Dangote Petroleum Refinery Plans to Begin Nationwide Distribution of Petrol & Diesel on August 15
The move reportedly comes as tanker drivers and fuel marketers protest the $8 fee charged under the E-Call Up system, particularly along the Lekki-Epe Corridor. In response, Lagos State defended the policy, accusing unions of collecting up to $27 without delivering services.
↗To improve distribution, Dangote plans to deploy 4,000 new CNG-powered tankers, supported by a network of CNG stations, the Dangote Group said.
The refinery is offering fuel to marketers, dealers, manufacturers, and large-scale users, with free delivery and a credit scheme for bulk buyers (500,000+ liters).
According to the company, the initiative aims to:
ease distribution bottlenecks,
lower costs,
revive dormant filling stations,
support President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms by stimulating small businesses and curbing inflation.
