African businessmen are often minor players at times of global crises. But Aliko Dangote is no ordinary businessman. We explain why he is well placed to be the continent’s leading industrialist https://t.co/Gc4IPAEt6f
This - from The Economist - is the first time this specific topic has been brought up in any major media in relation to Dangote. A complete lack of technological learning, upgrading or mastery after 20yrs of govt protection.
Every other criticism I make of Dangote you can hang it on this one. It is utterly utterly shameful.
The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.
Our response then must be our response now:
NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR.
