Dangote expresses gratitude to the Nigerian people for their unwavering support towards the refinery

Aliko Dangote, the Chief Executive Officer of Dangote Industries Limited, has expressed his heartfelt appreciation to President Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), President-elect Bola Tinubu, and the Nigerian people as a whole for their invaluable support in realizing the establishment of the Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals Plant. Dangote conveyed his gratitude through a message shared on the group's official Twitter handle on Monday.

The newly established refinery has the capacity to refine 650,000 barrels of crude oil per day, effectively converting it into various essential petroleum products like diesel, gasoline, jet fuel, and kerosene.

 This advanced facility is specifically designed to produce high-quality Euro-V gasoline and diesel, in addition to jet fuel and polypropylene.

 The company emphasizes that the refinery is equipped to process a wide range of crude oils, including African crudes, select Middle Eastern crudes, and US Light Tight Oil.

 "I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude, on behalf of the Dangote Group and myself, to the President, the Federal Government of Nigeria, and the President-Elect for their invaluable support. Their vision, particularly in establishing the Lekki Free Trade Zone, has been instrumental in driving our progress.

 "I would also like to extend a special thanks to Governor Fashola, Governor Ambode, and Governor Sanwo-Olu for their unwavering assistance. Their support has been pivotal in facilitating our endeavors.

 Dangote expressed his heartfelt appreciation to the Nigerian people for their overwhelming support, which has been immense and too numerous to individually acknowledge.
