As a direct fallout of the recent suspension of sales of petroleum products in naira by the Dangote refinery, MRS filling station has effected a new price regime, raising its pump price to N930 per litre in Lagos and N960 for residents living in the northern part of the country.
The new price regime, effective from March 28, 2025, represents an increase of N70 from the previous price of N860 per litre in Lagos, N870 in other South-West states, and an N80 difference from the N880 previously sold in the North.
Some other filling stations, it was gathered, have also started selling at the same rates.
For instance, NIPCO sold at N930 in Magboro, Ogun State, on Saturday.
According to the latest price list from MRS Oil & Gas, its trucks will load products from the Lagos depot and convey them directly to its retail stations nationwide at varying costs.
The document showed that Lagos had the lowest rates, with northern states getting the highest rates.
The firm, however, did not state whether it bought products from the Dangote refinery.
In Lagos, petrol will sell for N930 per litre, while states in the South-West and Kwara, will pay N940 per litre. [The Punch]
