PETROAN and Dangote Refinery Team Up to Improve Gas and Fuel Distribution
The Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) has emphasized the importance of issuing gas distribution licenses to petroleum marketers as a key step in reshaping Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.
In a statement released on Tuesday, PETROAN’s spokesperson, Joseph Obele, mentioned the significance of the move. The National Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) had granted these licenses to oil marketers on the same day.
PETROAN further explained that these licenses were crucial to ensuring the success of Nigeria’s gas expansion plans, which are part of the broader vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
The statement outlined that licensees were expected to use their new authorization to contribute to the nationwide distribution of gas, with the goal of covering all 774 local government areas across the country.
In another important development, PETROAN also announced a strategic partnership with Dangote Refinery and MRS, aimed at enhancing the distribution of petroleum products across the nation.
This collaboration is set to provide Nigerians with more value for their money when purchasing Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), while also addressing price disparities by factoring in transportation costs.
Nigerian fintech company OPay has introduced new security features to improve the safety of its application.
The company unveiled the Emergency Lock and Safety PIN features to give customers better control over their funds and provide added protection against fraud and unauthorized transactions.
The Emergency Lock feature allows customers to instantly freeze their OPay account with a single tap whenever they sense a threat or believe their account may be at risk.
The newly launched Safety PIN introduces an additional layer of security, helping customers protect themselves in situations where they may be forced to make a transfer or payment against their will.
The Federal Government of Nigeria has spoken on the agriculture sector of the country and shared that, in its current state, it needs more capital as it cannot stand alone without it.
They stated that even more capital will be needed in order to transform the agricultural sector and improve food production in Nigeria.
“Relying solely on public capital will not suffice to finance the transformation of Nigeria’s agricultural sector. Similarly, private capital will not be mobilised at the necessary scale unless the associated risks are comprehensively understood, appropriately allocated, and effectively managed.”
It has been noted that there is now an increase in fuel all around Nigeria, from … to 1000 plus in fuel stations.
It was also noted that Dangote Petroleum Refinery increased the price to 1,175 per litre and diesel has been increased to 1,620 per litre.
This new spike in fuel increase has caused Nigerians to lament widely, wondering why this change happened all of a sudden.
