The transaction gives effect to part of the resolutions that were passed by the shareholders of Lafarge Africa Plc at the company’s annual general meeting held in Lagos recently.

The deal also marks another critical step in the Lafarge Africa consolidation transaction. Further announcements are expected to be made when milestones in respect of other key elements of the shareholder resolutions are reached.
