Nigeria: Again, Dangote Petroleum Refinery Slashes Petrol Price to N820/Ltr
LAGOS, NIGERIA, JUL 8 – Dangote Refinery's second petrol price cut in two weeks aims to ease fuel costs amid global crude price drops, benefiting over 42 million MSMEs, the company said.
- Dangote Petroleum Refinery announced a further cut in the ex-depot price of petrol to N820 per litre, effective July 8, 2025, in Lagos, Nigeria.
- This second price reduction within two weeks follows a previous cut from N880 to N840 per litre on July 1, influenced by a recent drop in global crude oil prices.
- Africa’s largest refinery, with a capacity of 650,000 barrels per day, intends to provide petrol and diesel at no cost to specific marketers and major consumers starting from August 15, 2025.
- Anthony Chiejina stated this move reflects Dangote’s commitment to easing consumer burden and stabilizing fuel prices amid inflation and transportation costs.
- The price cut is expected to prompt downstream operators to reduce pump prices, potentially lowering retail costs below N885 per litre and stabilizing the Nigerian fuel market.
