Why Petrol From My Refinery Looks Clearer — Dangote

The President of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has explained why the first sample of Premium Motor Spirit, commonly known as petrol, from his refinery appeared clearer than the petrol currently in circulation.

Speaking during a broadcast at his refinery located in the Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State, Dangote highlighted that the clearer petrol is more environmentally friendly and could help reduce health issues associated with polluted petroleum products.

He noted that this new petrol would also protect engines from damage caused by the unclear petrol that is typically found in the market.

He said, “This is the sample of the petrol. You see it as a different colour but that is the real deal. You are now going to have a good and real product.”

Also speaking of the colour of the diesel, he said, “I am sure Nigerians have not seen this colour of diesel before,” Dangote stated. “This is called Euro-5 diesel. It contains less than 10 parts per million (PPM) of sulfur. This will help vehicles, engines, and generators last longer.”

He further emphasised, “The health of the people and the environment will not be compromised. This is the real deal.”
