AJAOKUTA STEEL COMPANY |
Minister of
Information, Labaran Maku, says, Federal government of nigeria, has promised to
revive the Ajaokuta Steel Company in Kogi State.
Maku made the
promise when the National Good Governance Tour team visited the complex in
Ajaokuta.
Maku, also the
Supervising Minister of Defence, commended the workers for their faith in the
plant and urged them to remain steadfast and continue to keep activities at the
factory alive.
Earlier, the Sole
Administrator of the company, Joseph Isah, told the tour team that the company was
a huge investment opportunity for interested private sector players.
He said the
federal government’s agenda for economic transformation could not be realised
if the steel company was not revived.
According to Isah,
the steel plant had tremendous linkage and multiplier effect on the various
sectors of the national economy that needs to be harnessed.
He said that
contrary to speculations, most of the machines in some sections of the factory
were in workable condition.
