The refinery has also launched a dedicated hotline (0800 123 5264) for consumers to report any MRS Oil Nigeria Plc stations selling petrol above the approved price. Dangote Petroleum Refinery has warned against artificial scarcity and urged regulatory authorities to take decisive action against unpatriotic practices, reaffirming its commitment to steady supply and price moderation with a guaranteed daily output of 50 million litres.
