Dangote disclosed this during a press briefing at the refinery on Sunday.

 
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Limited is no longer holding a 20% stake in Dangote Refinery.
 
The revelation was made by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Dangote Refinery, Aliko Dangote.
 
Dangote disclosed this during a press briefing at the refinery on Sunday.
 
The business mogul revealed that the Nigerian oil company now owns only 7.2% of the refinery due to the NNPC’s failure to pay the balance of their share, which was due last month in June.
 
He stated that while the NNPC had promised to provide the funds, it has been unable to meet its obligations, thus reducing its stake in the $19 billion refinery to 7.2%.
 
“NNPC no longer owns 20% stake in the Dangote refinery. They were met to pay their balance in June, but have yet to fulfill the obligations. Now, they only own a 7.2% stake in the refinery,” Dangote said.
