Chairman of BUA Group, Alhaji Abdulsamad Rabiu, has thrown his weight behind Dangote Cement Plc’s reduction in the cost of cement from about N1,700 to N1,000 a bag, representing a 40 per cent price cut, which was announced at the weekend.

According to Rabiu, he has always advocated a reduction in the cost of cement so that more Nigerians can have access to the product and realise their dream of owning houses of their own.

“It is against this background that I commend Alhaji Aliko Dangote for this patriotic initiative which is long overdue,” he said.

He further revealed that he had an extensive telephone conversation with Dangote on the issue and encouraged him on the initiative.

“What Alhaji Dangote has done today is significant. I am very pleased about it because it would make the cost of the product more easily affordable to Nigerians. With this price reduction, more consumers will be able to buy the product and subsequently drive up demand and in turn increase market share for industry players.

“I hereby urge all cement producers to emulate Dangote and bring down the cost of cement. There is absolutely no reason for a bag of cement to cost so much.

“Despite the infrastructure challenges being faced by the manufacturing sector of the Nigerian economy, it does not justify the high cost of cement.

“On our part, I have already directed all our plants to follow suit and implement the new price regime. We still believe that more can be done to bring down the price even further for the benefit of Nigerians,” Rabiu stated.

The BUA Group chairman stressed that there was really no reason for the price of cement to exceed N1,000 per bag, bearing in mind the massive success of the backward integration policy implemented 12 years ago, in which tens of billions of dollars were directly and indirectly injected into the Nigerian cement industry with Dangote Cement accounting for the larger share of the contribution.

This has seen cement national productivity rising from a mere 2.2 million metric tonnes per annum (mtpa) to over 30 million mtpa in the last 10 years, Rabiu observed.

BUA Group acquired Edo Cement Company Limited three years ago and has spent over $500 million in putting up an ultra-modern three million mtpa production line which is billed to be commissioned in the first quarter of next year.

Upon completion of this plant, the total annual production capacity will rise from 500,000 mtpa to 3.5 million mtpa.

In addition, the company also has controlling equity in Sokoto Cement Company also known as Cement Company of Northern Nigeria Plc (CCNN). The plant is presently being expanded with a 1.5 million mtpa line. Work is currently in progress and will be commissioned early 2016.

onihaxy:
Abeg. Somebody should update me when the price becomes 1k at cement outlets. I rushed there today to buy but I was told its still 1,650 oooo

Feel ya pain bro. Me self enter area make I confirm. The woman say dem never hear. In reality that price will remain at 1750 for the masses because why ? Only those wey dey go depo fit buy at 1k. The ones for my area say na old stock them get


Till 2015 cement price will remain 1750 quote that I said it . the real masses won't benefit from the slashed price. So all those saying thank you dangote. Na your right. Those wey dey thank Jona. Una no get foresight

talktimi:
you have a point there though people who buy in large quantities eg a lorry load upwards prefer to buy directly from depots at wholesale price

I agree with you even though I was talking about the poor masses who buy 5 -1 bags to build their houses not the ones who do business

Bobbyjay001:
Na to do d ffg in slow motion 1. Got drunk wt Star lager beer
2. Get home
3. Remove my clothes and trousers
4. Go 2d front of my house
5. Roll on d floor and shout "e gba mi o"

Such can't happen here in Nigeria.

Buhahaha. I laughed so hard lol cracking be up with laffs. Thanks bra

Wind of change is blowing. Even film trick don dey happen for real life . so like play like play cement can fit remain or reduce from 1050

Bobbyjay001:
Na to buy abt 5 trailers and keep till after election, when d price would skyrocket back to it's normal price. Then i wud sell at d skyrocketed price (#1800 or so) and enjoy my profit. Now dangote,o ya send 5 trailers to me here in Ondo now,I'l pay you in June 2015. Am serious o.

And if the price falls further ?

talktimi:
The fact is cement is overpriced in Nigeria and so someone like Dangote can easily crash the price without it affecting his business.

Housing boom anyone ?

House boom if you actually had money to buy

Besides. Those who sell will claim that they have the old # 1750 in stock. But its a nice move by dangote

LastProphet:
Sorry young nigerians born in the 80's. And to the pdp laptop squad (who i even know one personally-igala boy living on airport road abuja with senior brother living on gbemisola street ikeja) may God almighty who sees the suffering of nigerians under corrupt gej and his wife punish u all abundantly until u repent

Prophet. You too nice. You undid the punishment by asking them to repent . Buhari is a threat to PDP's tyranny and they know it . I don't see much of national cake getting to the e-warriors or grassroots for that matter.

Let Shoeless man from otuoke go . we don tire for the stealing that's not corruption , and power that's too stable after sales of phcn and the very good roads and the new train tracks that covers whole of Nigeria and of the 23 airports and all the graduates being trained abroad and offered great jobs

Jonathan has done enough damage

Descartes:
We all know that Buhari is clueless.
But his fans will not admit it.
Imagine a presidential aspirant who wants to rule the most populous black nation spewing such in a public domain.

Atleast PDP and Metuh have something to campaign against him

So Buhari shouldnt talk about other topics ?

ademega:
I saw fayose telling GEJ ,.. Ur Mr president sir , dont try it oh , that was what fayemi did and cost him 16-0 and u know already we are praying for 5 out of 36 before please dont make it 0 sir . You know these are the major jobs you government provided for both graduates and illiterates alike .
On a more serious note , i congratulate all ekiti graduates that are okada riders . It would have been hell . At the same time dont trust them . Where is the 36 airports promised?
Well , he tried for the following achievements

Mr president should continue till forever,if possible rule after life self . He has giving us at least 20 hour constant and stable electricity in all parts of the country (if only for this achievement self, he has done well, there is need for more shout of GEJ till 2019 by all and sundry), schools are doing fine , no strike ,the standard can compete not only in Africa but Europe and America , students are now trooping in from all over Africa to get standard education, the standard of living is too much oky , can't u see? people are not traveling out again . Go and see the arrival arena/terminal at the airport people are rushing down in millions to be partaker of the nations goodies and national cake. See our roads very smooth, most especially the roads in the east . See our security , u can move to anywhere anytime of the day without fear . Nite culture is now back to our country .unemployment is a thing of the past , we are thinking of how to start giving visa to Ghanaians and other African countries to come help us with our dirty and menial jobs in our factories. Water is everywhere , we are even missing pure water and bottle water. See how corruption has gone away in virtually in all sectors, see the faces of corrupt leaders in prison. Gone are the days we import our own exported crude oil. In fact ,u can see how much we get a liter compare to four years ago. See the diversification of our economy,no more dependency on our oil. Our hospitals are now receiving rich patients on like before when our leaders and big men get treatment and die in foreign hospitals. This man has done magic , he must be from another planet . Pls u can add to these numerous achievements of our president. MR PRESIDENT KEEP DOING IT! We want more of these . GEJ till 20we want him to stop ruling us .

No corruption in his government. Just a few people staling from govt

mickyarams:
Look at the little ape that has been terrorising the country. They should chop off his joystick as well so he will be useless with his 72virgins in his after life.

Shekau is not as fat or as built as the dead one here

Shekau released another video claiming he married the girls off to his soldiers

Any terrorist killed should be given a special / open burial .
[size=15pt]
Let them be buried with pigs [/size]in their caskets or their mats

As you can see , The news is confirmed by AFP , Yahoo news, Shekau is not dead, All those arguing differently, you are entitled to your opinion, However if / when military strike kills a rebel leader and its on the news,Terrorists appoint another leader, not claim its the same old one, that's how terror works, they are not trying to form '' i cant die'' they show that if you cut one head several others grow to replace the old one.

for instance

(Reuters) - Syrian Islamist insurgent group Ahrar al-Sham has appointed a new leader and military chief after their predecessors were killed in a blast on Tuesday, a video statement from the group said.


JOHANNESBURG - Somalia's Islamic extremist rebels, al-Shabaab has named Ahmed Omar as the groups new leader. A commander of the group confirmed their previous leader was killed by a U.S. airstrike. Godane was also known as Mukhtar Abu Zubeyr and was the spiritual leader of the al-Qaida-linked group. Al-Shabaab also stated that it remains aligned with al-Qaida, after there was speculation that the group would be affected by a power struggle over the selection of a new leader. Ahmed Omar was appointed following the death of Ahmed Abdi Godane. The attack took place 170 kilometers south of Mogadishu, where al-Shabaab trains its fighters.

With the death of the leader of the Caucasus Emirate, Doku Umarov in March of this year, and the subsequent appointment of Ali Abu Mukhammed as his successor, it is worth assessing how this change in leadership is impacting on the broader Caucasian insurgent movement, their tactics and intentions as well as their strategy going forwards.

We Don't Know Danladi Ahmadu, Expect More Deadly Attacks"-Boko Haram Leader Shekau Says In New Video


Boko Haram sect mercurial leader, Imam Abubakar Shekau in the new video released this night has finally put to rest doubt regarding a man, "Danladi Ahmadu" that has been parading himself as Secretary General of the sect


Boko Haram sect mercurial leader, Imam Abubakar Shekau in the new video released this night has finally put to rest doubt regarding a man, "Danladi Ahmadu" that has been parading himself as Secretary General of the sect.

Danladi Ahmadu has been presented in Nigeria's and international media mostly on the VOA Hausa service as the man negotiating with President Goodluck Jonathan's scribe, Mr. Hassan Tukur and Chadian President, Idris Derby promising to release of the over 200 Chibok girls in purported ceasefire talks.

Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau
Shekau in the video watched by one of our sources in Maiduguri said, "We don't know that liar and fake Danladi Ahmadu, we never met this liar with his character as he is claiming.

"We have nothing to do with him, and our war is not ending, expect more, what you are seeing is just little. There is no retreat in this Jihad; Allah is with us, and we are succeeding."

SaharaReporters had this week quoted a senior Nigerian military officer who said the military are in possession of intelligence report detailing plans by thee sect to launch deadly attacks in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states.

Few days later many villages were captured by the sect in both Borno and Adamawa state including Mubi, the second most populated town in Adamawa state. Also, earlier today members of the sect detonated a bomb at a busy bus station in Gombe killing at least 30 people.

oduastates:
One of Jonathan thieves aka aides probably organised a profitable racket on the ceasefire.
We do not call him a clueless dummy for nothing. Someone has been smiling to the bank.

The leader of Boko Haram sect, Abubakar Shekau, has released a new video, a military source in Maiduguri confirmed to SaharaReporters.


Boko Haram militants released a new video today, sources say

According to the source, in the new video Shekau dismissed the much-publicized ceasefire with the Nigerian government as announced by Nigeria's military chief, Alex Badeh, whose hometown of Vintim was captured today in Adamawa State.

On the 200th day since they were kidnapped, Shekau also said the 219 Chibok secondary schoolgirls have been married to members of the sect.

Shekau further said some of the girls, who earlier refused to convert, have finally accepted Islam.


Two rhetoric questions

1 i thought Shekau was dead and those people who love Nigerian army fought me virtually to tell me im dumb to assume Shekau is dead for real


2 i thought they already reached an agreement with Boko Haram in Saudi


3 and most irrelevant , Where's that 15 mil that S.A returned

My reply may be a little late , but I hope it helps

Love is doing crazy things for people , but then hurting or deceiving isn't part of love

As others have said earlier. She already left , she was just waiting for the phone .


Those saying you had sex worth 130k are probably just joking but if they mean it. That's a really dum.b way to look at life .


I'll do anything for a faithful , loyal chick as long as I've been loyal but if I sense attempt to mugu me. I'll do anything

You said she left 2 days after, you don't meet people a few days and start using their pics as DP


Finally in a not so distant future I for see her coming back . That other guy probably is still a shining star when /if she's gotten what she wants she'll come back begging

And I think using that other guy's picture as DP is a quick way to earn trust . A game is on. A guy is being setup .


Sell the phone. Pay back your debt and move on
