Dangote: PhD, MBA applied for Truck Driver Vacancy

You better believe this oooh!

Chairman of the Dangote Groups, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, revealed Thursday that PhD and MBA Holders were among the over 13,000 applicants who applied for the recent Gradaute Executive Truck Driver vacancy.

The Chairman who made this known at the World Bank Youth Forum, Abuja also expressed satisfaction over quality and quantity of applications they have received, adding that its plan was to empower its Graduate Executive Truck Drivers.

He explained that only 1000 drivers were needed and that the idea behind recruiting graduates was to eventually make them self dependent.

Dangote said the drivers get trip allowances on each trip along with their salaries and that they will own the trucks at no interests or repayments after accomplishing 300, 000 kilometres.

The forum  organized by the Coordinator, Rotimi Olawale and headed by the World Bank Country Director, Marie Francoise Marie-Nelly, was aimed at engaging government, business men and women in order to share business ideas and development that can impact positively on Nigeria and Africa.
