Nigerian social media activist Martins Vincent Otse, also known as Verydarkman, has voiced his skepticism following the release of the first batch of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) from Aliko Dangote’s newly operational refinery.
The refinery, located in Ibeju-Lekki, was officially announced on Tuesday during a high-profile webcast, boasting a massive 650,000 barrels-per-day capacity as it transitions from test runs to full production.
While the refinery’s launch has garnered significant attention, Verydarkman has not shied away from criticizing the situation. He questioned the sudden approval for Dangote’s refinery to produce petrol, despite the previous disputes between the billionaire and the government. His critique hints at possible covert government concessions and questionable politics behind the scenes.
Verydarkman also raised concerns about the possibility of Dangote monopolizing the oil sector, drawing comparisons to his dominant control in the cement industry and other markets. In a recent press conference, Dangote thanked the government for facilitating the refinery’s operations and emphasized that the facility would not only meet Nigeria’s fuel needs but also serve sub-Saharan Africa. He also highlighted the refinery’s capacity to ensure transparency and accountability in fuel consumption and distribution.
