During the visit, Tinubu also commissioned the access road to the Lekki Deep Seaport.
President Bola Tinubu on Thursday visited the Dangote refinery in Lagos, describing the project as a massive investment and point of reference.
“Having inspected the Dangote refinery, which is a great point of reference, a great phenomenon of our time and a massive investment, I want to thank Aliko Dangote,” Tinubu said in a statement released by the State House.
During the visit, Tinubu also commissioned the access road to the Lekki Deep Sea Port and commended Dangote Industries Limited and the contractor for the “quality” work.
“I am happy that the Deep Sea Port I initiated as Governor of Lagos State is a huge success today. Users save vast amounts of money using this port because they no longer need to trans-ship their goods,” he said.
“I commend the quality of the access road done by Messrs Dangote Industries Limited on our Tax Credit Road programme and the subcontractor, Messrs Hitech Construction Company Limited.”
The President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, thanked Tinubu for envisioning and implementing the Lekki Deep Sea Port project and assured him of the private sector’s support for expanding infrastructure nationwide.
