Some Nigerians have taken to social media to react to the recently disclosed petrol prices from Dangote Refinery.
Akelicious reports that Dangote Refinery revealed its petrol prices following claims by the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) and the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) that they import petrol at cheaper rates.
In its reaction on Sunday, the refinery disclosed that its petroleum products are sold at N990 per litre for truck distribution and N960 per litre for ship distribution.
In a statement released on Sunday night and signed by Anthony Chiejina, Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer, the refinery stated that it adheres to the pricing benchmark set by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), adding that it offers a lower price for sales into ships.
The statement has, however, continued to elicit various reactions from social media users. While some question why it took so long for the refinery to disclose the prices of its products, others believe the amount is high, given that the refinery is located in Nigeria.
