In a response to Samaila Mohammed's article on democratising wealth through the Dangote Refinery share offer, the author argues that while Northerners should invest if they can afford it, doing so does not necessarily secure the region's economic stake. The author contends that the real issue lies in the definition of economic inclusion, noting that the North continues to lose ownership of businesses operating in its communities. The piece warns against confusing financial participation with economic empowerment, suggesting that buying shares alone may not address deeper structural economic challenges.
