The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) has increased the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) from between N568-N617 per litre to between N855-N897 per litre, effective immediately.
This development comes after the company announced severe financial challenges and mounting debt to petrol suppliers, posing a threat to consistent fuel supply across the country.
