This information was revealed by the National President of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Alhaji Abubakar Maigandi, during an interview with Obasanjonews.com.
Maigandi emphasized that one million litres is the minimum volume that a marketer can purchase, and he even mentioned that someone had informed him about their intention to start selling the product.
It is expected that the refinery will officially commence the sale of the product on Tuesday. However, Anthony Chiejina, the Chief Communications Officer of the Dangote Group, has yet to respond to a text message sent by The Nation at the time of this report. More details will be provided soon.
