Obasanjo accuses Lafarge of obstructing Dangote cement expansion in Africa

Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo publicly accused French cement maker Lafarge of systematically obstructing Aliko Dangote's cement expansion across Africa, alleging ongoing interference. The claim is unverified and appears to reflect long-standing commercial rivalry between the two firms. It matters as it could escalate corporate tensions and influence perceptions of foreign competition in African markets.
