Adeyemi told the participating journalists that the company has been having a robust relationship with its host communities.

He said only recently, the clinic at Iwaa community built by the Company under the Community Development Agreement with Mining communities of Oyo and Iwaa, as stipulated by the Nigerian Mining Act, was supplied with additional medical equipment.

Penultimate week, at the instance of Oyo community, he said the company laid the foundation for the construction of a block of 3 classrooms with offices, staff common room and toilets to facilitate the take-off of a UBE secondary school in the community, thereby saving the children from the stress of accessing secondary education at neighbouring communities.

During the foundation laying ceremony, a newly completed borehole was also commissioned.

At the event, the Baalo of Oyo, Oba Solomon Obahawu, commended the company for contributing to the development of his community.

The company had earlier this year trained and graduated no fewer than 40 women in fashion design in its drive for empowerment of women and youth.

Head of Social Performance, Dangote Cement Plc, Head Office, Mr. Wakeel Olayiwola, had said the empowerment was one in the series of several other interventions for host communities being executed by Dangote Cement Plc across Africa.

Olayiwola, expressed optimism that the graduates will create a chain of other graduates through apprenticeship, which will support job creation efforts in the communities around Kogi State.

Plant Director, Dangote Cement Plc, Obajana, Plant, Mr. JV Gungune, had told the journalists that the skill acquisition scheme was meant to support the government in its job creation efforts and ensure development of local economy of the communities. (vitalnewsngr.com)
