7 February 2023Nigeria’s Dangote Industries Limited (DIL) has signed an agreement with China Sinoma International Engineering to build a cement plant with total annual capacity of six million tonnes in Itori, Ogun State, local newspaper Premium Times reported on Wednesday.
The new integrated cement plant will increase DIL’s local capacity to 41.25 million tonnes per annum and total African capacity to 57.6 million tonnes per annum.
