Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by ektbear: 3:29pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Olayemi R. Ibrahim28 November 2011 Dangote Group's new cement plant sited in Ibeshe, Ogun State, will soon be commissioned to produce about 6 million metric tons of cement per annum and this would create thousands of jobs, the Group said. The new plant will create thousands of direct and indirect jobs for Nigerians, a statement from the company said. The Group said that with the commissioning, the country will end importation of cement as total supply of cement into the market by the manufacturers will by far surpass the total demand of cement in the country. With the commissioning of the Ibeshe plant and the conclusion of the third line in Obajana Plant of the Dangote Cement, the company will have an annual cement production of over 20 metric tons as against the total demand of 17 million metric tons for the country. Meanwhile, the 14 host communities to the Dangote Cement, Ibese plant in Ogun State have lauded the entrepreneurial spirit of Alhaji Aliko Dangote and promised to maintain peace for successful operation of the factory. They said the decision by Dangote to site the plant in their territory must be reciprocated by maintaining good relationship with the company and ensuring that peace reigns for the benefit of all the parties. Speaking with newsmen at Ibese, Chairman of the Joint Host Communities Forum, Dr. Hezekiah Idowu explained that the irreducible minimum that the communities could give to show appreciation for the establishment of the Dangote Cement Plant is to ensure that harmonious relationship exists between the host communities and the cement company. He stated that all groups, traditional rulers and the youths in the 14 host communities have met and agreed that they would do all within their power to see that the yet to be commissioned cement plant operates in an atmosphere of peace. http://allafrica.com/stories/printable/201111280347.html |

Between this and the recent Lafarge factory, looks like Ogun State will be the cement capital of at least West Africa. |

@ekt_bear A big thank you to Dangote (the man you guys like to criticize) will be in order don't you think? On behalf of the people of the Southwest, we wish to thank Alhaji Dangote for investing in our own corner of the country. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by ektbear: 3:48pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
I recognize the good that he is doing, but just am not convinced it outweighs the evil. Anyway, who is to say in a liberalized economy we wouldn't even get more investment? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by igbo2011(m): 3:53pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
This is good, we need more people like him. Who invest their oney into Africa instead of abroad. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by igbo2011(m): 3:54pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
ekt_bear:What evils does he do? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by hercules07: 3:57pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
What evils does he do, he imports cement, lafarge, eagle cement, ibeto cement and others do too, he employs far more people than the others. |

I never hear this sort of news from those Ibetos and co, also groaning in the background about marginalisation |

Many people who indulged in castigating Alh. Dangote are virtually doing so because of outright hatred and jealousy. As some would put it " He is being used by politician to siphon our money" good, how many of you can be trusted to be used without betraying those sponsors? Many politicians are investing our money abroad because of undue criticism by so called Nigerians. Does it mean that, when someone is making progress in his/her career, he/she has to put down his life before blind Nigerians would appreciate his contribution(s)? Am begging to believe that, if my Father or our fathers did or contributed half of Alh. Dangote's contribution, I believe Nigeria would have faired better. In a nut shell, lets try to appreciate individuals who deem it fit to add value to their country. Alh Dangote is one individual I will continue to respect, any day, any time. God bless Nigeria. |

And some ppl r asking if he deserve d second highest award. He employs more ppl dan any other investor, he still invest more in the southwest and they still hate him the more. Dangote is a true son of the soil, a real kano man and a fulfilled Nigerian. Haterz pls neva disappoint |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by Afam4eva(m): 5:23pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Ogun state is now the cement capital of Nigeria simply because a cement factory was built there. Common sense is very far from some people. All the same, it's good for Ogun state and Nigeria. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by BCuZiMBlaCk(m): 5:35pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Good for them |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 5:48pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Funkymallam:Where did you get that from, or u are just posting that from your head afam4eva: Shut the F up What business has it to u if he calls Ogun the cement capital ? Limestone deposit are in high concentration in Ogun and Kogi, thus he is only wishing big. Is there anything wrong in that ? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by Afam4eva(m): 5:51pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
alj_harem: Hide your face, mumu. So, because Ogun has a high concentration of limestones, that makes it the cement capital of west Africa. Dude, the joke is on you. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 5:53pm On Nov 28, 2011 |

Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by Afam4eva(m): 5:58pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
alj_harem: Who's envious? I corrected an assertion and you came to defend the same assertion that you're claiming you don't agree with. Who's the fool now. Your brain is becoming more useless by the day. if you don't have anything serious to contribute, just shut your face and sit on your hand. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:03pm On Nov 28, 2011 |

Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by jason123: 6:03pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Afam is right! I'm with you! |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by jason123: 6:05pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Alh Harem, can you pls shut it?! Who is a mere factory going to make Ogun the cement capital of Nigeria. To me, that's a wrong statement. Some of you guys are delusional. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by jason123: 6:06pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
alj_harem: How was he tribalistic?? He gave his opinion, you too give yours, chikena! To me, you are the tribalist here. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by Afam4eva(m): 6:10pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
alj_harem: So, i should be saying only positive things about Ogun state in order not to sound tribal. See how your brain works. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by ektbear: 6:11pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
Which state produces more cement than Ogun? Ibeshe has a capacity of 6 million tons per year. I don't know off-hand the capacity of Lafarge's sites in Ogun. But what other states are contenders? And of those, which produces more? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:12pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
jason123: I think you and afam are being more stu.pid by the day A mod cannot be throwing insults any how at a poster . it is morally wrong Moreover where did he get his silly statment from if not for the "pull him down mentallity" jason123: SMH, what an ideeiot Extensive limestone deposits in the area can last for some five hundred years according to scientists. The multi-million naira cement factory in Sagamu is the largest cement factory in West Africa. Both this factory and Ewekoro cement factory depend on the local limestone resources for raw materials. Other mineral resources available include chalk, phosphate, high quality stones and gravel for construction works. The region also has industries involved in the production of beer, bicycle tyres, ceramic goods, high quality clay bricks, carpets and clothing materials. http://www.tradeinvestsa.co.za/pls/cms/ti_regout.region?p_rid=377 http://www.nigeriagalleria.com/Nigeria/States_Nigeria/Ogun_State.html from Nigeria's website http://www.nigerianational.com/-states/104-ogun-state |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:15pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
afam4eva: who cares what u say about Ogun, You did not get ur facts right before uttering those words as "what makes ogun the cement capital" That is the sort of pull down mentality that has held us back for years. See how ur brain works |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by jason123: 6:15pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
^^^ Guy, the reason why you are bitter, I don't know. Afam has a right to give an opinion as he likes whether right or wrong. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by Afam4eva(m): 6:17pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
ekt_bear: I'm really not trying to dispute anything with you. Infact, it will be a good thing if Ogun state is actually the largest producer of cement in West Africa. But my appeal to you is that you should always endeavour to provide proof when you make bogus statements. |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:17pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
ekt_bear: Processing is different from deposite I would reckon that Kogi produces more Limestone than Ogun but in terms of the factory that actually process it to cement, then ogun is it. fact |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:19pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
jason123: did you read my post and links or u are just playing dumb. You don't give the pulldown impression and expect me not to react I have done it for every group on ths forum, what ticked me off is afam a mod who is tribalsitic. who does that ? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by ektbear: 6:20pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
afam4eva: I only commented to clarify for jason123's sake. In case you haven't noticed, I don't really pay any attention to your posts or remarks. Jason, looks like Lafarge does 4.5 million+ (or at least, this is my interpretation of the sentence): https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-706728.0.html So that is 10.5 million+ for Ogun State. Which state produces more? |
Re: Dangote's New Cement Factory To Create More Jobs by aljharem3: 6:26pm On Nov 28, 2011 |
ekt_bear: thank you ignore the mumu we should be supportive of each other not trying to rubbish each others achivement The dude displays this inferiority complex that annoys me each time he comments on issues other than his people. lets think here, it someone claim Ogun is the cement capital, and u disagree, Simply do so and we can debate on it Not by insulting the poster that said it all in the names of envy, very annoying. |
