Dangote Petroleum Refinery has commenced nationwide sales of premium motor spirit at a pump price of seven hundred and thirty-nine naira per litre across all MRS Oil Nigeria PLC filling stations, marking a significant milestone in the refinery’s mission to deliver affordable fuel to Nigerians and stabilise the downstream petroleum market.
In a statement from the firm on sunday, it stated that with over two thousand MRS stations nationwide, the new pricing is expected to be implemented across all outlets, ensuring that the benefits of the reduction reach consumers throughout the country. The refinery commended marketers who have embraced the new pricing regime and urged others to follow suit in support of national economic recovery. Historically, the festive season in Nigeria has been associated with fuel scarcity and sharp price hikes. However, Dangote Refinery has intervened decisively—reducing pump prices at a time when Nigerians typically brace for hardship. Backed by a guaranteed daily supply of 50 million litres, this initiative fundamentally alters supply dynamics during the holiday period.
