Dangote refinery not enough, Nigeria needs more investors — Minister

The Nigerian government has emphasized the need for more investors to contribute to the country's refining, midstream, and downstream sectors, beyond the capacity of the Dangote Refinery. Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Oil), Heineken Lokpobiri, highlighted the importance of building on the success of the Dangote Refinery and attracting additional investments to become a major refined petroleum products hub for Africa.

Lokpobiri urged stakeholders to replicate the success of the Dangote refinery by increasing investment in domestic processing, with the goal of moving beyond exporting raw commodities and importing processed products.
