Dangote Refinery Denies Payment from IPMAN and Clarifies NNPCL’s Role As Sales
Dangote Petroleum Refinery has firmly denied receiving any payments from the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) for the purchase of refined petroleum products.
The clarification came in a statement from Anthony Chiejina, the Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer of Dangote Group, emphasizing that despite ongoing talks with IPMAN, no transactions have been finalized.
According to Chiejina, rumours suggesting that IPMAN members are facing difficulties in loading refined products from Dangote Refinery are misleading.
“We currently have no direct business dealings with IPMAN,” he explained, mentioning that any issues IPMAN might be facing are unrelated to Dangote Refinery’s operations.
The company underscored that it bears no responsibility for any payments IPMAN may have made to other parties, as it hasn’t received any funds from them.
The statement also clarified that the payment in question had been made through the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), not through Dangote Refinery itself.
Additionally, NNPCL has not granted any approval or authorization for Dangote to release its Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) to IPMAN, further confirming that there are no formal distribution arrangements between the refinery and the association.
Dangote Refinery touted as a game-changer for Nigeria’s energy landscape, also assured that it can meet the country’s full demand for petroleum products.
With the capability to load up to 2,900 trucks daily, the refinery stands ready to support Nigeria’s energy needs once direct agreements with distributors are in place.
