In Abuja, the national oil company outlets increased their fuel pump price to N955 per litre from N890, an increment of N65.
Tribune Online monitored outlets in Central Business District (CBD), Wuse, Berger, Nyanya in FCT and Mararaba in Nasarawa State and observed that the new price has already been adjusted.
However, in AYA in Abuja, MRS filling stations sold fuel at N850 earlier in the day while AA Rano, which was a stone’s throw away, was selling at N920.
At Abacha Road in Mararaba suburb, NIPCO pegged its price at N920, as also is Zamson and AYM Shafa filling stations along the ever-busy Abuja-Keffi Expressway.
At the time of filing this report, NNPCL has not released any statement on the increment, but the decision followed an upward review of the ex-depot petrol price by Dangote Refinery to N858 per litre, up from N820.
