“The 60 million litres will be distributed nationwide once lifting begins,” he explained, noting that the partnership has already influenced a drop in pump prices.

“Prices have fallen by N10, N15, and in some cases as much as N50 at our member stations. This reduction is due to increased competition and the impact of deregulation in the oil and gas sector,” Ukadike added.

The deal marks a significant step in addressing fuel availability and affordability across Nigeria, bringing relief to consumers amid fluctuating petrol prices.
