NASCON in a release signed by its company A. Samuel notified the Nigerian Exchange Limited and the investing public, that further to its announcement of August 30, 2023 in respect of the proposed merger of the three companies, a decision has been taken to suspend the said merger at this time.

“The suspension is due to the comments and recommendation of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) centred around the current non-operational status of Dangote Rice Limited.

“NASCON wishes to express its appreciation to all its stakeholders and will keep the public informed of any developments as they arise,” it stated.

It will be recalled that the three Companies proposed to merge their operation into a single entity.
