In Nigeria, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), commonly known as cooking gas, has been a reliable energy source for households, prized for its cleanliness and efficiency over traditional fuels like firewood and kerosene.
Despite its popularity, the cost of cooking gas remains volatile, influenced by factors including demand, supply, location, and seasonality.
As of April 13, 2024, the average price for refilling a kilogram of cooking gas stands at ₦1,300, translating to an average of ₦16,250 for a standard 12.5kg gas cylinder.
Nevertheless, this price tag is not uniform nationwide and can fluctuate between filling stations.
