Aliko Dangote speaks to the BBC about Africa's industrial future, refinery projects, energy investment, and the challenges facing large-scale development across the continent. In this wide-ranging interview, Africa's richest businessman responds to concerns about protests surrounding a proposed refinery project in Kenya, addresses claims of opposition to African industrialisation, and outlines his vision for expanding refining capacity, power generation and mineral processing across Africa. Dangote argues that Africa must add more value to its natural resources at home, create jobs locally and invest in the infrastructure needed to support long-term economic growth.
