Marketers pointed to data from a June 19 webinar showing Dangote sells fuel to foreign traders at N65 per liter less than locals, who then ship it to Togo's Lomé hub and re-import it to Nigeria—accounting for 70-80% of seaborne imports from March to May 2026. Dangote Refinery fired back, calling the claims false and noting contract bans on re-exports, high round-trip costs of US$68-90 per ton, and traceability measures that make it uneconomic. The uproar highlights ongoing tensions in Nigeria's shifting fuel market, where the refinery has slashed imports by 39% and made the country a net exporter, yet pump prices linger at N1,200-1,300 per liter amid recent price cuts to N1,176.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Nigerian fuel marketers stunned many by saying they buy Dangote Refinery petrol cheaper in Togo than straight from Lagos, even with shipping added on.
