In Brief

  • •Additional fuel stations in Abuja, including AA Rano and Ranoil, reduced retail petrol prices by N20 to N1,400 per litre.
  • •The adjustments follow earlier reductions by NNPCL, MRS, and Geregu stations, which lowered retail prices to N1,370 per litre.
  • •Retail petrol prices across Abuja and surrounding areas currently range between N1,370 and N1,430 per litre.
