On October 3, the Federal Government announced a VAT exemption on energy products like cooking gas, fuel, and diesel to boost investment in the oil sector and tackle economic hardship. However, less than a week later, the petrol pump price jumped again by 1.32% to about ₦1,000/liter. This, unfortunately, coincided with frequent national grid outages that intensified consumer’s dependence on fuel-powered generators. In the near term, the hike in the price of petrol is expected to further reduce consumers’ disposable income and contribute to an upward trend in inflation.
