President Muhammadu Buhari has directed that Dangote Cement factory, Obajana, Kogi State, be reopened with immediate effect.

 

Buhari gave the directive while presiding over the National Security Council (NSC) meeting held at the Council Chambers of the State House, Abuja on Friday.


The Minister of Police Affairs, Mohammed Dingyadi, joined by his Interior counterpart, Rauf Aregbesola and the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Lucky Irabor, briefed reporters after the meeting.

 

 

A statement obtained by the National Association of Online Security News Publishers (NAOSNP), quoted Aregbesola as saying that an agreement had been reached between Kogi State Government and Dangote Group on the need to reopen the cement factory, urging both parties to respect the agreement.


The minister added that the council ordered immediate reopening of the factory and advised that all issues in contention be resolved legally as government was committed to providing employment.

 

He restated that no state had been authorized to acquire automatic rifles and urged that due process be followed.


The council also directed the Office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) in conjunction with the Office of the Secretary to Government of the Federation (OSGF) to set up a high-powered investigation committee into the crude oil theft in the Niger Delta with a view to unraveling those behind it.
