NIGERIA GOVERNMENT WILL RELEASE A NEW TEST RESULT ON DANGOTE REFINERY ON MONDAY
In a statement released on Sunday, the Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority’s spokesman, George Ene-Ita of NMDPRA, made this revelation in response to Dangote Refinery owner Aliko Dangote’s denial of its CEO, Farouk Ahmed,’s assertion that the refinery’s petroleum products were inferior to those imported.
According to Ene-Ita, the authority has approximately fifteen engineers and scientists working at the Dangote refinery, and it will soon submit a new study on the facility’s diesel composition.
He claims that the NMDPRA has completed its task and that it will not take Dangote Refinery to court.
Remember how Ahmed stated last week that the petroleum products from the Dangote Refinery were of lower quality and that the refinery does not now have a licence to operate?
“Dangote Refinery produces between 650 and 1,200 PPM, as do certain modular refineries as Watersmith Refinery and Aradel Refinery.
Their items are therefore of worse quality than those that are imported,” he said. Dangote, however, disagreed with Ahmed’s assertion that its petroleum products were subpar.
He demanded an impartial examination of the refinery’s output.
The imported one that they are supporting is the one that is in test, but occasionally, when you verify (on your own), different outcomes will appear.
While showing Speaker of the House of Representatives Tajudeen Abbass and other high-ranking politicians around the Dangote Refinery over the weekend, Dangote stated, “Because those people who have the lab have been told what to write.”
