NMDPRA Gives Reason Nigeria Can’t Rely On Dangote Refinery Products Alone –
The Chief Executive of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA), Farouk Ahmed has cautioned Nigerians against over-dependence on products from the Dangote refinery.
He highlighted concerns over the consistency and standardisation of the refinery’s output, stating that the quality of its products was inferior compared to the imported quality products.
He addressed concerns about the nationwide supply of petroleum products and denied claims by some media outlets that they were trying to scuttle the Dangote Refinery.
Ahmed said Dangote Refinery was still in the pre-commissioning stage and had not been licensed yet. “We haven’t been licensed yet,” he added.
According to.him, “I think we have about 45% completion. We cannot rely heavily on one refinery to feed the nation because Dangote is requesting that we suspend or stop imports, especially of AGO and DPK, and direct all marketers to his refinery.
,,,,,”That is not good for the nation in terms of energy security, and it is not good for the market because of the monopoly.
