The Dangote System
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on January 15, 2021, 9:10 AM
“Has Dangote read the Dangote System? This is an amazingly fresh way to look at how this man became the most important man in African business. I think all the media houses are wrong on the innuendos: you got to the root of what actually made Dangote successful. This is business school stuff. Well done Ndubuisi”- from a reader on "The Dangote System: Techniques for Building Conglomerates" by Ndubuisi Ekekwe .
To answer that question, I will say there is a 90% chance Mr. Aliko Dangote had read it; some of his lieutenants have. But the issue is with me since I have rejected offers from Nigerian publishers to put it in print. As it stands now, the book is exclusive to the Tekedia community.
