The legal action was instituted through Benue Investment and Property Company Limited (BIPC) headed by it’s Managing Director, Dr Raymond Asemakaha.

Speaking during press conference on Monday in Makurdi, Benue State Capital, Asemakaha said the state is demanding allotment of 111,438, units of shares values at N65.8 billion, being the entitlements of the state accumulated shares over the years.

Asemakaha said the state will explore all legal means to ensure “our entitlement is reclaimed hence Dangote Cement PLC is indisposed to show commitment to the case.”

He explained that the shares allotment dated back to 2005 , saying that Dangote Cement Company consciously refused to own up to its obligation.
