Dangote Refinery and petroleum products depot owners have increased their ex-depot prices of premium motor spirit owing to the spike in global oil prices as Israel-Iran strikes entered day five on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Reacting, the National President of the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria, Billy Gillis-Harry, said the impact of global oil prices generally affects the price of PMS or any component of petroleum-refined products.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn a general note, any cost shift in any of the components of producing refined products will certainly affect the price,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria\u2019s Festus Osifo claimed that oil marketers are exploiting Nigerians through inflated petrol prices. According to him, the current petrol pump price should be between N700 and N750 per litre.<\/p>\n
