Dangote Petroleum Refinery has increased its ex-depot price for premium motor spirit, also known as petrol, to N880 per litre.
Gatekeepers News reports that this represents a N55 increase from the previous rate of N825 per litre.
Abubakar Shettima, national president of
IPMAN confirmed the development on Saturday.
He said, “We are aware that the refinery has reviewed the price to N880 per litre. Our members have been informed.”
The development comes shortly after the refinery launched nationwide logistics operations for the distribution of petrol and diesel, alongside the acquisition of 4,000 compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered tankers to enhance nationwide fuel delivery.
