Dangote Refinery Clarifies 20% Stake Sale with NNPCLThe
Dangote Petroleum Refinery clarified that the original agreement with
NNPCL was for a
20% stake worth
$2.76 billion, with
$1 billion paid upfront and the balance to be recovered over
five years through crude oil deductions and dividends.
Anthony Chiejina, Dangote Group’s Chief Branding Officer, dismissed claims that the
$1 billion loan was due to liquidity issues, highlighting the generous, credit-based payment terms.
Due to NNPCL's failure to supply the agreed
300,000 barrels per day, their stake was reduced to
7.24% after missing a
June 30, 2024 deadline. Chiejina emphasized that NNPCL remains a valued partner and called for accurate reporting of the situation.
