Dangote making his points
The $20 billion Dangote Refinery has officially begun petrol production from its 650,000 barrels per day facility with assurance of serving Nigerians petrol of top quality.
“This refinery will fuel growth, development, and prosperity by supplying energy to our people,” said Aliko Dangote, President of the Dangote Group, told the press on Tuesday.
“I salute the people of Nigeria and President Bola Tinubu’s government for creating the conditions that allowed us to achieve this monumental task. This refinery will drive growth, development, and prosperity by providing energy to our people,” Dangote stated.
He thanked Tinubu for the “naira for crude, naira for product” initiative, which he believes will stabilise the naira by reducing the demand for dollars by 40%.
“As we have this refinery working, it will show the true consumption of Nigeria; we can track every loaded truck and ship,” he said.
He added that the refinery is designed to meet the demands of not only Nigerians but also those in sub-Saharan Africa.
On quality of product, he assured Nigerians that they “are now going to have good petrol while the engines of your vehicles will last longer. You will not be having an engine issue, which a lot of us were having. It won’t happen at all.
“The quality here will match that of anywhere in the world; US, America, we will make sure that nobody will beat us in terms of quality,” he said.
