WALVIS BAY, NAMIBIA, JUL 10 – The 1.6 million-barrel storage facility in Walvis Bay will supply refined fuels to Namibia and four neighboring countries, advancing Dangote Refinery's pan-African distribution strategy.
- Dangote Group plans to build fuel storage tanks holding at least 1.6 million barrels in Walvis Bay, Namibia, aiming to supply southern Africa.
- This expansion follows Dangote refinery's $20 billion facility start last year after Nigeria's government reversed its earlier refinery privatization deal.
- Dangote refinery now produces 650,000 barrels per day, meeting Nigeria’s demand while expanding exports beyond West Africa—including a shipment to Asia last month.
- Former President Obasanjo and others criticized NNPC’s management, noting over $2 billion spent with no refinery results, saying, “NNPC cannot do it” and scrap value is $200 million.
- Meanwhile, the North East Coalition urged President Tinubu to investigate NNPC’s refinery failures, highlighting unaccounted rehabilitation funds and calling for accountability and transparency.
