LAGOS — The Dangote Group expects revenue of $36 billion in 2026 after earning about $17 billion in the first half, compared with $18 billion for the whole of 2025, Chief Strategy Officer Aliyu Suleiman said during a visit by Kenya's President William Ruto to the Dangote refinery. He said the group invested about $50 billion between 2020 and 2025 and plans to double that over the next five years. Ruto backed plans for a refinery at Lamu in Kenya, for which Dangote has signed a contract with Engineers India.
