Dangote Refinery Launches Hotline to Report MRS Stations Selling PMS Above ₦739

Published

on

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has introduced a dedicated hotline to enable Nigerians to report any MRS Oil Nigeria Plc filling stations selling Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) above the approved pump price of ₦739 per litre nationwide.
The initiative reinforces the refinery’s commitment to transparency, affordability, and consumer protection in Nigeria’s downstream petroleum sector. The hotline—0800 123 5264—is now active across the country, allowing consumers to promptly report pricing violations at over 2,000 MRS filling stations.

This development follows Dangote Refinery’s recent commencement of nationwide PMS sales at ₦739 per litre, a strategic move aimed at stabilising fuel prices and easing the financial burden on Nigerians, particularly during the festive season.

In a statement, the refinery reaffirmed its mission to provide affordable, high-quality fuel while safeguarding national economic interests. “We urge Nigerians to refrain from purchasing PMS at inflated prices when locally refined fuel is available at ₦739 per litre. Any MRS station selling above this price should be reported via our hotline. Together, we can ensure that the benefits of this price reduction reach all consumers,” the statement said.
Dangote Refinery also assured Nigerians of a steady fuel supply, backed by a guaranteed daily production capacity of 50 million litres. It warned against any attempts to create artificial scarcity or manipulate supply in response to the price reduction.

The refinery called on regulatory authorities to remain vigilant and take decisive action against unpatriotic practices capable of undermining the gains of local refining, especially during the festive period.

By refining petroleum products locally at scale, Dangote Refinery noted that it is reducing Nigeria’s dependence on fuel imports, conserving foreign exchange, stabilising the Naira, and strengthening the nation’s energy security marking a major milestone in the journey toward economic recovery and sustainable energy solutions.

Consumers were further advised to resist purchasing fuel at inflated prices when affordable, high-quality alternatives are readily available.
