MRS Oil Nigeria Plc, a prominent player in the Nigerian downstream oil industry, has implemented a new petrol price of N935 per litre across all its retail service stations nationwide.
This follows an announcement by the President of Dangote Industries Limited, Aliko Dangote, that the Dangote Petroleum Refinery has partnered with MRS Oil and Gas to offer petrol at N935 per litre at retail outlets, following a reduction in the ex-depot price from N970 to N899.50 per litre.
In response, MRS Oil Nigeria Plc has instructed all its outlets to implement the new price immediately.
It also set up a digital platform and monitoring team to ensure full compliance.
The company has also called on Nigerians to report any outlet that fails to adhere to the new price structure.
“Petrol is now being sold at N935 at MRS Filling Stations nationwide.
“If you find any station not following this price, please report it. Call 08009447853 or email: NG-FMKPMGWHISTLEBLOWING@NG.KPMG.COM,” the company stated in a release.
Emphasising the eco-friendly nature of its products, MRS Oil added : “We call on all petrol station owners to join MRS Oil Nigeria Plc in improving the supply chain of our beloved country, ensuring product quality and availability in every corner of Nigeria for the benefit of all Nigerians.”
Checks by our correspondents yesterday confirmed that the new price had been implemented at all MRS Oil and Gas retail outlets nationwide.
In Lagos, commuters were seen queueing at MRS filling stations to purchase petrol.
Many expressed their gratitude to Dangote Petroleum Refinery and MRS Oil and Gas, urging other marketers to support the indigenous refinery rather than import off-spec products into the country.
