FG reduces price of petrol 

The product presently sells at N168, following the decision of the Petroleum Products Marketing Company, a subsidiary of the Federal Government – owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation to raise the ex-depot price of petrol from N147.67 per litre to N155.17 per litre in November.

The ex-depot price is the price at which the product is sold by the PPMC to marketers at the depots.

Ngige said a technical committee has been set up by the larger house to ensure price stability in the industry.

The minister said that the committee, which will report back to the lager house on the 25 of January 2021, will be appraising the market forces and every other thing that will make for stability in the industry.
