Nigeria: Dangote Refinery Cuts Petrol, Diesel Prices

Dangote Refinery reduced petrol and diesel gantry prices by N100 following global crude price volatility, easing fuel costs amid previous hikes up to N1,175 and N1,620 per liter.

  • On Monday, retail petrol jumped to N1,400 per litre and diesel to N1,750 at pumps after filling stations raised prices, while President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has kept mum.
  • Market data show Brent crude surged to $98.86 while West Texas Intermediate fell to $88.11 as Dangote attributed moves to global crude volatility and Gulf region geopolitical developments.
  • Dangote Refinery lowered gantry petrol to N1,075 and coastal PMS to N1,050, excluding NMDPRA fees, on March 10, 2026.
  • Transporters in Abuja confirmed fare hikes to N1,500 from N1,200, while manufacturers face pressure to pass higher diesel costs to consumers.
  • Industry warnings point to potential spikes as high as N2,000 or N3,000, with PETROAN urging regulators to pursue a price‑stability programme without controls after petrol rose by N525 at NNPC outlets before the Iran–United States–Israel conflict escalated on February 28, 2026.
