Dangote’s refinery is valued near $47bn before capacity doubles
Dangote Petroleum Refinery has regulatory approval to offer 4.1 billion shares at ₦525 each, potentially bringing in about ₦2.15 trillion while valuing the business near $47 billion. Yet the base IPO represents only about 3.3% of enlarged shares.
