Adeyemo stated the importance of reviving Ajaokuta steel company because when about 600,000 jobs are generated, the economy will be better.

“Mining is tasking and you need huge investment. However, when you know what you are going to get is profitable, you can take the risk. For example, Ajaokuta Steel Company can generate over one 100,000 directly and indirectly 500,000. If 600,000 jobs are generated, the economy will be better. As you expand, you employ more,” Adeyemo said.

Russian company, MetProm Group, identifies problem of Ajaokuta Steel

Recall that Nairametrics reported when a proposal to rejig the services of the long-abandoned Ajaokuta Steel was tabled before the Federal Government by MetProm Group, a Russian firm. This was made public after a meeting between a delegation of Russian officials and the Ministry of Mines and Steel Development.

It was made known that the Ajaokuta Steel was burdened by some ‘outstanding infrastructural issues’, and if the steel company is to resume operation, the Federal Government will have to address the issue. This is why the Russian firm’s proposal to rehabilitate and maintain the steel mill was welcome.
