In Nigeria, the price of a bag of cement has become a topic of concern, with the cost surpassing ₦6,000. This development has led to discontent among Nigerians, who are calling for government intervention to address the issue.

The rising cost of cement has been attributed to various factors, including the high cost of production, scarcity of raw materials, and the impact of inflation. The price hike has affected construction projects, making building materials less affordable for many Nigerians.

The Nigerian government has been urged to take action to ensure that the price of cement remains within reach for the average citizen. The construction industry, a significant contributor to the Nigerian economy, relies heavily on affordable cement prices to thrive.
