Dangote Refinery Refutes Claims of NNPC Petrol Lift at ₦897/Litre

BY  Milcah   Tanimu

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has strongly denied recent media reports alleging that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has begun lifting petrol from its facility at ₦897 per litre. The refinery, which is set to commence operations soon, clarified that no such transaction has occurred and labeled the reports as misleading.

In a statement released on September 4, 2024, Anthony Chiejina, Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer of Dangote, emphasized that NNPC has not yet started lifting Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) from the refinery. Furthermore, no pricing has been set as the contracts between Dangote Refinery and NNPC are still under negotiation.

“The issue of fixing the price of petrol does not arise as we have not finalized our contract with NNPC,” Chiejina explained. He further stressed that fuel pricing is regulated by the government and not by Dangote Refinery.

Dangote Group reassured the public that once operational, the refinery will provide high-quality petroleum products across Nigeria. The company urged Nigerians to disregard the inaccurate headlines and rely on official updates for accurate information.
