Dangote Cement paid about N900 billion in taxes in 2025, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu said yesterday.
He said Dangote Industries generates more energy than many Nigerian states, which is a plus for the African continent.
President Tinubu spoke when he unveiled the Nigeria Industrial Policy 2025, where he reaffirmed the Federal Government’s pride in Nigeria’s manufacturing sector.
The President, represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, said the government appreciates manufacturers who generate their own power and remain committed to national development.
President Tinubu said: “Dangote generates more energy for its industries than many Nigerian states, which is a plus for the African continent.
“To occupy more than the margins in this present wave of industrial revolution, we must put in place infrastructure to compete with the rest of the world.
“This planning has led the country to unveil the Nigerian Industrial Policy 2025.”
