On Tuesday, Aliko Dangote presented the first petrol sample from his refinery in a live broadcast from the Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State. During the presentation, Dangote expressed his gratitude to the people of Nigeria and the government of President Bola Tinubu for creating an enabling environment for growth, development, and prosperity. He specifically commended President Tinubu for introducing the idea of using the Naira for crude oil transactions, which he believes will stabilize the currency.
Dangote's refinery, which has a capacity of 650,000 barrels per day, is a significant investment in Nigeria's oil industry and is expected to meet the country's fuel needs and even export surplus products.
Aliko Dangote, President of Dangote Group, has revealed the secret behind the unusually clear petrol from his refinery. During a broadcast at the Ibeju-Lekki refinery in Lagos, Dangote explained that the clearer petrol is not only more environmentally friendly but also healthier for consumers. He highlighted that this new petrol will reduce health issues associated with polluted petroleum products and protect engines from damage.
Showcasing the petrol sample, Dangote proudly said, "This is the real deal! You're now going to have a good and real product."
He also unveiled the Euro-5 diesel, boasting less than 10 parts per million (PPM) of sulfur, which will extend the lifespan of vehicles, engines, and generators. Dangote emphasized, "The health of the people and the environment will not be compromised. This is the real deal!"
