The chair of FBN Holdings and majority owner of Geregu Power, Femi Otedola, has joined the circle of prominent Nigerians mustering support for Africa’s most affluent man Aliko Dangote, who has been in conflict with authorities over his new refinery business.
Mr Otedola, the strongman of Nigeria’s financial and capital markets, recounted the contributions and vast impact his long-time associate has made in the country and beyond in a Tuesday post on X, dominated by plaudits that drew comparisons with feats achieved by big American investors like Andrew Carnegie, J.P Morgan and Henry Ford as well contemporary Indian billionaires including Mukesh Ambani Gautam Adani.
“In Nigeria, we have our own titans, and it is imperative that we recognize and support them. Aliko Dangote has broken every boundary in worldwide business and industry,” he said.
