- Dangote Unveils BlocMaster Cement
Builders and other stakeholders have lauded the BlocMaster Cement that was formally launched by Dangote Cement Plc in Kano on Tuesday, describing it as extra strong and the best for block moulding in Nigeria.
Before it was unveiled, the innovative cement product had been adjudged as being ideal by engineers, builders and block moulders, due to its rapid setting within an hour, its strength and top quality.
Block makers in attendance at the unveiling of the product, according to a statement by Dangote Cement, lauded the company’s efforts and confirmed its strength and asserted that it was the best product for building construction for now.
Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, called on all Nigerians to patronise the new cement in order to help minimise the menace of building collapse in the country.
The governor, who was represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Alhaji Usman Alhaji, commended the management of the Dangote Group, adding that it had always been supportive in all sectors of the economy.
The Group Managing Director, Dangote Cement Plc, Joe Makoju, said the new brand was a product of years of deep research, adding that it had been tested and approved by builders nationwide.
According to him, it is strong and affordable to Nigerians, because of its rapid setting, especially during raining seasons.
