Dangote has denied involvement of any of its trucks involvement in any accident in Ogun State.
It stated that contrary 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 the truck does not belong to the company.
The truck bearing the logo of Dangote Flour was said to have been involved in an accident in Ogun State.
Refuting the claim by the Federal Road Safety Commission, the company 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.”
“The loss of lives in this instance is regrettable and saddening. The public is advised to take note of this clarification.”
