The management of the Dangote group say our attention has been drawn to some online media reports that a truck conveying petroleum product, which was involved in a fatal crash that claimed several lives, belongs to Dangote Flour.
In a statement sent to The AmehNews and endorsed by ANTHONY CHIEJINA, GROUP CHIEF BRANDING AND COMMUNICATION OFFICER (GCBCO) saying The truck bearing the logo of Dangote Flour was said to have been involved in an accident in Ogun State.
However, he added that contrary to a report by the Federal Road Safety Commission, the said truck does not belong to the Dangote Group.
“It should be noted that Olam International Ltd, makers of Crown Flour products, acquired Dangote Flour in 2019 in a widely publicized deal. The company now fully belongs to Olam.
CHIEJINA stated that the loss of lives in this instance is regrettable and saddening. The public is advised to take note of this clarification.
