Amaka also revealed that the West African Ceramic Company since its establishment, remained the highest employer of Kogi indigenes saying that “over twenty thousand of its employees comes from Kogi state”

According to her, aside offering employment opportunities to Kogi people, the company is equally providing Corporate Social Responsibilities to the host communities spanning through : award of scholarships, medical outreaches, succour to flood victims and other assistances to communities across the state.

The Convener of the Kogi Built Environment and Building Materials Exhibition, Engineer Oladipo Bayode recalled that the WACL through its Managing Director, Bhaskar Rao has been partnering with this event since the Inaugural edition in 2017

Bayode called for the co-operation of the host community and urged the people to continue to assist in the provision of logistic support for the smooth operation of the company in Kogi state

He explained that when Made in Nigeria products are being patronised locally and exported to international market, it will help in shoring up the Nigeria’s dwindling economy.
