The development comes as Dangote Refinery, last weekend, raised its gantry price by N65 per litre to N1,265 per litre.
Recall that Dangote Refinery had blamed the rising fuel imports on the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority’s issuance of import licences to marketers.
More recently, the mega refinery, which has a 57 per cent share of the country’s fuel supply market, threatened to halt petrol product sales to importers and marketers.
