The Association of Drivers of Dangote Cement Transport, Obajana in Kogi State has directed all its members to boycott the transportation of cement to the South-East region of Nigeria.

The association said the decision was taken over the security situation in the region and in Akwa Ibom state in the South-South region.


A memo dated December 11, 2022, and sent by the drivers’ association to the company, said, “We kindly write this short notice to the company that we are returning some waybills of the southeast state Nigeria that we driver (sic) are not going to some part (sic) of southeast Nigeria due to ongoing situation of the site Nigeria those part (sic) of southeast they are as follows: 1. Enugu, 2. Anambra, 3. Abia, 4. Imo, 5. Ebonyi, 6. Akwa Ibom.”

Criminals enforcing sit-at-home orders in the South-East have in the past burnt trucks belonging to Dangote Cement and reportedly killed some of the company’s drivers.

This comes a few days after the leadership of some Northern groups involved in commercial activities between the North and South-East zone directed commodity traders and truck drivers to shun the zone over the incessant killing of their members by gunmen suspected to be members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).


Coordinator of the Northern Consensus Forum, Dr Auwal Abdullahi Aliyu said they declared a warning strike due to the constant killing of the northerners in the South East, adding that not less than 100 northerners were murdered in the zone within a week.

Aliyu claimed that the strike had started to have a good effect and that security agencies, northern state governors, and residents in the impacted zone had all been informed.

“We have blocked the roads linking the North to the East ranging from Benue, Nasarawa, Kwara and Plateau states among others, and the truck drivers are cooperating with us,” he had said.

SaharaReporters earlier reported how gunmen enforcing a purported five-day sit-at-home order in Enugu State attacked and burnt a police patrol vehicle in the New Market area last Saturday.

It was also reported that some supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) were also killed by gunmen for defying a kangaroo sit-at-home order in Anambra recently

Very good for the east security wise cos its dangote trucks they use in ferrying fulani marauders and other terrorist including their weapons to attacks indigenous people...!!! Same dangote trucks also helps in ferrying in northern beggers all over the country especially middlebelt and south region...!!!

Local producers of cement in the south east? Where are they?

Ibeto was there before dangote,he can go to hell.

Ibeto was there before dangote,he can go to hell.

Then why weren't you buying Ibeto instead of Dangote in the first place? Empty chest beaters!

they should not tolerate this , Just use this opportunity to boost BUA and LaFarge market share

Let him go first, I'm sure your tribe is one yeye tribe that can't stand alone.

Is he still producing?

Good. We have ibeto cement.

Good development to the enemies of south east but bad news dangote group as they are about to loose their biggest market share in the south east. Time for others in cement industry to get breathing space and make more money

Him dey give cement for free

Time for BUA to take over the lucrative SE market. Dangote allowed his trucks to be used in conveying terrorists from North to South. Instead of him to caution his drivers and monitor them strictly, he is resorting to knee Jack approach. By the time BUA and Larfage cement relegates him to the background, he will rush to reverse himself.

Dangote will lose

In fact him no fit.

If all cement producers stop sending cement to east, I trust m y people within 3 months local cement production will start.

Abii u want to test the ingenuity of SEasterners?

Moh247:
First it was food vendors from North, now Dangote trailer drivers, if Fuel Tanker drivers join, then Christmas would somehow in the East

Just imagine the senseless urchins supporting the bastard of iragbiji. Since when did fuel tankers start moving from North to South? Is the ports now in North? Are there functional refineries up north?

Olodo, fuel moves from South to North and not the other way round.

Meanwhile, I think Buhari should release Nnamdi Kanu so that all these unnecessary tensions will reduce. Stopping food or cattle from coming to the East will affect North as much as it will affect East, and the country's economy suffers it. Already, lots of food crops grown in the North perish if they're not evacuated to Southern markets, so there is no winner here.

LeoDeKing:
Seconded, 100%.

They will call it off in a few hours because they know those that buy their cements.

Left for you and your brown roof kingdoms, Dangote cement would have gone bankrupt by now.

I am celebrating Messi's victory and won't join you in bitterness and hate

Abeg find someone else

SLAP44:
Who cares?

Bua and Lafarge profits on the rise.

Don't mind them. Dangote will sack them all

FreedomArmy:
Joke of the century. As am typing right now Dangote trucks are still coming to the south east.
The worst mistake Dangote will make is to allow Bua and Lafarge to have leverage in the south East

You IPOB terrorists will still murder BUA truck drivers and eat their flesh, leading to another boycott of your region by them.

baretalk:
The south east will get the alienation it seeks

Fck ‘alienation’! If you’re seeking to give the south-east what they seek, then fully support a referendum on secession for the region! Quit speaking from both sides of the mouth by either keeping quiet when the murderous Nigerian army targets innocent agitators or cheering them on!

Bleep you and your referendum, it's not my bleeping business, am only stating the obvious.

SLAP44:


This will only help the economy of the south east as local producers fill the gap.

Na this chest-beating no dey let una get sense.

Yes.

They will emerge within a week na. You know na them sabi pass everybody for Naija.

Ibeto will spring up again

As for the one talking about fuel tanker drivers,can someone lecture him that majority of tank farm owners are IGBOS

Gradual isolation of the jihadi SE terrorist enclaves..


Una go learn...

Same thing you said about Fulani cows earlier on this year before your elders went on a begging spree. Stand alone my arse!

Nonsense which elders? Maybe you take association as Igbo elders joke on you. I hope you are ready to share blood like your Grand parents to stay attached... uncreative civil servant in nature.

So it’s the illiterate drivers and not the company itself. Amusing, because Dangote would not be so unwise to handover his govt given advantage in the SE to Ibeto cement. Let him first stop his drivers from ferrying terrorists and their weapons to the SS & SE!
