The President and Chief Executive Officer of Dangote Industries Limited, Aliko Dangote, has announced plans to list the Dangote Petroleum Refinery on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NGX) in 2026.
Speaking at a press conference in Lagos on Sunday, Dangote said the move is intended to give ordinary Nigerians the opportunity to become shareholders and benefit from the refinery’s success.
“This is a step towards broader ownership and greater market transparency,” Dangote stated. “We want all Nigerians to have the chance to own a part of the refinery. You can buy as many shares as you can—this refinery is for all Nigerians.”
He added that the listing would encourage public participation in one of the country’s most significant industrial projects. “I think it’s the right time for Nigerians to invest their savings and join us in this journey,” Dangote said.
