Dangote Refinery has petitioned the Federal High Court in Abuja seeking the annulment of the import licenses granted to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL.
It also requested the annulment of licenses to Matrix Petroleum Services Limited and A. A. Rano.
The refinery wondered why the companies should be allowed to import petroleum products “despite the production of AGO and Jet-A1 that exceeds the current daily consumption of petroleum products in Nigeria by the Dangote Refinery.”
Dangote Refinery’s suit is marked case number FHC/ABJ/CS/1324/2024 and is pursuing N100 billion in damages from the NMDPRA.
