Gas prices
EKO HOT BLOG reports that a recent report highlights a significant drop in the price of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), commonly known as cooking gas.
According to a market survey conducted by reporters, dealers have slashed the product’s price to ₦900 per kilogramme from the ₦1,300 it was selling for weeks earlier.
This decrease is attributed to improved supplies from various depots, as well as the relative availability of foreign exchange for import.
Additionally, a manager at Gasland depot in the Iju-Ishaga area of Lagos, who preferred to remain anonymous, mentioned that the price reduction was also influenced by the Nigerian government’s decision to remove value-added tax (VAT) from the product.

He revealed that 12.5kg sells for about ₦10,000 from the ₦14,300 it sold two weeks prior.
