Dangote Refinery⁠ has denied allegations that petroleum products refined at its facility are exported to Lomé, Togo, and later re-imported into Nigeria, describing the claims as false, misleading and without any operational or commercial basis.

In a statement issued by its management, the company expressed concern over reports suggesting that its products are routed through neighbouring countries before returning to the Nigerian market. The refinery maintained that the allegations do not reflect its business operations.

The company stated that although it does not usually respond to unfounded claims, it considered it necessary to address the issue in the interest of transparency and public understanding. It reiterated its commitment to supplying quality petroleum products and conducting its operations in line with established industry standards.
