Cel mai bogat om din Africa vrea să construiască o rafinărie de 15 miliarde de dolari lângă un sit UNESCO

Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote plans to build a $15 billion oil refinery near Lamu, Kenya, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The project faces opposition from locals, environmentalists, and tourism operators concerned about its environmental impact. Despite the controversy, Kenyan officials support the refinery for its potential to boost energy security and create jobs. Dangote Industries has begun soil tests and equipment orders, aiming for rapid progress. A Kenyan court recently suspended construction due to local lawsuits claiming ancestral land rights. The refinery is expected to process 700,000 barrels of oil daily, with Dangote promising to adhere to strict environmental standards.
