This latest increase, implemented on Monday, June 23, reflects a ₦35 to ₦45 jump from the previous prices of ₦910 and ₦870 per litre in the Federal Capital Territory and Lagos, respectively.
The adjustment follows the recent hike in ex-depot prices by Dangote Petroleum Refinery, from ₦825 to ₦880 per litre, which has triggered price increases across the downstream petroleum market.
At various NNPC retail stations in Abuja, the new price of ₦945 per litre was prominently displayed.
In Lagos, outlets also reflected the ₦915 revised rate.
