AshakaCem and Nigerian Army ramp up efforts in north east

Nigeria: AshakaCem and the Nigerian Army have scaled up efforts to rebuild the Northeast part of Nigeria, which has suffered devastating damage from the Boko Haram insurgency.

Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Tukur Yusuf Buratai and Chairman of AshakaCem Alhaji Suleiman Yahaya both spoke when the latter visited the former in his office in Abuja on 30 September 2015.

Lt Gen Buratai commended the management of AshakaCem for its philanthropic activities in the region, saying the cement firm has supported the country's war against the terrorists.

He described the attacks on the company last year as unfortunate, but urged its management not to relent in its effort at rebuilding the region.

Yahayah responded that his company was impressed by the security arrangement put in place around AshakaCem, even as he said the attacks had cost his company US$23m.

He promised that his company would step up its humanitarian efforts and would soon make a major announcement on its next move. AshakaCem is the largest employer in the Northeast.
