MRS, other Nigerian filling stations increase petrol pump price

Dangote Refinery-backed MRS and other Nigerian filling stations have increased their retail prices of Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, popularly known as petrol.

A Monday morning market survey showed that filling stations in Abuja and environs raised petrol prices to N1,409 per litre from N1,370.

This means that MRS filling stations increased their petrol pump price by N39 per litre over the weekend.

The new price has been implemented at MRS outlets in Kubwa, Katampe, Gwarimpa and other areas of Abuja.

Similarly, Ranoil and AA Rano raised petrol prices across their outlets by N10 per litre to N1,410 from N1,400.

The development comes as the Federal Government, through the Minister of Finance, Taiwo Oyedele, proposed a petrol price discount to N1,350 per litre at Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, filling stations.

However, fuel retailers and marketers have urged the Federal Government to extend the fuel price initiative to other filling stations.
