The PPPRA is the agency of the Federal Government that fixes and regulates the prices of white products, kerosene and petrol, across the country.
In its latest template released on Saturday, the agency stated that the retail price of kerosene or HHK by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation was N83 per litre.
The commodity is believed to be mostly consumed by low income earners in the country.
The new template showed that the retail or pump price of HHK was now N10.72 higher than the Expected Open Market Price of the commodity. The EOMP, according to the new template, is N72.28.
The EOMP is a summation of the landing cost of the commodity with the subtotal margins like bridging fund, transporters' cost, dealers charge, admin charge, etc.
