The recent increase is base on high cost of crude in the international market due to the ongoing war in Iran, that is seriously affecting the Middle East.
It obviously will affect Nigeria cos price of crude to Dangote refinery must be in tune with international market price.
Same affects cost of importation.
Still likely to go higher in the days ahead.

omoredia:

mightyhaze:
But is Nigeria not selling crude oil too and making money from the windfall..so we only partake in the suffering aspect but not on the gainful aspect?

Emancipate thyself

This looks like fake news. They are selling fuel in my area 700 per litre.

This fake news is nothing but propaganda from opposition parties.

Asiwaju 2027 here we come. All nigerians are fully in support of you.

U see where d problem is...

We easily blamed big companies for trying to survive... But we don't blame the poor for making life more difficult


When petrol was 1200+
Transport increased price, when it can down to 800 they didn't reduce prices

Now it went back to 1k
They are increasing prices again


But na Dangote be the problem...
Price of crude has jumped.

Even if Dangote is buying it in Naira, it's been sold at international price

Which Nigerians are expressing outrage?

is it only Obidients, Peter Obi, MNK, screw driver seller in Onitsha and Donald Trump that are expressing outrage ?...

They vote in nonsense and expect the nonsense to make sense, for those who will come and talk nonsense about the war in Iran, the question I will be asking you is:

If the price of crude oil goes up, isn't it supposed to be blessing to Nigeria that sells oil?

And if the price of petrol goes up because of that, isn't Nigeria supposed to be making more money to cushion the effect on the citizens?

So why were you people all blaming Jonathan for selling crude oil at over 100$ per barrel when he constantly paid subsidy in return to cushion the effect on Nigerians while Tinubu is selling high and is not cushioning the effects, you people can't even say where the extra profit is going to because all the ministries are currently underfunded and Nigeria is running 3 different year budgets because of failure to meet implementations year after year.

What a shame on Tinubu and his supporters, what are Nigerians gaining from higher prices of crude oil like in GEJ's time?

folake4u:
I don't know for these people but I had asked the keke driver yesterday and he said that the petrol stations increased their price and it is affecting them as well, plus the long queues.

I feel this incoming week might be worse.

Basic123:
You mean their thief president stole the petrol

Mention what a non thieving president will have done at this time to reduce the price of a deregulated price withour subsidy?
