Dangote To Construct Roads In 14 Ogun Communities

 

As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility in the area of infrastructural development, Dangote Cement Plc has commenced the construction and rehabilitation of roads bordering 14 host communities within Yewa Land in Ogun State.
The novel project which would be implemented in three phases began about a month ago following approvals from the federal ministry of works and the state government on the design and layout of the plan for the area.
The first phase of the project now in full swing, has led to the construction of 8 km stretch of world class, hard concrete road from Ibese to Ilaro junction, demonstrating the superiority of concrete roads over bitumen/asphalt variant and also supporting the group’s campaign for more durable concrete roads in the country.
The manager in charge of the Ibese road project, Engineer Auwalu Halliru, praised the management of Dangote Cement for the best in class road construction project which he said has never been witnessed in any part of the South West before

He also said that the host communities stand to benefit alot from the second and third phase of the project which will ensure the construction of 25 km road stretch of interlocking concrete stones from Itori to Ibese road and from Ibese to Abeokuta road respectively.
