Dangote Refinery is set to begin distributing refined petrol to marketers across Nigeria starting this Sunday, as revealed by BusinessDay. Despite the introduction of this new supply, the pump price of petrol will remain unchanged.
The refinery is initially expected to distribute 25 million litres of petrol daily through the NNPC Trading Limited. Marketers have been directed to start sending their trucks to the refinery today to facilitate the lifting process, which is expected to improve fuel supply across the country and ease challenges faced by consumers.
Located in the Lekki Free Trade Zone, Lagos, the Dangote Refinery represents a major leap in Nigeria’s industrialization. Its operation is poised to reduce the nation’s dependence on imported petroleum products and significantly boost the economy.
