The federal Government had in May, when subsidy was officially removed, fastened the ceiling for PMS at N145.
According to one source: “Okay now let’s do the logistics behind my clams PMS is been sold for 145 rights? Good, but marketers buy drafts at 133 per litre. Loading expenses will land you around 138 – 140 hence filing stations sell at 143 – 145. This morning 20 Naira was added by NNPC on drafts which lands at 153. So expect your Pms to be sold at #165.”
According to bases, the Pipelines and Product Marketing Company (PPMC), a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), decided to increase the ex-depot price to 135 Naira per litre with effect from Monday (Today), after the last consignment of about 17,000MT capacity imported vessel arrives Lagos last week.

It was also learnt that the public who are the end users would not be losing much as the product had always sold above the 83 N
aira official price because of racketeering by officials of PPMC and the marketers.
