The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has announced a reduction in the price of petrol from N990 to N970 per litre for oil marketers.
Chief Branding and Communications Officer of the company, Anthony Chiejina, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.
According to him, the decision is the refinery’s way of appreciating Nigerians “for their unwavering support in making the refinery a dream come true.”
He said the move is a cut from the refinery’s N990 ex-depot price announced earlier this month.
“In addition, this is to thank the government for their support as this will complement the measures put in place to encourage domestic enterprise for our collective well-being,” the statement partly read.
“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,” Chiejina added.
