The company said in line with the provisions of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA), petrol prices are not set by the government, but negotiated directly between parties.
“The NNPC Ltd can confirm that it is paying Dangote Refinery in USD for September 2024 PMS offtake, as Naira transactions will only commence on October 1st, 2024.
