NNPCL Increases Petrol Price to N992 Per Litre Amid Limited Fuel Supply

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has increased the price of petrol to N992 per litre, up from N865 per litre.

As of now, the company has not provided any official explanation for the hike.

Visits to NNPC retail outlets by The Nation revealed attendants adjusting pumps to reflect the new rate. At the Ojodu Berger station on Ogunusi Road, attendants confirmed they were instructed to update the price to N992 per litre.

However, checks at Ibafo along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway showed some NNPC stations still displaying the old price of N875 per litre, though they were not selling fuel to motorists.

Most of the NNPC outlets visited were not dispensing petrol, highlighting ongoing shortages despite the price increase.
