The Kogi State Government has warned the Dangote Group against venting its frustration on the State Government in the ongoing Obajana Cement ownership tussle, especially as regards the fire incident that occurred in the early hours of Monday.
In a statement signed by the State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Fanwo, the Government advised the Dangote Group and its image makers to focus on “proving its ‘total ownership’ of Obajana Cement Company rather than chasing shadows”.
He said the Group’s latest attempt to malign the state was a desperate one, insisting that the government had a “well defined channel of communication that is known to the public”.
Fanwo said the current struggle over the ownership of the Company was not that of an individual but a collective agitation by indigenes of the state who had felt short-changed for too long as regards the subject matter.
