Dangote Saves 3,000 Nigerian Jobs After Buying Back Former Subsidiary


Africa's richest man is making good his promise to help Nigerian government in its efforts to sustain development and relief the burden on the suffering masses as it makes another milestone.
Aliko Dangote
 
Dangote Industries Limited (DIL) has explained why it bought back its former subsidiary, Tiger Branded Consumer Goods (TBCG). It said its action is to prevent the company from dying and also save the job of over 3,000 Nigerians, reports The Nation.
 
According to the report, DIL was approached by Tiger Brands to acquire its 65.7 per cent shares of TBCG Limited. While some stakeholders have questioned the rationale behind the investment decision by DIL, sources close to the Dangote Group said the company had to consider the repurchase of TBCG so as to keep the company as a going concern, which preserves value for the minority retail shareholders. The move also secured direct employment for over 3,000 employees.
 
“Going by every indication, the future of the company was very doubtful and that was risky for the employees, which are over 3,000 Nigerians apart from others who benefit from the company’s services through other ancillary services. The return of DIL is therefore, a big relief and good decision to save the jobs of the staff of TBCG,” a market operator, who declined to be named, said

The kind of injustice, malpractice and corruption going on in that school is unprecedented.  The latest one is the battle for the VC's office, Since the present VC Prof. Emmanuel Kucha will be leaving by November. He has left the school damaged without recognition. I wish you can visit or talk to any of your sources in makurdi.  Anyway, more than 11 people contested for the position, as at the day before yesterday, they were reduced to 9, who went in for the final rounds of vetting and interview yesterday. The outcome was released and the favorite candidate came first. That was the news yesterday, but this morning (today) the result have changed, due to external politically corrupt individuals who call themselves stakeholders in the state, who had never one day contributed to the success of the students or staff of that school.  To come and force a ...
