Africa’s Global Bank, United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, has been named as an authorised financial institution through which eligible investors can subscribe to acquire shares of the highly anticipated Initial Public Offering (IPO) of Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals FZE.
This means that UBA can provide investors with access to the landmark public offer, which presents Nigerians and eligible international investors with an opportunity to become shareholders in one of Africa’s most significant industrial investments.
The Dangote Refinery IPO offers 4.1 billion ordinary shares at ₦525 per share, with a minimum subscription of 10 shares valued at ₦5,250, and investors can apply for additional shares in accordance with the terms of the offer.
The offer, scheduled to open on Monday, September 14, 2026 will close on October 13, 2026, subject to the terms contained in the offer documents.
UBA is encouraging interested investors, including its customers and members of the investing public, to take advantage of its approved channels to participate in the offer.
Commenting on the development, Executive Director Designate, UBA Group, Tosin Adewuyi, said: said: “We are pleased to be named as one of the approved financial institutions providing access to the Dangote Refinery public offer. At UBA, we remain committed to deepening financial inclusion and expanding opportunities for individuals and businesses to participate meaningfully in Nigeria’s capital market.»
“This public offer provides eligible investors with an opportunity to participate in the ownership of a major Nigerian industrial enterprise. We encourage interested investors to obtain and carefully review the offer documents, understand the terms and risks involved, and make informed investment decisions,” Adewuyi said.
He explained that eligible investors can subscribe for the Dangote Refinery shares through UBA’s approved subscription channels.

The Dangote Refinery IPO is expected to be a landmark transaction for Nigeria’s capital market, with the public offer designed to broaden participation in the ownership of the refinery and provide retail investors with an opportunity to invest in the business.
The bank therefore invites individuals, professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, institutional investors and other eligible investors interested in participating in the offer to subscribe through UBA.
Investors are, however, advised to read the Prospectus and other offer documents carefully and seek appropriate professional advice where necessary before investing. An investment in shares carries risks, and the value of an investment may rise or fall.
UBA also advises investors to subscribe only through approved channels and to remain vigilant against fraudulent investment schemes. The official Dangote Refinery IPO website specifically warns investors never to disclose their PIN, password or OTP or pay money into a personal account.
The Bank advises subscribers to read the Prospectus and relevant offer documents before subscribing.
