NNPCL adjusts fuel price to N1,030 per litre in Abuja, N998 in Lagos
Filling stations operated by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Limited have increased the pump price of fuel again.
According to a survey by Nairametrics, the product, which previously sold for N897 per liter in Abuja, now sells for N1,030.
At NNPC stations in Gwagwalada, Wuse, and Lugbe, in Abuja, motorists queued as they waited for attendants to commence fuel sales.
In Lagos, the fuel price has increased from N885 per liter to N998, with long queues observed at the stations.
This adjustment follows reports of a potential price hike due to NNPCL’s withdrawal as an intermediary in the Dangote Refinery purchase deal.
This marks the second upward adjustment by NNPC between September and October.
