Amid the scarcity and unavailability of the BUA Cement reportedly sold for N3,500 per bag, the Chief Executive Officer of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu has reiterated that the product will maintain the N3,500 per bag price from January 2024.
In an extensive investigation Ripples Nigeria had reported that the N3,500 price per bag of cement appears a farce as the product was largely unavailable in most locations visited while in the few locations that have the product, it sells for as high as N5,200 to N5,500 per bag.
Findings showed that several challenges, mainly transportation of the products from the two factories in Edo and Sokoto states to respective locations have impeded the distribution of the product and the aim of the company to sell at the projected price.
