Dangote Cement has dominated the cement industry for many years, but competition from other companies is increasing.
Nigeria is still developing infrastructure, and this should increase demand for cement. But competition may affect profit margins.

Between Dangote Cement and BUA Cement, which company do you think has more growth potential?
 
you like their stocks better than Bua Cement? what prices are they selling at per share right now?

As of now, Dangote Cement is around ₦810 per share, while BUA Cement is around ₦326 per share on the Nigerian Exchange.

But price alone should not be the only reason to choose a stock. Investors usually look at:
Dividend history
Company profit growth
Expansion plans
Market share
Future construction/real estate outlook

Dangote Cement is the market leader and has strong distribution and brand presence, so it’s very stable. BUA Cement is growing fast, expanding capacity, and taking advantage of new infrastructure projects. If you’re looking for steady returns, Dangote is solid. If you want higher growth potential (with more risk), BUA could surprise in the next few years.

You said it perfectly, I don't consider price in buying any shares anymore, there so many metrics to put in place before deciding to buy any shares
