The Dangote refinery will start the free fuel distribution scheme on Monday.
Anthony Chiejina, the Dangote Group spokesman told PUNCH in a statement that the scheme would start with the South West, the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Kwara, Delta, Rivers and Edo States.
“We are starting the free fuel distribution scheme on Monday. We will start with Lagos and the South West, Abuja, Kwara, Delta, Rivers and Edo States. There will be a drop in price effective on Monday when the free distribution starts,” it was said.
He added that the refinery has also dropped petrol retail prices to N841 per litre in Lagos and the South West and N851 per litre in Abuja, Edo, Kwara, Rivers and Delta States.
More states are expected to benefit from the scheme as more trucks arrive in Nigeria.
