An Overview of Dangote Refinery in Lagos – Video and Photos

Aliko Dangote, president of Dangote Group, has assured Nigerians that when his refinery is ready, the country would no longer need to import petroleum products. The refinery would lower the prices of petroleum products in Nigeria and save some costs on importation when completed.

The 650,000-barrels-per-day refinery will come on stream by September 2019. Work has been ongoing on the proposed site at Ibeju Lekki area which is very close to the Eko Atlantic site.
