Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote has warned that the ongoing conflict in the Middle East involving Iran, Israel and the United States of America may result in Nigerians and other Africans adopting work-from-home policies.
The business mogul said this on Monday following his visit to President Bola Tinubu at the latter’s house in Lagos.
“If this thing doesn’t de-escalate, you know, normally we in Africa, we don’t have any reserves in terms of savings.
“And so, people normally go out and look for money for the next day or for even the same day. Some of them, if they don’t work that day, they won’t eat,” Dangote stated.

On global responses to energy-related pressures, Dangote made reference to Indonesia’s directive to workers to operate on a four-day work week, with the government considering a pivot to remote work similar to what transpired during the COVID-19 period.
