Aliko Dangote: This project started like a joke, but after doing some research, we chose Lamu County. This oil refinery is one of the fastest projects we have launched since the fertilizer project in Ethiopia. I congratulate President Ruto; I don’t know what magic he used on me

@ny_emman from April 2026 initial high level discussions "like a joke" to Groundbreaking in September 2026. Super fast! What happened his Zim visit in 2025?

The normal lies of course works magic. Of course a shareholding in it.

President Ruto to Aliko Dangote: We have heard you say that you'll be back in 40 months to officially open the Lamu Oil Refinery. Kenyans are very good at keeping data. I want to warn you... they take me to task every time I give them a timeframe

Kalonzo Musyoka: President Kibaki, Raila, and I started the LAPSSET project in Lamu at the time. We welcome foreign direct investment, and Dangote is most welcome in Kenya. When Ruto was Deputy President, they frustrated Dangote, who wanted to invest in a cement factory in Kitui

The first time we heard about a Dangote led East African Refinery, the preferred location was Tanga in Tanzania. I asked Aliko Dangote how it ended up switching from Tanga to Lamu. Dangote says: · Tanga as a choice location was informed by the existence of the 1,443 kms East African Crude Oil Pipeline Project from Hoima in Uganda to the Port of Tanga · Eventually, other factors came into play like availability of water & its depth · Until January 2026, he actually didn't know of a place called Lamu, he thought Mombasa was the next choice Link to full interview:

Aliko Dangote: I applaud President Museveni for his bold decision to ban the export of unprocessed minerals. I also want to commit to the two presidents here that, with their support for the refinery, we will build a similar one in East Africa like the one we have in Nigeria.

I have watched this many times. I have used AI to try to explain it. We must take it at face value the participants have reputational loss to enforce a scam. Demonstrations like this hit me when I was young and kept me on a path to try to understand. We don’t know what we don’t know. There is always a “trick” but what is a “trick”? This is Oz Pearlman and he is quite amazing.

About three months ago, I visited the Dangote refinery. Aliko got all his workers together and said, 'All of you working here, the man you have to thank is this man, that’s me,' he said. 'Without this man, I would not have been in cement production, and it’s cement production that provided the encouragement and the inspiration for the refinery.' - Obasanjo shared the story on how Dangote started producing cement in Nigeria.

Today, we had physical engagements with the Project team for the proposed Dangote Industrial City and Olokola Deep Seaport Project. A major step forward in delivering one of Nigeria’s most strategic infrastructure developments. As Project Manager, I emphasized the importance of alignment, speed, and accountability, in line with the clear mandate of the Group President/CEO of Dangote Group Alhaji Aliko Dangote. We had very productive engagements with all consultants and stakeholders, with a strong focus on execution plans, timelines, and deliverables required to bring this vision to reality in the shortest possible time. This project will be transformative, driving industrialisation, boosting logistics capacity, and creating significant economic opportunities for Nigeria and beyond. The work has begun, and we are fully committed to delivering.

DANGOTE EAST AFRICA REFINERY: This post is for archives. It will be useful soon when the dust settles. Anyone who knows this government knows one thing, every popular project and program is usually the most vulnerable to Patronage. They always know you can always get away with anything and attack those who ask credible questions as “wale hawataki tujenge this or that”. We are all in support of Foreign Direct Investments and especially from our African investors like Dangote. The questions and responsibilities is on the Government of Kenya who must not blubber but just make everything public. 1. We asked about the shareholders of the Kenyan subsidiary of Dangote refinery - Dangote East African Refinery. The response from the President was lengthy but didn’t provide such a simple request. Who are the shareholders of the Kenyan Subsidiary of Dangote East African Refinery? Simple. No anger, no explanation. Just the shareholders list. 2. How much land are we ceding to Dangote refinery? Is the value being converted to Equity or shareholding? What is the value? 3. How much has Kenya committed to invest directly into Dangote East Africa Refinery? Is there premium in the amount? 4. In the Lagos Refinery, the company had to build their own infrastructure including a Port and roads. Will the investment done by the previous governments in regard to Port and all count for anything? How much? 5. Is there any agreement committing Kenya into off take of the refined products? At what cost? As I type this, Nigeria where Dangote Cement is dominant has the highest retail prices of Cement in Africa. This is based of policies and agreements like the ones we must now make public. If the government cannot provide these details, we will do so on their behalf. We are not asking these questions because we don’t know the details, we are only giving them a chance to do what a responsible government should do. We are African and Africa is our Business..

Moscow residents share their impressions after the attack on the Moscow oil refinery: "All evening on TV they were talking about Putin. Instead, they could have given at least some information. I don’t even know what to say in a situation like this. All we can do is shrug." "The government needs to take concrete measures and do something about the war - we’ve been fighting for four years already." "The First and Second Chechen Wars were enough for me. I know who is behind all this, but I won’t say it because I don’t want to end up in prison." 📹: Sota
