During the official launch of the reconstruction of the deep sea port access road connecting Epe to Ijebu-Ode, a lighthearted moment captured the attention of attendees—as the Master of Ceremonies (MC) warmly welcomed the president of the Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, the business magnate quickly interjected to clarify his title.

The MC said, “ I would like to welcome the president of Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote.”
“Mr. MC, for your attention, next time when Mr President is around, my title is Chairman, not President. Don’t call me President o,” Dangote said with a smile, setting the record straight in a humorous yet respectful manner.
The event, marking a significant step toward improving infrastructure and boosting trade in the region, was made memorable not just by the ambitious project but also by this candid and engaging exchange.
