Recall that on January 12, 2023, the Dangote Refinery commenced production of diesel and aviation fuel. The refinery, with a 650,000 barrel-per-day oil processing capacity was officially inaugurated by former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Before the commencement of operations, the refinery had received six shipments of one million barrels of crude cargo. 

On December 10, 2023, Otedola said the refinery is a beacon of hope for millions of Nigerians and Africans, adding that it is also at the vanguard of championing environmental sustainability.
