NNPCL: We’re not increasing petrol price

Amid growing concerns about a potential increment in the price of petrol, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited has stated that it has no plan to raise the pump price per litre of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS).

In a terse statement on Monday night, the company called on Nigerians to disregard speculations of a fresh hike in price of petrol.

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) through its President, Joe Ajaero, had on Monday, threatened to go on strike without notice if there is any fresh price increase.

But, NNPCL spokesman, Muhammad Garbadeen, in a terse statement, stated that there is no increment for now.

“Dear esteemed customers, we at NNPC Retail value your patronage, and we do not have the intention to increase our PMS pump prices as widely speculated.

“Please buy the best quality products at the most affordable prices at our NNPC Retail Stations nationwide,” Garbadeen said.
