“We have now announced a new price of N899.50 per litre.
This reduction is designed to ease transport costs during the festive period,” he said.
“To alleviate transport costs during this holiday season, Dangote Refinery is offering a holiday discount on PMS.
From today, our petrol will be available at N899.50 per litre at our truck loading gantry or SPM.”
In addition to the price reduction, Dangote Refinery has introduced a new incentive to make fuel more accessible for consumers.
Chiejina explained that for every litre of petrol purchased on a cash basis, buyers will have the opportunity to acquire an additional litre on credit.
This offer is backed by a bank guarantee from Access Bank, First Bank, or Zenith Bank, providing customers with more flexible payment options.
