Filling stations in Abuja, including those backed by Dangote Refinery and others, increase their Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) pump prices. A market check reported by multiple outlets shows that prices rise to N1,230 per litre from N1,210 at some stations.
The reports focus on locations along major routes in the Federal Capital Territory, including the Kubwa Expressway and Lugbe Expressway, where operators adjust prices. Both sources describe the change as a recent hike observed during a Saturday market survey. While the articles mention that Dangote Refinery-backed MRS filling stations are among those raising prices, neither source provides detailed reasons for the adjustment, such as changes in landing costs, exchange rates, or distribution charges.
Overall, the outlets align on the basic facts of the price change and the Abuja areas affected, with emphasis on the presence of Dangote-backed stations as well as other independent marketers.
