Nigerian government says its decision to remove fuel subsidy has not been reversed
CONTRARY to reports by a section of the Nigerian media, the federal government has not reversed its decision to remove subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, moreso when there is no appropriation for subsidy in the 2016 budget.
The Petroleum Products Price Regulatory Agency, PPPRA, wishes to state categorically that what still exists is Price Modulation Policy, through which it considers and reviews pump price of PMS quarterly.
The agency also wishes to assure Nigerians that the funds from over-recovery in the first quarter (Q1) shall be duly utilised for whatever noticeable imbalance in April 2016 in line with the Price Modulation Principle.
While appreciating the patience of Nigerians, the PPPRA wishes to reiterate its commitment to ensuring seamless supply and distribution of petroleum products in the Country, a statement signed by Sotonye E. Iyoyo, acting executive secretary, PPPRA said on April 4.
