Dangote Petroleum Refinery has insisted that it has not received any payments from the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, to purchase refined petroleum products.
It made this known in a statement signed by Anthony Chiejina, the Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer of the company and sent to DAILY POST on Thursday night.
The statement noted that “although discussions are ongoing with IPMAN, it is misleading to suggest that they (IPMAN Members) are experiencing difficulties loading refined products from our Petroleum Refinery, as we currently have no direct business dealings with them.
“Consequently, we cannot be held responsible for any payments made to other entities.”
Dangote Refinery also clarified that “the payment in mention has been made through the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), and not us.
“In the same vein, NNPCL has neither approved, nor authorised us to release our Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) to IPMAN.”
It added that the refinery can meet Nigeria’s demand for all petroleum products and can load 2,900 trucks a day.
