Regulator says supply is adequate

The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority had assured Nigerians that the country has sufficient petroleum products to meet domestic demand. The regulator urged consumers to avoid panic buying and hoarding ahead of the festive season. It said supplies of diesel, petrol and liquefied petroleum gas remain adequate.

The adjustments reflect ongoing price movements in Nigeria’s deregulated petroleum market, where depot and pump rates vary by location and marketer. Lower pump prices could ease transport and operating costs for businesses and consumers, though the benefit depends on how quickly marketers pass depot cuts to retail outlets.
