On Thursday Alhaji Aliko Dangote revealed this in Abuja at a World Bank Youth Forum, that out of the 13, 000 applications received, 6 were Ph.D holders, 704 were Masters Holders, while 8, 460 were Bachelor degree holders.
He explained that only 1000 drivers were needed and that the idea behind recruiting graduates was to eventually make them self dependent.
Dangote said the drivers get trip allowances on each trip along with their salaries and that they will own the trucks at no interests or repayments after accomplishing 300, 000 kilometres.
On his philanthropy and farming investment, the magnate said, “It is not always about money but how do I always give back to the community? And agriculture is the best business to help give back”
“Food isn’t cheap, so the earlier we start looking at it as a business, the better”.
What is your take on this?
