Recently, the House of Representatives stepped in with an attempt to stabilize the market by issuing a 14-day ultimatum to cement producers.
This directive was given after these manufacturers failed to attend a scheduled investigative hearing organized by the Joint Committee on Solid Minerals, Commerce, Industry, and Special Duties.
This committee was specifically established to address and scrutinize the sudden spike in cement prices that has been observed in the country.
In addition to summoning representatives from the cement companies, the Minister of Solid Minerals Development, Dele Alake, has also been called to appear before the committee to explain his absence at the initial hearing and to contribute to discussions aimed at resolving the price instability.
The persistently high cost of cement has significantly deterred many from initiating building projects, impacting both individual plans and larger real estate developments.
With the ultimatum in place, there is a growing expectation among Nigerians that the government’s intervention will lead to favorable outcomes that make cement more affordable, thereby revitalizing the construction sector and aiding those affected by the price hikes.
