Only recently, he said the company paid over N500 million to the out-growers for the sugarcane they produced under the DSR Numan out-growers scheme.

The current capacity of the DSR Numan refinery of 4,800 Tons of Cane Per Day (TCD), he said, is being upgraded to 6,000 TCD by end of 2023, 9,800TCD by 2024 and subsequently to 15,000TCD.

According to Dan-Musa, Dangote Sugar Refinery in Numan has contributed immensely to the plan to achieve the Backward Integration programme of the Federal Government.

“Dangote Sugar Refinery is Nigeria’s largest producer of household and commercial sugar” he said.

President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, had said that upon completion of the BIP projects, the DSR will be able to create about 300,000 direct and indirect jobs, with positive multiplier effects on the national economy.

Speaking during the media tour, Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director, Chinnaya Sylvain Judex, said the expansion drive has reached a significant mileage.

According to him, the company has acquired state of the art machines to support its production process, adding that it facilities are environmentally friendly.

Judex said its “Backward Integration goal is to become a global force in sugar production, by producing 1.5M MT/PA of refined sugar from locally grown sugar cane for the domestic and export markets. ”

He said the company operates an independent power system, and that excess energy will be redirected to the national grid.

” The power, from the Dangote Sugar Refinery, Numan, when redirected to the National Grid has the potential to contribute immensely to the rapid development of the economy of the entire Northeast,” he said.

Judex added that the energy will bring about accelerated development and industrialization in the region.

Meanwhile, the Paramount Ruler of Bachama Kingdom in Adamawa State, Dr. Daniel Ismailia has commended the company for its numerous Corporate Social Responsibility activities in the host communities.

The traditional ruler spoke while addressing a team of journalists from the state who visited his office.

He commended the company for creating thousands of job opportunities for the people of Adamawa State, and Nigeria, adding that his Kingdom is the biggest beneficiary of the company.

The Executive Director, Climate Africa Media Initiative and Centre (CAMIC) Mr..Aliu Akoshile commended the Hama Bachama for providing the peaceful environment needed to do business in his domain.

The State Chairman of the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ), Comrade Ishaka Donald Dedan, commended the traditional ruler for always playing a fatherly role.

He added that the Adamawa people are proud that the company has provided jobs for their people.

In his earlier presentation, Prof. John Ngamsa of Modibbo Adama University, Yola, urged journalists to invest in environmental journalism with all seriousness because the environment is man’s only protective territory. (vitalnewsngr.com)
