The management of the Dangote Refinery has reassured Nigerians that the ongoing strike action by tanker drivers will not lead to a shortage of petroleum products across the country.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the refinery explained that adequate logistics arrangements have already been put in place to ensure uninterrupted supply of fuel despite the industrial action. It noted that the refinery has been working closely with relevant stakeholders to guarantee smooth distribution and prevent panic buying.
According to the management, alternative transport channels and coordinated delivery systems are being deployed to ensure filling stations nationwide continue to receive steady supplies.
The refinery urged Nigerians to remain calm and avoid panic purchases, stressing that the strike will not disrupt the availability of fuel in the market.
This comes amid growing concerns that the tanker drivers’ strike, which has already affected some states, could trigger fuel queues and worsen transportation costs.
