Dangote - October 2016
Dangote’s lawsuit against Ibeto Cement Co has been adjourned to 1 November 2016 pending a decision by the Court of Appeal on the matter. Dangote is claiming that Ibeto is enjoying an undue advantage by evading taxes. Meanwhile, Nigeria’s federal government is contending that Dangote is creating a monopoly in the country’s cement sector, wiping out fair competition and a level playing field.
