President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has praised President Bola Tinubu for his “visionary leadership” in infrastructure development and flood control, particularly the Eko Atlantic City project.
In an open letter shared by presidential aide Bayo Onanuga, Dangote commended Tinubu for initiating the Bar Beach land reclamation project, which he credited with saving Victoria Island from coastal erosion and flooding.
Dangote also lauded the President for reviving major road projects like the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway and the Sokoto-Badagry superhighway, describing them as historic interventions.
Drawing comparisons with the recent Texas floods, he praised Nigeria’s flood mitigation efforts and announced that the Aliko Dangote Foundation would soon unveil a Climate Fund to support vulnerable communities in Nigeria.
Onanuga described Dangote’s message as a strong counter to opposition claims against Tinubu’s achievements.
