•Nigeria sells petrol at N161 per litre when the same is sold at higher in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ghana, Chad, and Republic of Benin – Buhari says in an Independence Day message to Nigerians

The Federal Government has said that it does not make sense for oil to be cheaper in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Niger Republic and Republic of Benin, other oil-producing nations.

This was disclosed by President Muhammadu Buhari during his Diamond Jubilee Presidential Broadcast to mark the nation’s 60th independence anniversary on Thursday.

He said, “We sell petrol at N161 per litre when same is sold at higher in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ghana, Chad, and Republic of Benin among others. It does not make sense for petrol to be cheaper in Nigeria than Saudi Arabia and other oil producing states.”
