Dangote Petroleum Refinery, owned by Africas richest man Aliko Dangote, has dismissed media reports linking a surge in petrol imports in November 2025 to a breakdown in supply arrangements with petroleum marketers. A statement from Anthony Chiejina, Dangote Groups Chief Branding and Communications Officer, called the reports inaccurate and misleading.xA0
Citing IPMAN National President Abubakar Shettima, the refinery said marketers have lifted products without complaints. We oppose continued importation because Dangote Refinery has the capacity to meet the countrys entire petrol demand, Shettima said. He added that direct delivery to filling stations has stabilized distribution and boosted confidence among marketers.
