Reduction of diesel cost by Dangote refinery will impact prices of goods -FG
The federal government says the reduction in the cost of
automotive gas oil (AGO), also known as diesel, by Dangote refinery will impact
prices of goods in the country.
On April 16, the refinery announced a price reduction for
diesel, from N1,200 to N1,000 per litre.
The development comes days after Dangote refinery fixed the
minimum volume of diesel that can be purchased by oil marketers at one million
litres.
In a statement by Ajuri Ngelale, special adviser to the
president on media on Wednesday, President Bola Tinubu commended the refinery
over the reduction.
