followed due process contrary to claims by the state government.Nonetheless, the state government on Wednesday, in a statement signed by Kingsley Fanwo, commissioner for information and communications, insisted that the company must present requisite proof of acquisition to the Kogi state panel on the acquisition.
It added that the Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi, thanked the citizens for their resoluteness in the ownership tussle between the Dangote Group and the state government.“While the state government recognises the right of the citizens to peaceful protest as we witnessed across the state yesterday; we urge the people to remain civil, law abiding and give room for constitutionalism,” the statement reads.
“To this end, the governor has directed that trucks loading cement that are impounded across the state be released with immediate effect to either return to the plant or go to their destinations peacefully.“As a state, we must retain the peaceful and business friendly environment that have attracted scores of investment giants to the state in the last seven years.
