Recently, the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) announced that the government had not yet licensed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2024\/07\/22\/im-ready-to-let-go-dangote-offers-to-sell-his-refinery-to-fg-owned-nnpc\/\">Dangote refinery<\/a> to begin operations in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Farouk Ahmed, the CEO of NMDPRA, stated that claims of efforts to obstruct Dangote\u2019s refinery operations due to the lack of crude oil supply from International Oil Companies were unfounded. He added that the refinery was still at the pre-commissioning stage and had not been licensed. Ahmed also claimed that the diesel produced by Dangote was below international standards, a claim Dangote refuted.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with PREMIUM TIMES, Dangote recounted how a friend he had urged to invest in Nigeria out of patriotism is now taunting him. \u201cFour years ago, one of my wealthy friends began investing his money abroad. I disagreed with him and urged him to rethink his actions in his country&#8217;s interest. He blamed his action on policy inconsistencies and shenanigans of interest groups. That friend has been taunting me in the past few days, saying he warned me and that he has been proven right,\u201d Dangote said.<\/p>\n<p>Dangote emphasized that his investment in the refinery was meant to solve a significant issue in Nigeria. He expressed frustration over his obstacles, saying, \u201cAs you probably know, I am 67 years old. In less than three years, I will be 70. I need very little to live the rest of my life. I can\u2019t take the refinery or any other property or asset to my grave. Everything I do is in the interest of my country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cWe have been facing a fuel crisis since the 70s. This refinery can help resolve the problem, but it does appear that some people are uncomfortable with me being in the picture. So I am ready to let go, let the NNPC buy me out, and run the refinery. At least the country will have high-quality products and create jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 650,000 barrel-per-day refinery began operations last year after a decade of construction and cost $19 billion\u2014more than double the initial estimate\u2014promises to help Nigeria reduce its reliance on imported fuel and save up to 30 percent of the foreign exchange spent on importing goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dangote revealed a friend who invested abroad is taunting him over recent issues with the Nigerian government regarding his refinery project
