Lagos, April 28, 2025 – The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has denied media report that it had shut down its petrol processing unit for maintenance.
Bloomberg, an international news organization, had reported last weekend that a section of the Dangote Refinery was undergoing repairs which had led to the shutting down of its petrol processing units until further notice.
A senior spokesman for the company has, however, denied the report, saying that “loading of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) is ongoing as we speak.”
“It is not true. Don’t believe everything you see online. People can go to the refinery to check.
“The report is a lie. We are loading fuel every day. Millions of litres are being loaded on a daily basis.
“Go to the refinery there and see whether they are loading or not, and see how many trucks are leaving. We load millions of litres every day,” he said.
