Nigerian Filling Stations To Reduce Fuel Price Near N1,000 Per Litre Amid Pressu by Islie(op): 9:18am On Jun 30

By Ogaga Ariemu

Nigerian filling stations have hinted at plans to drop the premium motor spirit pump price to near N1,000 per litre amid pressure.

DAILY POST reports that in the last two weeks Nigeria’s petroleum downstream sector has witnessed a downward fuel price reduction.

Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, recently reduced its petrol price to N1,210 per litre barely two days after Dangote Refinery adjusted its petrol gantry price to N1,125 per litre.

This comes amid calls by Nigerians for a commensurate drop in the pump price of petrol as crude oil prices fell to around $73 per barrel, up from over $100 per barrel owing to the relative easing of the crisis in the Middle East.

At the weekend, the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission warned oil firms in Nigeria against exploitation and profiteering after DAILY POST report on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government being silent over the fuel price concerns.

Reacting, an MRS filling station manager in Abuja told DAILY POST under anonymity that the fuel retail outlet will by Tuesday or Wednesday, drop its petrol price to between N1,201 and N1,191 per litre.

The spokesperson of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Chinedu Ukadike, also confirmed planned further fuel price drop.

Ukadike said the price would head towards N1000 per litre if crude oil prices continued to fall.

He attributed the current fuel pricing to refiners and importers.

According to him, petroleum product markets want the best fuel price for their customers to remain competitive.

“So you see this is coming down gradually. It’s possible the fuel price will drop to N1000 per litre or less if the crude oil price keeps reducing and refiners and depot owners follow.

“It is simply based on the factors of demand and supply,” he told DAILY POST.

DAILY POST reports that pump price stood between N1,210 and N1,300 per litre in Abuja and environs as of Monday night, while crude Brent and West Texas Intermediate stood at $72 and $70 per barrel, respectively.

Very useless wicked and evil business people

Prophet Muhammad told us: if price increase in the market you must sell your goods at the initial price as long as you've not bought new product that carries the increments but here in Nigeria even our Muslim business men are the first to increase price of their old stocks

Evil people practicing wicked approach

Let the price go back to what it was before the US Iran War. Anything outside that is fraudulent.

Reduce it to at least 500 or 600 per liter.

But in Nigeria, it's always future impossible tense and the citizens will still cheer them up.

U already know the kind of citizens I'm talking about.

Reduce back to where it was before the iran war... I've said it that Nigerians are just wicked... Crude oil price went up, immediately you increased your price of petrol... Now the price is down and you're moving at snail pace to reduce it to the amount it was before the increase.... Kai

This was the same questions people in USA were asking their government as at 2015

They produces their fuel but it was costly because there was no subsidy. So we import from USA and still get it less than USA citizens then. Subsidy money is better used for infrastructure than borrowing and spending on nonsense subsidy that is only benefiting big importers
