“The Dangote Refinery said he will start today (Monday) but we are still waiting for him,” Harry said.

On June 15, the refinery dropped a hint that it will be distributing petroleum products directly to the end-users.

Stakeholders, including the Natural Oil and Gas Suppliers Association of Nigeria (NOGASA), the Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO), PETROAN kicked against it.

The associations described it as a monopolistic plot to phase out middlemen from the value chain.

The National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) has sustained its opposition to the refinery over workers’ unionization.
