EconomyNigeria: What is the real motivation behind Dangote’s IPO ‘for the people’?

Aliko Dangote plans to raise about $1.6 billion through an IPO of Dangote Industries to help fund a $14.3 billion expansion that would double the refinery’s capacity to 1.4 million barrels per day. The offer is pitched as a way for millions of Nigerians to own a stake, but affordability remains in question despite a 525-naira price per share and a 10-share minimum.
