The Dangote Petroleum Refinery hhas currently reduced its petrol price from N828 to N699 per litre, which is a decrease of N129 per litre, a reduction of 15.58 percent.
Senior officials have indicated that the refinery introduced this price cut to assist in reducing transportation expenses ahead of the Christmas period, when millions of Nigerians travel across states to reunite with family.

The company explained that this pricing adjustment demonstrates their, “commitment to make the season memorable for citizens and reduce cost pressures on road transport operators.”
According to industry insiders, the refinery’s successive price changes—culminating in today’s significant cut—signal the definitive collapse of the former marketers’ consortium model, which once managed coordinated bulk purchasing. As the refinery expands its nationwide distribution channels, individual marketers can now deal directly, allowing for quicker pricing responses and greater market reach.
The refinery has framed this latest cut as both an economic measure and a social initiative. With interstate travel expected to rise sharply before Christmas and New Year celebrations, the reduced gantry price should lead to lower retail fuel prices in various states, particularly in the North and South-East regions, where logistics expenses often surge during holidays.

According to the officials,there might be further adjustments remain as the refinery increases output in preparation for its upcoming expansion phase.
