President Muhammadu Buhari has shared in the grief, following passing of former Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Dangote Cement, Joseph Makoju, who served as Special Adviser to two Presidents and Managing Director of National Electric Power Authority (Power Holding Company of Nigeria).
President Buhari condoles with family members, Government and people of Kogi State, colleagues and associates of the seasoned technocrat, who deployed his knowledge, skills and experience to the service of his country and humanity.
The President believes Makoju’s historic contributions to the development of the nation will always be remembered, particularly in the power and cement sectors, where he held notable positions, which include heading West Africa Portland Cement Company (WAPCO), part of Lafarge, and distinguished himself.
President Buhari prays for the repose of the departed soul, and God’s covering over his family.
