Aliko Dangote, the president of Dangote Group, has explained why the first Premium Motor Spirit—also referred to as gasoline—sample from his refinery was clearer than the gasoline that is already in use. Speaking at a live stream from his refinery in Lagos State's Ibeju-Lekki neighborhood, Dangote emphasized that cleaner gasoline is better for the environment and may help lessen health risks related to contaminated petroleum products.

He mentioned that the new gasoline will shield engines from harm caused by conventional gasoline's lack of clarity. "This is the gasoline sample," he declared. It may appear to be a different color, but that is the case. You will now possess a genuine and high-quality product.

"I'm sure Nigerians haven't seen this color of diesel before," Dangote added about the diesel's color. "We refer to this as Euro-5 diesel. Less than 10 parts per million (PPM) of sulfur are present in it. This will extend the lifespan of engines, generators, and automobiles. "The environment and public health will not be jeopardized," he emphasized again.
