You will certainly agree with me that people take into arms when poverty can not be defeated. It follows logically then that when jobs are created and wealth is distributed, the very high risk arms carrying will be reduced to the minimum. This is the thinking of Mr Aliko Dangote. The Africa's richest man, says he would be investing $2.3bn in rice and sugar production in the north. The billionaire industrialist made this known yesterday at the just concluded World Economic Forum, WEF Africa.
He said creating job opportunities is the surest way to end the Boko Haram scourge. He also revealed that he would be investing a total of $12billion in Nigeria, and $4bn outside the country over the next four years. Dear E2B reader, join us in thanking Alhaji Aliko Dangote.
