This is according to OPEC’s report on Wednesday.

The report stated that the emergence of the Dangote refinery has reduced the importation of petroleum products from Europe to Nigeria.

“The ongoing operational ramp-up efforts at Nigeria’s new Dangote refinery and its gasoline (petrol) exports to the international market will likely weigh further on the European gasoline market.

“Continued gasoline production in Nigeria, a country that has relied heavily on imports to meet its domestic fuel needs in the past, will most likely continue to free up gasoline volumes in international markets, which will call for new destinations and flow adjustments for the extra volumes going forward.”

In the fourth quarter of 2024, OPEC said, “Imports also declined, particularly oil product imports, improving the outlook for the external sector.”

DAILY POST reports that the 650,000 barrels per day Dangote Refinery began the rollout of PMS on September 15, heralding a new dawn for Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

The $20 billion Lekki, Lagos-based refinery has continued to ramp up production to meet both domestic and international demands for petrol.

Recall that in November, Dangote reduced its ex-depot price of petrol to N899.50 per litre. The company then partnered with MRS filling stations to sell petrol at N935 per litre.

Dangote’s price slash prompted the Nigerian National Petroleum Company, NNPC, to also reduce its PMS price to N965 per litre.

DAILY POST reports that Nigerians now buy petrol between N935 and N1,100 per litre nationwide.

This is why they don't want a working Nigeria or even Africa at large, imagine a continent to blessed with natural resources depending on I portion and not only that, begging for loans from countries not as naturally blessed.

You are right, sometimes Africans unwittingly support these diabolical schemes.
I believe same thing is playing out with Ajaokuta. I hope Tinubu can finally fix that too.
