Invest At Home, Dangote Tells African Entrepreneurs

President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has urged African entrepreneurs to prioritize investing within the continent, stating that strong local investments are what attract foreign investors. He made this call at the Imo State Economic Summit 2025, where he praised President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms, especially the removal of fuel subsidy, describing them as bold steps already yielding positive results. Dangote revealed plans to expand the capacity of his refinery to 1.4 million barrels per day, which would make it the largest in the world. He also announced that the Dangote Group is targeting a major expansion in fertilizer production from 3 million to 12 million tons by 2028, while commending Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma for the state’s 375-megawatt power initiative.

2025 Tinubu’s Tax Reforms, Dangote/Marketers Row: Nigeria’s Economy In Retrospect

Nigeria’s economy in 2025 was shaped by sweeping tax reforms under President Bola Tinubu, rising fuel prices, and a prolonged standoff between the Dangote Refinery and oil marketers. While subsidy removal pushed petrol prices above ₦1,000 per litre at peak periods and worsened the cost of living, newly enacted tax laws and financial sector reforms are projected to take fuller effect from 2026. Despite lingering hardships, key indicators show moderate recovery, with GDP growing by 3.98% in Q3 2025, declining inflation, and improved oil sector performance. The CBN says the economy is now more resilient, even as the IMF urges Nigeria to intensify structural reforms to sustain long-term growth.

IBEDC Resumes Installation Of Over 55,000 Free Meters, Warns Against Extortion

The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) has announced the resumption of free prepaid meter installations for customers under the Meter Acquisition Fund (MAF) Tranche B and Phase 1 of the Distribution Sector Recovery Program (DISREP). The company will deploy 33,450 smart meters through MAF and 22,104 through DISREP, prioritizing unmetered customers on Band A and B feeders. IBEDC stressed that both the meters and installation are completely free and warned customers not to pay installers or staff, urging any cases of extortion to be reported immediately. The company explained that the MAF scheme, funded through a NERC-backed mechanism, complements the Presidential Metering Initiative and aims to close the metering gap across the power sector. Customers are advised to allow installers access to their premises with valid IDs and to avoid tampering with meters, as bypassing constitutes energy theft. While outstanding arrears will not disqualify customers from receiving free meters, IBEDC encouraged indebted customers to visit its offices for resolution to enable seamless migration to the prepayment system.
