The federal government has ordered the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd. (NNPC Ltd.) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) producers to halt the export of LPG or cooking gas from November 1 to reduce prices across the country.

The decision was made public through a statement issued by Louis Ibah, the Minister’s spokesman, following a high-level meeting in Abuja between government officials and stakeholders in the LPG value chain.

The dialogue focused on the persistent increase in gas prices and the severe impact on households across the country.
