<p>Arokoyo, in an interview with Punch, said, “They (Dangote refinery) said it (petrol) will be available between now and May, which is next month.<em> We are optimistic about this, because PMS is largely used by Nigerians."</em></p>
<p>A senior official at Dangote refinery, also confirmed the sale of diesel to marketers, adding that Premium Motor Spirit, popularly called petrol, would soon be released to the market.</p>
<p>The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to lack of authorisation, said the price of diesel in the country will come down following the decision of Dangote refinery.</p>
