Yes it should be prosecuted through the court but tax evasion is a criminal offence and not a civil matter.
Taich:
Industrial disputes are civil matter that should be handled by court but no, my black brothers want answers ASAP, no regard for due process.

One thing is clear, Dangote will be fine heads or tail same as Kogi state governor. But for the workers whom are about to lose their jobs because of the stand off, may God be with you and grant you the wisdom to prevail.

Now it sounds good because you are thinking of bit as a just fight, watch till the end and you will discover it is all about the selfish interest of those in power.
Again it is important to note that this kind of actions scares investors and should rather be handled in a better way

The issue is not only tax evasion...!!

That cement factory started off as Kogi Cement Company and dangote according to findings use the C of O of the land which belong to kogi state to take a loan of over 60billion for construction then turn around to claim the company to be his own....no paper document to show any agreement anywhere that he purchased the factory from kogi state...Dangote have been dodging and now trying to use association as a front to get pity...!!!

Dangote should go to kogi and show the paper that show clearly he is the owner of the company simple...!! Why all these talk from both sides of his mouth...? He thought he is invisible after riding on the back of this nation to become a billionaire via shady business activities...!!

Can't you see that what the state want is more than tax, they are with one side of the mouth (fanwo actually) saying tax evasion an on the other side of the mouth saying it is theirs.

There is more to this whole thing than we the spectators know.
Yahaya Bello, why is it now that ur tenure is ending that u suddenly realized that the company was acquired illegally?
I am more than 95 percent sure that u can't finish this fight and at the same time u can't win it.
Out of all the problems in ur state, Dangote cement is ur no one problem? Do u know how many families that u want to take off their table during this ur temporary madness.
Lastly, can kogi state govt effectively manage the factory?
Collect ur tax in peace, I support that and forget about collecting Dangote factory. Na elephant dream be that.
Do you know the additional families that Kogi state government would have been feeding if Dangote has been paying his tax

Dangote is a thief, stupid bastard HE DONT LIKE PAYING TAX, because he is a northern muslim government have been protecting him and pardon his tax aversion.

Kogi state government shouldn't have killed innocent Nigerians, but locking the company or even taking it over is good.

Dongote dont like competition that's why he will used his northern connect to destroy prospective competitor

What did he steal from Kogi state
You actually believe he illegally acquired the cement company but somehow got his hands on the C of O?
I am not saying he did but couldn't he have gotten the C of O through the typical Nigerian "Paddy Paddy" arrangement while the then powers that be would be bribed! Many shady transactions go on in government circles in this country so while I will not condemn Dangote yet; I will equally not be too quick to rule out underhand dealings.

Kogi state governor lack decorum. Can they manage it if given back? No.

And I thought issue has been resolved cos I still see Dangote bus take staff to work everyday. I even did yesterday.

Read my comment very well. I said if it's all about tax, the state govt should go ahead and collect their tax, I am in support of that.

Kogi people have a reputation of being bad belle.

There are some states in this country that hate others people succeeding in their place anywhere in Igbo land if you are not an indigine the local law and people will be hostile to you. Same as middle belt.

But come to SW your investment are protected.

Another irrelevant news to divert attention & dowse election fever!

Next thing is that Arise/channels TV will invite Dangote & Kogi gov to interviews to tell their stories etc. Another planned topic to waste time for a month because Dangote refused to drop election money for some politicians.

Money wasn't coming in like it used to, I.e 2015 & 2019 are diff from 2022 economy wise.

If u knw u knw undecided

Hmmm. I don't think Dangote will be so silly to acquire a company from a state without something concrete.
Let's see how it goes sha

"....his is aside from its substantial budget for corporate social responsibility outside of taxes...."

Please show world any community service from Dangote to the state. Most of road. Network within KOGI and Nigeria at large were destroyed by her heavy duty trucks and yet no givingback to the said community he vandalised to swell his account.

Are you from Kogi? How well do you know the story apart from the jargon you put here? Yahaya Bello have been fighting this course since day 1., since Dangote remained adamant he has to go this way. I advise you do thorough research before making comments on issues please

Im not in support of closure of the plant because of mega loses to all concerned but i will take my views from a different perspective;

1. This is resolvable in a boardroom

2. What is Dangote Group shying away from

3. Has the Dangote Group defaulted on the terms of agreement prior to take over and expansion of the plant.

4. Does Yaha Bello want a percentage of the plant's earning directly to himself.

5. Are investor interests clashing with the state?

6. The taxes are not hidden and conflicts in payment are resolvable by representatives of both parties.

The Dangote Obajana Cement Plant is a strategic plant both to the owners, Kogi State Government and the nation at large.

All parties involved should thread with caution.

DANGOTE GROUP should declare a FORCE MAJEURE on the plant for now pending resolution of this dispute.

Acts that can impact its share price should be avoided and lots of businesses will be impacted directly or indirectly negatively.

Finally when you give arbitrary waivers or surpress competitors, this is what you get.

You still have to go to the court, no one is allowed under the constitution to be a judge and a jury. Kogi should go to court.
