The federal government, on Monday, held a closed-door meeting with the management of the Dangote Refinery and the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) over the price of petrol in Nigeria.
Naijaonpoint understands that the meeting focused on pushing down the price of petrol in Nigeria folowing the reduced tension in the Middle East, which had earlier caused a spike in the price of petrol in Nigeria.
The meeting, held at the headquarters of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) in Abuja, also has in attendance the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) and other oil and gas stakeholders.
Representatives and chief executives from TotalEnergies, Eterna, Matrix Energy, Depot and Petroleum Products Retailers Association of Nigeria (DPRP), Major Energy Marketers Association of Nigeria (MEMAN), Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association of Nigeria (DAPPMAN), Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO), and staff members of the NMDPRA also attended the meeting.
