Some residents
of Ibadan have decried the increasing price of kerosene, which sold for as much
as 200 and 230 naira per litre in some outlets.
One of the
residents called Ayo, who spoke with Space news, said the rising price had made
it difficult for the poor to buy kerosene for cooking.
Yusuf said
that the increase in kerosene price had, however, also pushed up the price of
cooking gas.
Others called
for government intervention, urging the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation
to supply the product to filling stations at the approved price to drive down
the price.
