The federal government has affirmed the Dangote Group’s pivotal role in the country’s push towards industrialisation, as the company took centre stage at the ongoing Kaduna International Trade Fair. Acting Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr Dafang I. Sule, who represented President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr Jumoke Oduwole, expressed gratitude to the company for “doing a good job” in Nigeria.

The Dangote Group is one of the sponsors of the 46th Kaduna International Trade Fair, which was officially opened by the President on Saturday. The Federal Government’s commendation follows numerous accolades from stakeholders around the globe.

Dr Sule also informed participants that his ministry has been collaborating with the Dangote Group to advance government policies and programmes, one of which is the Backward Integration Programme.

“The quality of Dangote products is not in doubt, and that is why people patronise them. You can see that the company is growing every day. I think it is doing a very good job,” he added.
