Abuja filling stations increase petrol pump prices

Many filling stations in Abuja have raised the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) despite a decline in international crude oil prices. The Dangote Refinery's ex-depot price increased to N1,265 per litre, leading to higher pump prices across the Federal Capital Territory. Economists are expressing concerns over the growing financial pressure on households, urging the government to intervene to stabilize fuel prices.
