Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in Epe, has lauded management of Dangote Refinery for its decision to reduce petrol and diesel prices.
It described the move as a relief for Nigerians.
In a statement signed by its Chairman, Dr. S.O. Jimoh, the branch—which oversees Epe and Ibeju-Lekki areas, where Dangote Refinery is situated—acknowledged the refinery’s dual role as a private enterprise and a driver of national development.
Jimoh said while the refinery aims to generate returns for shareholders, its influence extends beyond profits, as its products are essential to daily life, economic stability and the nation’s industrial value chains.
He noted that the price reductions were a commendable demonstration of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and empathy for the economic difficulties many Nigerians faced.
He lauded the President, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, for his proactive leadership, calling the initiative a testament to his commitment to balancing business success with societal welfare.
