“Ooni Of Ife Removed Over 19 Shrines From Our Refinery, And Said ‘Let The Gods Come And Talk To Me’”— Aliko Dangote Says

Aliko Dangote, Nigeria’s business magnate, has revealed that the Ooni of Ife personally oversaw the removal of more than 19 shrines located on the Dangote refinery site. According to Dangote, the shrines had previously restricted access, preventing anyone from approaching or carrying out activities in the area.

During the commissioning of a section of the Dangote refinery, he recounted that the Ooni instructed that all the shrines be removed, declaring that the gods should “come and talk to me,” signaling his direct involvement in the process. Dangote’s statement highlights the significant role traditional authority played in clearing the site for development and appreciated the Ooni of Ife for his support and providing easy access for the cite construction.

The incident underscores the intersection of modern industrial projects with longstanding cultural and spiritual practices in Nigeria.
