The Dangote refinery has again slashed its petrol prices to make them cheaper, cutting its ex-depot rate to N835 per litre.
The new price is a reduction of N30 from N865 per litre implemented six days ago, marking a 3.5 per cent decrease and N45 from N880 per litre sold by the facility last Wednesday.
The N835 per litre is its loading cost for Premium Motor Spirit, also known as petrol.
This price slash also marks Dangote’s third downward adjustment in under six weeks.
The refinery informed its customers of the reduction in a notice sent out on Wednesday morning.
Checks into petroleumprice.ng confirmed the development.
It said the new price was inclusive of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority charges.
On Wednesday, a report by THE PUNCH hinted at a possible price slash after the landing cost of imported petrol dropped to N853 per litre on Tuesday.
This comes as marketers secured regulatory approval to import 117,000 metric tonnes—equivalent to 156.897 million litres—of petrol within eight days, from April 8 to 16, 2025, to boost fuel supply nationwide.
These figures were disclosed in separate documents from the Nigerian Port Authority and the Major Energies Marketers Association of Nigeria.
