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.
