Ogun State House of Assembly has summoned the management teams of Dangote Cement, the State Ministry of Special Duties and the Managing Director of the Ogun-Osun River Basin Development Authority to appear before it this Tuesday, 29th September , 2026 for an interface on environmental concerns within communities in the State.
The invitation followed separate reports by a member representing Yewa North I State Constituency, Hon. Adegoke Adeyanju and his Odogbolu counterpart, Hon. Lukman Adeleye, during a plenary at the Assembly Complex, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
Hon. Adeyanju, raised concerns over environmental degradation, traffic congestion and dangers caused by the indiscriminate parking of Dangote trucks in and around Ibese.
He added that some of the trucks even belonged to the Dangote Refinery which was not sited in the State and that the company’s management earlier made commitment to construct a trailer park to decongest the traffic along the roads leading to the company, but, yet to materialise.
On his part, Hon. Adeleye, raised a petition on the damage and loss of life of an eight-year-old boy recently caused by flooding at Atiba, an emerging community in his constituency; while calling for preventive measures to address the issues including the construction of standard drainage to ease free flow of water during rainfall.
