President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote and Yahaya Bello, Governor of Kogi, have met at the presidential villa on Monday.
Lifestyle Nigeria reports that the meeting, which had Ibrahim Gambari, Chief of Staff to the President, and Abdullahi Sule, Governor of Nasarawa, is over the recent tussle for ownership of the Dangote Cement factory in Obajana, Kogi state.
The meeting is said to have begun at 4pm.
The development comes days after the Kogi house of assembly ordered the sealing of the factory following agitations by indigenes who raised questions about the ownership of the company.
However, during an attempt to seal the factory on October 5, a shooting incident reportedly occurred.
The plant was eventually sealed off.
Meanwhile, the Kogi state panel set up to look into the acquisition of the Obajana Cement Plant has said the purported transfer of the facility to Dangote Cement was not “proper”.
