A recent development is affecting households and businesses. The cost of petrol is rising due to higher international crude oil prices. Major marketers have increased their prices, with some filling stations now charging N1,400 per litre.

This change is putting pressure on various groups, including transporters and commuters. Some stations have raised their prices by N100 per litre, while others have increased theirs from around N1,360 to N1,400. Further information on this situation is available from the source.
