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.
