Jetour Takes Award-Winning Dashing, Other SUVs to Abuja

Motorists in Abuja are set for a close encounter with Jetour’s award-winning Dashing and other models as Jetour Nigeria moves to deepen its foothold in the nation’s capital with the Jetour Experience Abuja, beginning September 22.

The three-day motoring event, which runs until September 24, is expected to draw prospective buyers and automobile enthusiasts to a hands-on experience featuring test drives, product demonstrations and direct engagement with Jetour’s seven authorised dealers and product specialists.

The participating dealer network comprises Elizade Nigeria Limited, Kojo Motors, Mandilas Autos, Germaine Auto Centre, R.T. Briscoe, Tab Autos and New Era Auto Vehicle Services Limited.

The Abuja Experience follows the success of the Lagos edition, which attracted thousands of visitors for test drives and direct engagement with product specialists. According to the organisers, strong demand and inquiries from motorists in Abuja and neighbouring states prompted the expansion of the event to the Federal Capital Territory.

The Dashing has gained attention in Nigeria’s competitive compact SUV segment for its combination of modern styling, technology, performance and competitive pricing.

The SUV is available with 1.5-litre and 1.6-litre turbocharged engines, producing up to 145kW of power and 290Nm of torque, paired with six- or seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions.

Its features include a 15.6-inch central touchscreen infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, wireless charging and smartphone integration.

For safety, the vehicle comes with a 360-degree surround-view camera, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind-spot detection and multiple airbags.

Beyond vehicle sales, the authorised dealers provide warranty, genuine spare parts and after-sales support to Jetour customers across their respective locations.

The Abuja Experience is expected to strengthen customer engagement and give motorists in the FCT a closer look at Jetour’s growing range of vehicles, while further expanding the brand’s footprint in the northern market.

Dangote: ₦525 Refinery Shares Could Rise to ₦10,000

Investors who buy into the Dangote Petroleum Refinery may see the value of their holdings multiply significantly in the years ahead, according to Aliko Dangote.

The businessman said the refinery’s shares, which will be offered at ₦525 each, could eventually climb as high as ₦10,000.

The projection comes ahead of the company’s much-anticipated initial public offering, which is scheduled to open on September 14 and close on October 13.

Dangote used a hypothetical ₦5m investment to illustrate his expectation, saying such an investment could be worth more than ₦50m if the share price eventually reaches his projected target.

The IPO will put 4.1 billion ordinary shares on offer, with investors able to apply for as few as 10 shares, equivalent to ₦5,250.

A major feature of the offer, according to Dangote, is that smaller investors will be given preference when shares are allocated.

He said people investing modest amounts such as ₦50,000 or ₦100,000 would be prioritised ahead of institutional investors seeking much larger allocations.

He also highlighted dividends as another potential attraction, saying shareholders may have the option of receiving their returns in either naira or US dollars.

Dangote argued that receiving dividends in dollars could be particularly useful for Nigerians who have expenses outside the country.

He cited parents with children studying in the United Kingdom as an example, noting that currency fluctuations can significantly increase the cost of foreign expenses.

The Dangote Group president recalled the naira’s steep decline against the dollar, saying the exchange rate had moved from around ₦400 to about ₦1,800 to a dollar, creating difficulties for families and businesses with foreign obligations.

Beyond the potential returns for shareholders, the IPO is expected to help finance the refinery’s expansion plans. The company wants to raise its capacity from roughly 650,000–700,000 barrels per day to 1.4 million barrels per day.

However, the ₦10,000 figure should not be interpreted as a guaranteed future share price. Once the company is listed on the Nigerian Exchange, its market value will be influenced by demand and supply, business performance, investor confidence, refining margins and wider economic conditions.

The company expects the proceeds from the share sale to support its expansion and other corporate needs, while investors will only know the exact number of shares allotted to them after the offer closes and applications are processed.

Dangote’s comments therefore offer an optimistic outlook for prospective shareholders, but the eventual performance of the investment will depend on how the refinery and the wider market perform after listing.

Jetour T2 PHEV Storms Abuja as Jetour Steps Up Nigeria Expansion

Abuja is set for a major dose of electrified motoring as Jetour Nigeria takes its technologically advanced T2 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) to the nation’s capital for an experiential showcase aimed at deepening the brand’s growing footprint in Nigeria.

The Jetour T2 PHEV will headline the Jetour Experience Abuja, scheduled for September 22 to 24, 2026, following the strong reception recorded at the brand’s Lagos edition earlier this year, where customer participation, test drives and sales enquiries reportedly surged.

The move to Abuja, according to Jetour Nigeria, was largely driven by growing demand from motorists in the Federal Capital Territory who have been seeking an opportunity to experience the brand’s latest vehicles, particularly the T2 PHEV.

The Abuja activation will feature test drives, product demonstrations and interactions with Jetour’s technical and sales teams, giving prospective buyers first-hand access to the SUV and its plug-in hybrid technology.

Jetour Nigeria, the sole authorised distributor of the brand in the country, is also leveraging an expanding nationwide dealer network comprising Elizade Nigeria Limited, New Era AutoVehicle Services Limited, Kojo Motors, Germaine Auto Centre, TAB Autos Limited, R.T. Briscoe Motors and Mandilas Autos to strengthen sales and after-sales support across key markets.
