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.
Aliko Dangote’s Nigerian refinery business has launched what is described as Africa’s biggest-ever IPO.

Senate Republicans revised key sections of the CLARITY Act in a bid to win Democratic votes. The final draft focuses on four unresolved disputes: crypto ethics rules for federal officials, a stablecoin deposit-flight safeguard for community banks, the scope of developer protections and tighter oversight of digital-commodity intermediaries. It faces a 60-vote procedural test Tuesday.
Bettors on Kalshi and Polymarket sharply increased the odds that U.S. legislation establishing a crypto market structure will advance. Tuesday’s Senate vote is the next test, though the bill still has a lengthy path ahead.
New York Attorney General Letitia James led 17 bipartisan attorneys general in urging lawmakers to reject the Clarity Act, a piece of cryptocurrency legislation, ahead of the Senate’s initial vote.
Blockchain Association executive Summer Mersinger writes that the Senate can show on September 15 that it is capable of addressing issues within a reasonable timeframe, rather than waiting for the next market failure before acting.
The revised Clarity Act draft would require divestiture and allow state attorneys general to sue to enforce its ethics provision, which Donald Trump has agreed to.
President Donald Trump agreed to broader conflict-of-interest rules and state-level enforcement powers to secure the key Senate votes needed for the Clarity Act.
