Dangote Group has disclaimed ownership of a truck involved in a road accident in Akungba-Akoko, South-West Local Government Area of Ondo State.
Following the tragic accident that occurred on October 22nd, 2025 involving the lost of lives of eight according to Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), report began circulating on social media linking the truck involved in the incident to the Dangote Group.
However, the company has released an official press statement on October 23rd, 2025, refuting these claims.
According to the statement, the truck with Plate Number JJJ 365 XB is owned and operated by an independent logistics company without affiliation to the Dangote Group.
The management claims that the vehicle was not transporting any Dangote products but was carrying crushed stones in reused sacks bearing various brand names. They further emphasized that all genuine Dangote trucks are easily identifiable by their distinct company markings and fleet numbers.
While expressing condolences to victims of the accident, the Group urged the public to verify information before sharing, saying such misinformation could damage the reputation of organizations that adhere to the law.
