Dangote Heads to Court to Court to Annul Import Licenses of NNPCL, Ors.

Dangote Refinery has approached the Federal High Court in Abuja, seeking to annul the import licences granted to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, Matrix Petroleum Services Limited, and A. A. Rano.

Dangote, in the petition, informed the court that the NNPCL and the above-mentioned companies obtained the licence 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 case also seeks 100 Billion Naira in damages from the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, NMDPRA.

Furthermore, Dangote Refinery alleged that the NMDPRA has been improperly granting import licences to the companies for the importation of petroleum products, including AGO and jet fuel, into Nigeria.
