Aliko Dangote has revealed that petrol from his new 650,000-barrel-per-day refinery will be available at filling stations within the next 48 hours.

At a press briefing on Tuesday, Dangote stated that the timing depends on finalizing arrangements with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL). He emphasized that once these arrangements are complete, the Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) could be in the market very soon.

Regarding pricing, Dangote noted that it will be set in accordance with the plans approved by the Federal Executive Council under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He indicated that the launch could happen as soon as today or tomorrow, once all necessary steps with NNPC are finalized.

Dangote assured that the petrol from his refinery will meet high standards, promising that it will be of exceptional quality, comparable to international standards. He emphasized that the petrol would enhance engine performance and durability, addressing common issues faced with lower-quality fuels.
