Dangote Refinery has once more reduced the ex-depot price of its Cooking Gas, decreasing it from ₦810 per kilogram to ₦760 per kilogram.



In a development that may reshape Nigeria's domestic gas market, the Dangote Petroleum Refinery has once more lowered its ex-depot price for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). The price has decreased from ₦810 per kilogram last Wednesday to ₦760 per kilogram today.


Dangote Refinery offers Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) at a rate of ₦760 per kilogram, positioning it as the most affordable option in the local market. In comparison, both Matrix and Ardova depots have set their price at ₦920 per kilogram. Meanwhile, A.Y.M Shafa and NIPCO provide their LPG at ₦910 per kilogram. Stockgap Depot charges the most, with a price of ₦950 per kilogram.


The disparity in pricing, with Dangote’s rate at ₦760/kg compared to others priced between ₦910 and ₦950/kg, illustrates a difference of ₦150 to ₦190 per kilogram. This underscores the refinery's strategic effort to reshape the market and pressure competitors to lower their prices.


Industry experts suggest that the price difference is part of a strategic move by Dangote Refinery to regulate pricing at depots and combat unwarranted price increases that have historically disrupted the LPG market.


“Dangote’s post-maintenance price cut shows intent, not only to restore volumes but to realign pricing discipline in the domestic LPG market,” an industry analyst said.

The suspects — Sunday Kingsley (17), Sansaliu Babatunde (18), and Olowu Adamo (22), all from the Motor Vehicle Mechanic Department — confessed during interrogation that they had stolen three iron chairs, dismantled them, and intended to sell the metal to local scrap collectors known as "bollar."
