JUST IN: Dangote Refinery Sells Petrol for N898 Per Litre

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has disclosed that it bought fuel at N898 per litre from Dangote Refinery.

The oil firm had moved about 300 trucks to the 650,000 capacity refinery in Lagos, on Saturday, and loading commenced on Sunday.

Speaking with Daily Trust over the price of premium motor spirit (PMS), otherwise known as petrol, Chief Spokesperson of the NNPCL, Olufemi Soneye, said, “We successfully loaded PMS at the Dangote Refinery today. The claim that we purchased it at N760 per liter is incorrect. For this initial loading, the price from the refinery was N898 per liter.”

He told our correspondent that as of the time of filing the report, over 70 trucks had been loaded.
