Dangote: NNPC Yet To Lift Our Petrol

By Daniel Dafe

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has debunked a report on Business Day Newspaper with headline “NNPC lifts Dangote Petrol, Sells at N897 Per Litre” published on Wednesday, 4 September 2024.

The company said this in a statement on Thursday signed by Anthony Chiejina,

Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer.

The statement added: “We would like to state that NNPC has not commenced lifting of refined Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) commonly known as petrol, from our Dangote Petroleum Refinery

“Therefore, the issue of fixing the price of petrol lifted from our refinery does not arise, as we are yet to finalise our contact with NNPC.

“The PMS market is strictly regulated which is known to all oil marketers and stakeholders in the sector hence we cannot determine, fix, or influence the product price, which falls under the purview of relevant government authorities.”

“We are guaranteeing Nigerians of exceptionally high quality petroleum products that will be readily available all over the country,” the statement concluded.”
