This Times Square activation coincides with the Dangote Petroleum Refinery’s IPO, which opened on September 14, 2026, and will close on October 13, 2026. It includes 4.1 billion shares available at ₦525 per share.
The IPO, valued at $1.6 billion, is being called Africa’s largest and aims to make the refinery publicly traded on the Nigerian Exchange. The choice to showcase it in Times Square aims to place the project at the center of global commerce.
Davido has previously expressed his close relationship with Dangote, referring to him as a family friend, highlighting the significance of this moment as it showcases two prominent Nigerian figures.
The unveiling video garnered significant attention online, showcasing pride in Nigerian achievements on a global stage.
