Dangote vs FG: Peter Obi takes side in mega dispute

 He praised Dangote's establishment of a remarkable industrial hub in Nigeria, encompassing over 15 sectors.

Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has voiced strong support for the Dangote Refinery, urging the federal government to back the project instead of undermining it.

In a series of tweets on his verified X page, Obi emphasised that the refinery issue is economic, not political.

He wrote, "Dangote Refinery Should Be Fully Supported, Not Vilified. The recent conflicts between Dangote Industries and some government agencies are deeply troubling.

"This issue transcends political affiliations and personal grievances. It is fundamentally about Nigeria's economy, future, and the well-being of its citizens."
