Description

The Dangote Petroleum Refinery is Africa's largest refinery with a capacity to process 650,000 barrels of crude oil per day.

Dangote Group rejected the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited's (NNPC) request to increase its stake, aiming to spread ownership through an initial public offering and maintain strategic control and flexibility for expansion.
