The retail arm of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), has dismissed reports of a likely increase in the pump price of petrol.
UNITY TIMES reports that the independent oil marketers have alerted on a further increase in petrol pump price ranging between N680/litre and N720/litre if the dollar continued to trade between N910 and N950 on the parallel market.

On Monday, the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), warned of a total nationwide indefinite strike if petrol pump price is further increased.
However, the retail arm of the NNPCL, in a tweet posted on its official X (formerly Twitter) handle on Monday night, urged customers to disregard the speculations about any further increase in petrol pump price.
The tweet read, “Dear esteemed customers, we at NNPCL 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 NNPCL retail stations nationwide.”
