We bought fuel from Dangote at N898 per litre – NNPCL.
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has disclosed that it bought fuel from Dangote Refinery at N898 per litre, Daily Trust reports.
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. Wale Edun, Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, had announced that NNPCL would be the sole off-taker of refined petrol from Dangote Refinery.
