After Apostle Johnson Suleman called out Dangote over the deadly accidents involving his trucks, one comment tried to absolve him, saying: “Is Dangote the driver of those trucks?” While Dangote isn’t behind the wheel, as the owner, he bears responsibility for the conduct of his company and employees. Leadership comes with accountability—ensuring proper training, enforcing safety measures, and compensating victims. Shifting blame ignores the role of employers in preventing negligence. Truck drivers may cause the accidents, but the system enabling recklessness is tied to management. True accountability means holding both drivers and the company to higher safety standards.
