The 650,000 barrels per day Dangote Refinery is yet to begin production after the August commencement date, earlier announced by the President, Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote.
While delivering his speech at the official commissioning of the refinery by former President Muhammadu Buhari in May, he said, “Your excellencies, distinguished guests, our first product will be in the market before the end of July or beginning of August this year.”
However, no drop of refined petroleum product from the refinery has hit the market weeks after the promised production deadline
The management was unsure of when petrol refining would begin at the Ibeju-Lekki facility.
A source said, “For now, the management has not come out with any official date.”
