Sweetner For The Nigerian Economy !@?

  The Group Managing Director, Dangote Refinery, Mr Graham Clark has commended the Federal government on the new sugar master plan saying it has the capacity to put Nigeria on the global sugar map.

While on a courtesy visit to the Minister of Trade And Investment, Mr. Olusegun Aganga, and the Executive Secretary of the National Sugar Development council (NSDC), Dr Lateef Busari, He explained that he has a mandate to establish a world class sugar business in the Dangote Group and develop a fully integrated world class sugar supply chain that will put Nigeria on the world sugar map.

The Minister, Mr. Olusegun Aganga explained that the Sugar Master Plan is a very important initiative for the Government, due to the economic growth it will bring to Nigeria as well as the extended value chain the sector will create.According him, implementation of the master plan will create numerous employment opportunities. The Minister added that the Dangote Group was dedicated and focused in its approach to the success of the backward integration project and ensures it employ the best hands to run the affairs of companies.

The Federal Government is in conjunction with "Major Players" in the Nigerian Sugar industry, but I wonder why The Dangote Group is all that is being mentioned. The Market Place really hopes that these "best hands" are hands of this great nation.
