Title: DANGOTE REFINERY CUTS PETROL PRICES NATIONWIDE, CONSUMERS TO SAVE AS MUCH AS ₦15 PER LITRE Date Published: 22 May 2025 Description:  Dangote Refinery has announced a nationwide reduction in petrol prices, slashing rates by ₦15 per litre across all zones.The new price structure, which took effect this week, now sees Lagos residents paying ₦875 per litre, down from ₦890, while pump prices in the North East, South-South, and South-East regions drop from ₦920 to ₦905.The refinery, located in Lekki and known for its 650,000 barrels per day capacity, attributed the reduction to a naira-for-crude arrangement which it says has improved cost efficiency and allowed for a price drop despite economic pressures.“This reflects our commitment to easing the burden on Nigerians,” said Anthony Chiejina, Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer, in a statement. “Our premium-quality fuels not only save money but also protect your engine and the environment.”Here’s a breakdown of the new regional prices:Lagos – ₦875South-West – ₦885North-East – ₦905North-West & Central – ₦895South-South & South-East – ₦905Major fuel marketers such as MRS, Ardova, Heyden, Optima Energy, Techno Oil, and Hyde Energy are expected to adopt the new pricing, bringing immediate relief to commuters and transport operators nationwide.With fuel cost often cited as a driver of inflation in Nigeria, analysts say the price cut could offer some cushion to households battling high transportation and food costs.
