Nigeria's Dangote Group plans to finance a proposed 700,000-barrel-per-day oil refinery in Kenya through internal cash flow, bonds ​and an initial public offering, a senior company executive told ‌Reuters.

Built ​by Aliko Dangote, ​ranked as Africa's ⁠richest man by Forbes, the Lagos refinery had cost more than $20 billion by the time it began ​operating in 2024.

Devakumar said the refinery would be financed ‌through ⁠a mix of internally generated cash, bonds and proceeds from a planned initial public offering.
