The Business NG
|The BusinessNG
In a bid to address growing concerns over petrol pricing and supply volatility in Nigeria's downstream sector, the federal government has scheduled a two-day national stakeholders forum for July 23 and 24, 2025, to establish clear petrol pricing guidelines in the post-subsidyera.
-
The announcement was made by Francis Ogaree, Executive Director of Hydrocarbon Processing Plants, Installation, and Transportation Infrastructure at the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA), during a session at the 24th Nigeria Oil and Gas Energy Week in Abuja.
The forum, according to Ogaree, will bring together marketers, refiners, industry operators, and top government officials to deliberate on key issues such as pricing benchmarks, feedstock availability, operational uncertainties, and investment sustainability in local refining.

MPC Meeting: All Eyes on CBN as Analysts Predict Fresh Rate Cut
As Nigeria's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) prepares to meet on November 24-25, analysts across the financial sector are forecasting another policy rate cut, citing easing inflation, stronger macroeconomic fundamentals, and improved foreign exchange stability. The meeting comes just weeks after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) cut the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) by 50 basis points to 27%, marking the first rate reduction in nearly ten consecutive policy meetings under Governor Olayemi Cardoso. Stakeholders say this week's meeting will be a decisive test of the CBN's confidence in Nigeria's emerging disinflation trend. Inflation eased to 16.05% in October—down from 18.02% in September—following the CPI rebasing exercise and improvements in food supply, FX liquidity, and general price stability.
