FG directs the Dangote cement factory to reopen immediately

 



The Dangote Cement facility in Obajana, Kogi State, has been ordered to reopen with

immediate effect by President Muhammadu Buhari.

While presiding over the National Security Council (NSC) meeting on Friday in the Council Chambers of the State House in Abuja, Buhari issued the order.

After the meeting, General Lucky Irabor, the CDS, and the Minister of Police Affairs, Mohammed Dingyadi, along with his Interior counterpart Rauf Aregbesola, briefed the media.

Aregbesola stated that the Kogi State Government and Dangote Group had achieved an understanding of the necessity of reopening the cement factory, and he urged both sides to uphold the understanding.

The minister said, "The council ordered the factory's quick reopening and suggested that any legal disputes be settled because the government was dedicated to creating jobs."

He emphasized once more that no state had been given permission to purchase automatic weapons and he encouraged due process to be followed.
