The Crude Oil Refinery Owners Association of Nigeria has appealed for calm in the ongoing dispute between the Dangote Refinery, Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association of Nigeria, warning that rivalry could derail Nigeria’s refining progress.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday and signed by its Chairman, Momoh Oyarekhua, the association urged both sides to prioritize national interest over personal or corporate rivalry.
DAPPMAN however raised fears about fair competition and supply arrangements, while Dangote Refinery maintains that domestic refining should be allowed to stabilise without undue interference.
