Dangote Refinery Assures Nigerians Amid NUPENG Strike, Denies Fuel Shortage

Dangote Refinery has assured Nigerians of no fuel shortage amidst a NUPENG strike. The refinery's spokesman, Anthony Chiejina, addressed the media, stating the strike, which began on Monday, has not affected operations.

Despite criticism of neglect and mismanagement, the refinery aims to reduce petrol prices for consumers. The strike was launched by NUPENG, alleging unfair hiring practices for drivers.

Dangote's initiative to deploy a fleet of trucks powered by natural gas nationwide has been delayed due to logistical issues. The refinery's growing influence in the oil sector has raised concerns about potential monopolistic control.
