. Thks would support Igbo industrialization. Lindodo its time to stand up and be counted!

      You have Igbo people that are far Richer than Him. That's my only problem with (some) Igbos, instead of holding your representatives responsible you people will start throwing blames accross. Dangote isn't as Rich as Orji Uzor Kalu forget Forbes Rati bu what is he do do y'all

    Didn't he announce the same years ago? And no action's been taken in all that time? Dangote just makes random announcements about projects, then recycles the same news many years later without actually accomplishing anything.

    His trailers are only good at killing southerners but when it comes to development and social responsibility to areas where he operates down south - zero. Go to ikotun area where his tankers ply, the roads are totally bad but he doesn't care as long as the money rolls in. All areas marked out for this power projects are all up north , non down south. Tribalist business man.

    Maybe he should start by completing the wing at the Murtala Mohd specialist hospital, Kano for which he demolished an existing structure with a promise to build a state of the art wing in 6mnths; it's been over 3years and the demolition isn't even completed. #fakemediahyping #scammers

    Some people are saying none in the East. Agreed, Dangote is not a government institution. The rich men from the East should do same for their people. Ask your Ochendo Global to do it for you.
