He also lauded the growth of the Dangote refinery stating that initially skeptics antagonized the idea of a refinery arguing that it was only for sovereigns but when the company comes on stream on the 22nd of May it will definitely save Nigeria a lot of money.
He highlighted that disbursement of funds to the exporters had been slow but encouraged banks to do more to aid the non-Oil sector.
