Kekeocha, speaking on the show, argued that the price shared by the NNPC is “speculative” and is subject to change.“The products we are about to get from Dangote refinery cannot be costlier than the one imported because we have an advantage of supply logistics,” he said.
“If the one we are going to import from abroad is going to be cheaper, then there is no need celebrating Dangote refinery production. Absolutely, it is going to be cheaper than the imported one.”said the government has been intervening in the form of underrecovery, also known as subsidy.He said if the Dangote refinery’s petrol price is N950 per litre without government intervention, “it means underrecovery gradually comes to an end and maybe, Nigerians would get it cheaper”.
