The Dangote Petroleum Refinery says it has reduced the ex-depot prices of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) and Automotive Gas Oil (diesel) as part of efforts to make petroleum products more affordable.

Under the new pricing structure, the refinery reduced the price of petrol from N1,215 per litre to N1,165, representing a N50 reduction, while diesel was cut from N1,650 per litre to N1,570, amounting to an N80 reduction.

In a statement signed by the Dangote Group on Wednesday, the refinery said the price review was aimed at enhancing energy affordability, improving access to refined petroleum products and supporting economic activities across Nigeria.

According to the refinery, the move reflects its commitment to providing “affordable, high-quality petroleum products to the Nigerian market.”
