Alhaji Aliko Dangote, the Chairman of the Dangote Group, has announced that the Dangote Refinery is set to roll out its first batch of Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise known as petrol, for local consumption.
Dangote made the announcement on Tuesday while briefing the media at the Dangote Refinery in the Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State.
He thanked President Bola Tinubu for making the dream of local petrol refining possible.
He also thanked Nigerians for their moral support and the media for their unbiased reportage of the Dangote Refinery’s progress from inception to the present time.
He explained that local refining of the product would save the country from the recurring crisis of sourcing foreign exchange for importation.
The chairman later took the media team on a facility tour of the $20 billion refinery, which has a capacity of 650,000 barrels per day.
