𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Cement is too expensive, I will speak with manufacturers on reducing prices —Umahi

David Umahi, minister of works, says he will dialogue with cement manufacturers over reducing the prices of their products.

He spoke on Thursday while featuring on Sunrise Daily, a Channels Television programme.

The minister said contractors have complained over the high cost of cement in the country and made claims that importing the product would be cheaper.

“I’m going to be running figures with them (cement manufacturers) to check the cost of cement if we import it and the cost they are giving us here,” he said.
