The price of gasoline has been raised by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, or NNPCL, to N835 per litre in Lagos and N839 per litre in Abuja. On Wednesday, the national oil corporation changed prices at all retail locations in both cities. 

The change amounts to an increase of N20 from N815 per litre in Abuja and N50 from the previous N785 per litre in Lagos. 

Just one day after Dangote Refinery announced an increase in the ex-gantry price of gasoline to N799 a litre, the most recent increase was made.

David Bird, the chief executive officer of Dangote Petroleum Refinery, stated that the plant still supplies roughly 50 million liters of PMS per day to the domestic market and that distribution and evacuation are still going well across the country. 

Bird also guaranteed that the refinery's operational flexibility enables it to process a variety of crude and intermediate feedstocks, guaranteeing a steady supply of PMS even during scheduled maintenance tasks. 

After the revision, the refinery said that partner outlets, including as MRS filling stations, will sell the product at N839 per litre instead of N739.
