The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has moved decisively to address the widespread Quality of Service (QoS) degradation and network outages frustrating subscribers across Abuja, officially confirming the cause as a diesel supply disruption, reports ITREALMS.

The Association of Licensed Telecommunications Operators of Nigeria (ALTON), has expressed deep concern over the ongoing disruptions to diesel supply logistics for cell sites nationwide, reports ITREALMS.

Dangote Petroleum Refinery & Petrochemicals has reduced the cost of its diesel product to N1,020 per litre, down from N1,075 per litre at the gantry price, in an effort to better serve its customers and Nigerians in general.
Since it began diesel production in January 2024, the refinery has reduced the price of diesel more than three times, from an initial N1,700 per litre to the current rate, thus providing much-needed relief to manufacturers and consumers alike.
In an unprecedented move, Dangote Petroleum Refinery has announced a further reduction of the price of diesel from 1200 to 1,000 naira per litre.
While rolling out the products, the refinery supplied at a substantially reduced price of N1,200 per litre three weeks ago, representing over 30 per cent reduction from the previous market price of about N1,600 per litre.
