President Buhari wrote the note after the tape cutting ceremony of the multi-billion dollars project which will unarguably act as a catalyst for Nigeria's economic boom.

In the message, Buhari said the project very well aligns with his administration's drive to better the lives of Nigerians economically, especially those of farmers.

He added that the commissioned plant proves that with visionary and enterprising citizens, nothing is impossible for Nigeria. The brief message is written in legible but cursive handwriting read:

"The Dangote Fertilizer Plant I just commissioned is consistent with the effort made by our administration to transform the lives of the farmers, increase their incomes and save the country precious foreign exchange.
"This event in Ibeju Lekki today is proof of the fact that nothing is impossible for Nigeria with visionary and enterprising citizens like Aliko Dangote.
"Congratulations."
