It also adjusted its petrol pump price to ₦915 per litre at several of its Lagos retail outlets, marking a fresh upward shift in the downstream retail market.


The latest increase marks a fresh spike of N45 and N35 in Lagos and Abuja, respectively, up from the previous prices of N870 and N910 per litre.


The price adjustments come just days after the Dangote Petroleum Refinery increased its ex-depot price of petrol from N825 to N880 per litre, sparking an industry-wide response.


It was observed that the new pricing was implemented across several NNPC-owned filling stations, intensifying the financial strain on consumers already grappling with high transportation and living costs.
