What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

Following the removal of the fuel subsidy, the federal government of Nigeria announced a price modulation mechanism aimed at stabilizing petrol prices at no more than N1350 per litre, according to the Minister of Finance. Separately, the federal government introduced a 30-day discount scheme for NNPC retail stations, offering motorists a ₦66 reduction per litre. This discount applies exclusively to NNPC retail outlets and prioritizes public transport operators.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The shift in pricing follows the removal of the petrol subsidy, which has led to pump prices moving based on refinery and import landing costs rather than fixed government prices. Stakeholders have criticized the proposed price cap, with some calling for a return to previous price levels to reduce the cost of living.
