Nigeria’s Dangote Refinery has reduced the Premium
Motor Spirit (Petrol) price for marketers to N970 per litre.
The spokesperson of Dangote Group, Anthony Chiejina,
disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.
According to him, the 650,000 barrels per day refinery
slashed the petrol price by N20 from N990 per litre to N970.
This comes as the company vowed not to compromise on
the quality and standard of its product.
“Dangote Petroleum Refinery has affected a reduction
in the prevailing price of its Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) from N990/litre to
N970/litre for the marketers.
“As the year comes to an end, this is our way of
appreciating the good people of Nigeria for their unwavering support in making
the refinery a dream come true. In addition, this is to thank the government
for its support, as this will complement the measures put in place to encourage
domestic enterprise for our collective well-being.
“While the refinery would not compromise on the
quality of its petroleum products, We assure you of the best quality products
that are environmentally friendly and sustainable.
“We are determined to keep ramping up production to
meet and surpass our domestic fuel consumption; thus, dispelling any fear of a
shortfall in supply”.
This comes after the Refinery and Independent
Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria reached an agreement for direct fuel
purchase.
DAILY POST reports that fuel is sold across Nigerian
filling stations between N1060 and N1,115 per litre.
