Lokoja – Dangote Cement Plc (Transport) has inaugurated the Dangote Articulated Truck Driving School in a courageous move to curb road traffic accidents among the company’s truck drivers.

The Academy, which was inaugurated on Wednesday at Obajana, Kogi State, by Dr Boboye Oyeyemi, Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), was first of its kind by any indigenous manufacturing company.

The new Academy, according to the Corps Marshal, is a significant step forward that will benefit not only the Dangote Group but Nigeria as a whole.

The country’s number one road safety official hailed Alhaji Aliko Dangote, President and Chief Executive of the Dangote Group, for taking “a big step” towards reducing truck accidents.

“This is what we’ve been waiting for. You made it. I have observed that Dangote has done a lot to address truck crashes and I must commend them for this,” Oyeyemi said.
