Dangote lowers diesel price as crude falls

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has cut its Automotive Gas Oil (diesel) gantry price by N80, lowering the price from N1,780 to N1,700 per litre. This reduction, effective from October 7, 2026, is a 4.5% decline and comes amid falling diesel import costs and volatility in the international crude oil market. The latest price cut brings Dangote’s diesel price close to the prevailing import-parity cost and marks the second price reduction by the refinery within a month.
