Dangote Petroleum Refinery filed a motion on October 6 asking the Court of Appeal in Abuja for permission to appeal as an interested party against a Federal High Court judgment dated September 28, 2026, in case FHC/ABJ/CS/1363/2026. The judgment directed NMDPRA to continue granting petroleum-product import licences to Matrix Energy, AA Rano and AYM Shafa. The filing is a request for leave; the report does not say permission was granted or that the judgment was overturned.
