FG Increases Petrol Pump Price to N143.80

The Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency has announced a new price band of N140.80 to N143.80 per litre for Premium Motor Spirit, also known as petrol.

The PPPRA, in a circular dated July 1, 2020 to marketers, said, “After a review of the prevailing market fundamentals in the month of June and considering marketers’ realistic operating costs, as much as practicable, we wish to advise a new PMS pump price band of N140.80-N143.80 per litre for the month of July 2020.

The agency had on May 31, 2020 announced a price band of N121.50 to N123.50 per litre for the product.

Findings revealed that the hike is due to global crude oil price in July.
