In response to the recent surge in petrol prices, Vice President Kashim Shettima has called an emergency meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Thursday. The meeting seeks to address the escalating costs and their implications for the Nigerian economy and citizens.
Present at the high-level talks were Senator Heineken Lokpobiri, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Oil), Mele Kyari, Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), and National Security Adviser Nuhu Ribadu.
This meeting follows Tuesday’s announcement by the NNPCL, which revealed a significant hike in petrol pump prices, now ranging from ₦855 to ₦897 per litre, depending on the region.
Further updates on the outcomes of this meeting are expected.
