Dangote Refinery Challenges DAPPMAN Over Trillion Naira Subsidy Demand

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has challenged Depot Petroleum Products Marketers Association (DAPPMAN) over subsidy demands, alleging an extra cost of N75 per liter for coastal logistics. The refinery claims this would amount to an additional trillion annually.

Dangote refuted the marketer's claims and urged legal action if proven wrong. The dispute centers on the mode of product delivery, with DAPPMAN preferring coastal logistics over direct refinery lifting.

With a projected daily consumption of 40 million liters of PMS and 15 million liters of AGO, the refinery estimates a significant financial impact. The ongoing disagreement highlights the complexities of the petroleum industry in Nigeria.
