Contrary to the news spreading on social media that Dangote Refinery has set the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), popularly known as petrol, at N600 per liter, the Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer, Anthony Chiejina, has dismissed the claims.
According to Chiejina, in a statement, “The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) is not yet a business partner of the refinery, and there has never been any discussion regarding the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) with them.
“Our attention has been drawn to headlines announcing “Marketers Project N600/litre for Dangote Petrol” published in Punch Newspapers on Tuesday, August 13, 2024.
“We would like to clarify that the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) is not our business partner yet. We have never discussed the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) with them, and they have no mandate or authority to speak for us, either for good or with the hidden transcript.
“We urge the public to desist from such speculative announcements. We have our official channels through which we make our views known to our stakeholders,” Chiejina added.
