What it is. NNPC Retail's pump price for petrol in Lagos after each announced change, from dated coverage of the company's announcement. A company price, not an official statistic.
Neither way is good in itself. Whether a change is welcome depends on why it happened, so read it against its own history and other countries.
Why it matters. A single figure says little on its own: its direction over time and its place among other countries say more.

NNPC Retail's pump price for petrol in Lagos after each announced change, in naira per litre. This is a company price, not an official statistic. It is the list price, before any discount offered to customers who pay through the NNPC Fuel App.
Each point is dated by the announcement and cites news coverage of it. A point is added when at least two named news outlets report the same announcement with a clear date. One exception is marked on its source: the price from 1 October 2026 comes from a single outlet, Legit.ng.
The official national average from the National Bureau of Statistics is a separate indicator and runs two to three months behind. The two are not comparable: this series is one company's price in one city.
