Dangote Refinery Launches First Petrol Sample in Major Industry Milestone
Aliko Dangote, the head of Dangote Group, recently unveiled the first batch of Premium Motor Spirit, commonly known as petrol. He did this on Tuesday during a broadcast from his refinery in the Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State.
Dangote expressed his appreciation to the people of Nigeria and President Bola Tinubu’s government for supporting growth and development.
He specifically thanked Tinubu for the concept of using the Naira for crude oil transactions, which he believes will stabilize the currency.
Dangote added that the refinery will not only meet Nigeria’s needs but will also supply petrol to other countries in sub-Saharan Africa.
With this refinery, they will be able to monitor every truck and ship carrying the fuel, reflecting Nigeria’s actual consumption.
