In a recent statement, Joseph Obele, the Chairman of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Rivers State Chapter, shed light on a potential solution to Nigeria’s soaring fuel prices. Obele emphasized that if the country’s refineries were revitalized, the price of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) could plummet to as low as N200 per litre.
This revelation comes in response to the significant increase in fuel prices following the removal of subsidies in June. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration had pledged to restart production at the Port Harcourt refinery by December 2023. Heineken Lokpobiri, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, reiterated the government’s commitment during a recent visit to the Port Harcourt refinery.
