Nigeria Importing Poverty —Aliko Dangote

“If today I were a banker, I would lend money only to export-based industries, because they are safer.
“I don’t want to give you money to set up a factory when you have to import 80% of your raw materials. It does not make sense.
“When you import, you are importing poverty into your country. When you export you are creating jobs here and exporting poverty to them. Whatever we can export we should do so. Why don’t we do something creative? We have the resources.”
