Seemingly, FG Increases Fuel Price




 


There are indications that the federal Government has increased the price of petrol again.


It was learnt that the government quietly approved ₦185 as the new petrol pump price per litre.

The newly approved price comes weeks after there had been nationwide petrol scarcity, leading to long queues in fuel stations since late November 2022.


Although the official pump price was ₦165 per litre many fuel stations sold fuel above ₦200 per litre in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria.
