Aliko Dangote, President of the Dangote Group has presented the first sample of Premium Motor Spirit, better known as petrol.

He made the presentation on Tuesday in a broadcast at his refinery situated in the Ibeju-Lekki Area of Lagos State.

"I would like to salute the people of Nigeria and the government of President Bola Tinubu for giving us the platform for growth, development, and prosperity. I also want to thank him personally for creating the idea of the Naira for crude. Doing that will give Naira stability.

"As we have this refinery working, it will show the true consumption of Nigeria; we can track every loaded truck and ship," Dangote said

He further disclosed that the refinery is meant to serve not just Nigerians, but also sub-Saharan Africa.
