We Nigerians have a way of treating deadlines like suggestions. We see them, acknowledge them and tell ourselves there’s still plenty of time, until suddenly, the deadline is tomorrow and we’re wondering where the time went.
If buying shares in the Dangote Petroleum Refinery has been on your to-do list, consider this your reminder: the public offer closes on October 13, 2026. That’s three days away.
So, Have You Made Up Your Mind?
The offer opened on September 14, giving eligible investors the opportunity to buy shares in one of Africa’s biggest industrial projects. Shares are priced at ₦525 each, with a minimum purchase of 10 shares, amounting to ₦5,250 before applicable charges.
If you’ve been waiting for the offer to open, it already has. Now, it’s a matter of deciding whether the investment makes sense for you before subscriptions close.
And no, you don’t need to become Warren Buffett overnight to invest in shares, but you should understand what you’re getting into. Buying shares means owning a stake in a company, and while their value can rise, it can also fall. Returns aren’t guaranteed, so take time to read the offer documents, understand the risks and make an informed decision.
