A 50 kilograms bag of cement in the Federal Capital Territory has surged to between N10,000 and N15,000.

A market survey conducted on Friday by our correspondent in Gwarimpa, Area 10, Kubwa, Lugbe and Dawaki showed that a 50kg bag of Dangote cement is N10,000 and other competitors’ cement stood at N15,000.

A retailer in Gwarimpa, Yinka Adebayo, said that the price of Dangote cement is N10,000 while that of another competitor is N15,000. He said he sold a bag of cement for N6,000 in January 2023.

“We sell Dangote cement at N10,000 per bag, and another is N15,000. Unfortunately, it will surprise you that I sold the same bag of cement, N5,500 to N6000, last month,” he said.

Similarly, Rukiyat Abdullahi, a retailer in Kubwa, said Dangote cement is sold for N10,200 while another brand goes for N16,000. “Dangote is now N10,200 while its competitors go for N16,000 per bag”, she told our reporter on Friday.
