Marketers, Dangote Finally Reach Agreement on Fuel Distribution amid Job Loss Concerns
Marketers and Dangote have reached an agreement on fuel distribution, addressing concerns about potential job losses. Dangote Petroleum Refinery will start direct fuel distribution on August 15, bypassing the current supply chain.
The Natural Oil and Gas Suppliers Association (NOGASA) had warned that this could lead to product scarcity and disrupt the existing network. However, after meetings with tanker drivers and petroleum suppliers, Dangote has assured that fuel will be sold to bulk buyers who will then distribute it to end users.
This has eased concerns about job losses among tanker drivers. The National Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO) and NOGASA have agreed to cooperate with Dangote's distribution plan.
Consultations are ongoing with stakeholders to address any potential impacts of the new scheme.
