This development comes a week after the company announced a reduction in the price of diesel from N1,200 to N1,000 per litre
The Dangote refinery on Tuesday announced a further reduction in the price of diesel and aviation fuel to N940 and N980 per litre respectively.
"I can confirm to you that Dangote Petroleum Refinery has entered a strategic partnership with MRS Oil and Gas stations, to ensure that consumers get to buy fuel at affordable prices, in all their stations be it Lagos or Maiduguri. You can buy as low as 1 litre of diesel at N1,050 and aviation fuel at N980 at all major airports where MRS operates," Mr Chiejina said."The essence of this is to ensure that retail buyers do not buy at exorbitant prices.
"The trickle-down effect of this singular intervention promises to change the dynamics in the energy cost equation of the country, in the midst of inadequate and rising cost of electricity. The reduction will have far-reaching effects in critical sectors like industrial operations, transportation, logistics, and agriculture, contributing to easing the high inflation rate in the country; a lot of companies will be back in operation," Mr Kadiri said.
