God bless Sir Dangote for this keynote speech. I only hope the right people in power listened very well.

[@balakadiri1507]

What attracts foreign investment is the success recorded by local investors, not government attending one summit after another trying to convince foreign investors.

Perfect Dangote❤ we need Industrial Revolution in Nigeria and Africa at large… Great 👍

[@ahmadufaruk9496]

I have been looking for this keynote speech. I know it's going to be factual and inspiring. Thank you channels and God bless Dangote the phenomenon

[@idowum]

Nigeria's most significant challenge is the pervasive corruption and lack of political will, which has far-reaching consequences. One manifestation of this is the struggle faced by many Nigerians, particularly those in the diaspora, who are interested in farming but find it difficult to access land. The challenge of acquiring land is a major obstacle that prevents them from realizing their agricultural goals and contributing to the country's economic development. To address this, urgent measures are required from all levels of government and the private sector to pursue aggressive investments in manufacturing and agriculture in every local area. Specifically, Nigeria must consider banning the importation of manufactured food and consumer goods, such as diapers, toothpaste, soap, cosmetics, toilet paper, and other similar products, within the next year. This bold move will allow local manufacturers to take over and drive economic growth. I acknowledge that this will be a tough and hard decision, but it is a necessary sacrifice to revamp and save our country. We must take decisive action to stimulate local production, create jobs, and promote economic self-sufficiency.

The last development plan was in the 70s . This is not acceptable. We must develop our manufacturing experience. No country developed by reliance on import. We don't need a quick fix. We must develop a policy document to achieve the country's manufacturing sector development.

[@anthonyebube1449]

My brother, one is at a loss that these same shouted down Mr Peter Obi when he emphasised on manufacturing but are now pretending to recognise and or claiming to be the ones who espoused the idea. Shame on them. They are claiming what do not know or giving what they do not have. When Peter Obi propounded the idea consistently during hus political campaign, with statistics, he was shunned and told "na statistics we go chop?". Now they are pretending.

[@Therealclips-ib8bm]

Not sure that’s the major problem. Nigeria goes through this from time to time. This is just another cycle. But from what I can see currently. It looks like the government actually has plans to make things better. They’re implementing the right policies.

In Nigeria manufacturers are suffering from Nigerian government corruptions of daily harassement by various department and allowing illegal containers to import finish goods to compete with Nigeria manufacturers.

[@anthonyebube1449]

My brother, you are right. Dangote discussing this now shows how hypocritical they are. Peter Obi was called derogatory names but today Shettima(the Vice President) is chairing a seminar or conference on manufacturing. Shameful, isn't it?

The summary of this wonderful speech is that "Nigeria government is very very corrupt and it is affecting the economy"

[@hizstory1813]

NO, export out of the continent is not necessary but manufacturing is and trade on the continent is. However , exporting out of the continent is a an extra. Africa must manufacture and industrialize but without stability AT HOME .. it leaves the continent vulnerable. Africa must learn from the past that (first) the world hates us simply because of the color of our skin and will never respect us until we take care of each other. meaning no hunger or homelessness. it's is useful to gain information and some technology from the outside but it must not be critical or indefinite.

Peter Ibi said all these when he gave astute statistics, but he was shunned down by those who to perpetually keep Nigeria down. During the political campaign, Mr Dangote kept quiet because he was favoured by the existing federal government policy as the monopolist in virtually all sectors. He is now crying out, organising conferences on manufacturing because he is not favoured bt APC government of Bola Tinubu. Seriously, they are all hypocrites. Dangote is talking about protection of industries but he pushes for Indigenous industries like Innoson Motors to be stiffled. He has not even mentioned the local motor manufacturers like Innoson, Nord motors and Proforce. He is talking about assembly plants because this is where he belongs.

Those who destroyed the Nigerian economy with their nepotistic and monopolistic actions are now complaining about a bankrupt system. Decentralise and allow the regions to compete and pursue their own industrial policies. But you won't because the Fulani want to centralise everything to hide their incompetence.

[@fistandpen2505]

There are realities for an emerging economy. You don't develop competition out of thin air. For any moribund place (capital, education, capacity inequalities), certain providers would be prioritized. For Nigeria, the option is a "monopolistic/duopolistic" domestic players OR foreign players. We seem to be comfortable with foreign monopoly and scream bloody murder for domestic companies with dominant market share. I grew up thinking of Leventis, Flour Mills and a number of other foreign companies as local companies. The one place Nigeria does not have issues is in Cement. That does not mean there haven't been some gray, particularly as concerns Ibeto cement etc., but what he is saying is exactly on point. By the way I say this as an Ijaw/Igbo man. At the end of the day, I'd prefer Dangote's flawed but productive industry to anything else that exists in Nigeria. He pays taxes and has gone on to invest in a refinery that can turn Nigeria's fortunes. I don't wrestle with greater regionalization but the reality is industrial regulation (import, tariffs, etc) needs to be standardized and reflect national policy. Regionalization should be in terms of supporting industries in their natural habitat. So for instance, support grantite/stone quarry manufacturing in South East.
