Dangote Invites East African Nations to Buy a 30% Equity Stake in Lamu Refinery | Firstpost Africa
Watch this video as Firstpost explains Dangote’s big offer to East African governments over the proposed Lamu refinery. African billionaire Aliko Dangote is expanding his industrial footprint into East Africa with a mega refinery project in Lamu, Kenya. Valued at approximately $20 billion, including associated port and petrochemical infrastructure, the proposed 700,000-barrel-per-day facility will be modelled on Dangote’s flagship Lagos operations. To secure regional backing and a guaranteed customer base, Dangote has offered East African nations a 30% equity stake worth $1.5 billion. Kenya’s chief economic adviser, David Ndii, revealed that Kenya is eyeing a 10% share valued at $500 million, with neighbouring states like Ethiopia and Rwanda showing interest. However, the project faces major resistance. Greenpeace Africa and local environmentalists are calling for an immediate halt due to the risks of marine degradation. Meanwhile, Tanzania and Uganda have partnered with Vitol Bahrain to build a rival energy hub in Tanga, setting off an intense regional energy showdown. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.TIME STAMPS:
