Nigeria’s Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, inaugurated the 3Mta second production line at BUA’s Obu cement plant in Okpella, Edo state.

“This project is a big boost to the Nigerian economy and it will provide employment opportunity for the both skilled and unskilled youths of this state and the country at large,’’ he said and added that the plant’s capacity will help consolidate the country’s self-sufficiency in cement as well as providing a significant boost to national export capacity.

The second line will enter commercial production in 1Q18 and take the company’s total production capacity in Edo state to 6Mta.
