The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has intervened in the raging controversy between Dangote Group and BUA Group over a mining site located in Okpella area of Edo State.
Africa’s richest man and chairman of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, owns Dangote industries limited, the producer of Dangote Cement, while business mogul, Abdulsamad Rabiu owns the BUA Group, producer of BUA cement. Both are natives of Kano.
The conflict over the rightful ownership of Mining Lease No 2541 between the duo has been on in the past few weeks, with both sides engaging in accusations and counter accusations, including name dropping in the media.
A competent source said the Emir has asked the two industry magnates to bury their hatchet and desist from further engaging in media war. The source said the Emir told the businessmen that the raging controversy was counterproductive.
It was gathered that the Emir who is out of the country at the moment, assured that once he returns from his foreign trip, he would call the two sons of Kano to a round table.
