According to Maigandi, an urgent conference of petroleum marketers is scheduled for Tuesday to determine a new national petrol price.
“In light of Dangote’s most recent announcement of a petrol cut, we will be meeting on Tuesday to discuss our PMS prices. He assured the Daily Post that the price of petrol would drop starting tomorrow.
Dangote Refinery’s gantry price has been reduced after the firm raised prices on June 20, 2025, in response to a spike in oil prices worldwide brought on by the Middle East conflict between Iran and Israel.
According to the DAILY POST, as of Monday afternoon, filling station owners and marketers of petroleum products in Lagos and Abuja were dispensing fuel at prices ranging from N875 to N970 per litre, depending on the establishment.
As of Monday night, the price of gasoline at MRS Filling Station, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, AA Rano, Shafa, Mobile, Eterna, and AP Ardova, the partner of Dangote Refinery, is N945 per litre. Others that dispense petrol between N950 and N970 are Ranoil and Empire filling stations.
The new price formula for the Dangote refinery coincides with the de-escalation of the Israeli-Iranian war following the announcement of a ceasefire by US President Donald Trump.
