Marketers Petition Tinubu Over Plummeting Diesel Prices, Senate Delays Sabotage Hearing
Devakumar Edwin, Vice President of Dangote Industries Limited, revealed that petroleum marketers in Nigeria have raised concerns over the pricing of locally refined diesel.
These marketers have formally approached President Bola Tinubu, expressing dissatisfaction with the current price trends.
According to Edwin, diesel prices have seen a significant reduction, dropping from N1,200 per litre to N900 per litre, and this has had an adverse effect on the marketers’ businesses.
He shared these insights during a Twitter Space session hosted by Nairametrics on Thursday.
During the session, Edwin explained that the marketers are worried about the declining prices, which, in their view, threaten their business profitability.
They believe the situation could impact the overall dynamics of the oil and gas industry if not addressed promptly.
Additionally, the Senate recently announced a delay in the public hearing concerning alleged sabotage in Nigeria’s petroleum sector.
This development was confirmed by Senator Opeyemi Bamidele, the Leader of the Senate and Chairman of the Senate Ad-hoc Committee, who stated that the hearing would be postponed.
The issue of sabotage has been a topic of concern, and stakeholders hope the eventual hearing will shed light on the underlying issues affecting the industry.

The NUT, led by Abdullahi Shafa, resumed the strike after the councils failed to meet their financial obligations. The strike will persist until the councils address demands for the remaining wage arrears, salary increases, and allowances. Parents are advised to keep their children at home, and teachers are instructed to follow union directives. Efforts to reach officials for comment were unsuccessful.
