Dangote Industries Limited (DIL), owned by Aliko Dangote, has constructed the first-ever and longest concrete highway to connect southern and northern Nigeria.
Amid accolades from prominent engineers, the massive road which links Obajana and Kabba has been praised by many motorists who have said the strategic highway has aided the smooth conveyance of travellers between both regions, Premium Times reports.
Among those who are delighted about the development is Olatunbosun Kalejaiye, the project director, who noted that this is one of the DIL's corporate social responsibilities.
Also, the site engineer Samuel Obosi, assured Nigerians that the dual carriageway will not only be durable, but it will also be less prone to damages compared to what is obtainable with asphalt roads.
More importantly, Obosi pointed out that it will drastically reduce the rate of deaths caused by accidents in the country.
