 Confusion over fuel price increase, NNPC denies increment ….PPPRA deletes tweet

By Dayo Badmus, 

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC has denied knowledge of any new increment on the current pump price.

Confussion started when the NNPC early friday insisted that there is no increment in the price of Premium Motor Spirit also known as petrol this month despite a template released by the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency that the new price of petrol has reached N212.6 per litre.

The confusion reached top level when the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA) deleted the petrol pricing template which they piblished on Thursday, to announce an increase in the retail price of petrol.

The template, published on its website on Thursday night, was deleted on Friday morning amid the outrage over the price increase.

The template had said the recommended retail price is between N209.61 and N212.61 per litre while the landing cost of petrol was put at N189.61.
