The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has announced it purchased petroleum from Dangote Refinery at a rate of N898 per litre.
 
NNPCL said it dispatched about 300 trucks to the 650,000-barrels-per-day capacity refinery in Lagos on Saturday, September 14, with loading operations commencing today, Sunday.

Majority of Nigerians have been hopeful that the entrance of Dangote refineries into the equation would have resulted in lower cost of petrol seeing that it is a local refinery.

 
However, spokesperson for the NNPCL, Olufemi Soneye, on Sunday revealed the company bought the fuel at N898 per litre contrary to reports claiming N760.

“We successfully loaded PMS at the Dangote Refinery today. The claim that we purchased it at N760 per litre is incorrect. For this initial loading, the price from the refinery was N898 per litre,” he said.

Zacch Adedeji, the Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service and member of the Presidential Committee on the Sale of Crude Oil and Refined Products had earlier announced that the supply of petrol from Dangote Refinery, Lagos, would begin on September 15, following an agreement reached on pricing and supply terms.
 
According to Adedeji, the NNPCL would serve as the sole off-taker of petrol from the Dangote Refinery, with other marketers sourcing the product from the national oil company.
