Naira Crumbles to 920/$, fuel Marketers Push for fresh Price hike
Oil marketers, on Thursday, insisted on a possible hike in the pump price of petrol, following a further plunge in the value of the naira against the United States dollar.
Oil dealers and marketers said on Thursday that with the exchange rate at N920/$, the pump price of petrol could not remain at N617/litre, particularly if the current exchange rate lingered.
According to the Secretary, IPMAN, Abuja-Suleja, Mohammed Shuaibu
“the petroleum products market today is largely determined by forex.
“Of course, there was panic when the dollar was almost hitting N1,000, which is why the government is supposed to act quickly to avoid a crisis. They (the government) debunked projections of fuel price hikes. But the truth is that as it is now, no indigenous marketer is going to bring in this product any longer because of the rate of the dollar. The petrol being consumed now is from the reserve, but we don’t know what the government’s plan is. I don’t know if there is any ship that is bringing in products now.”
