Cooking gas prices have skyrocketed across Nigeria, with Lagos residents now paying between N2,500 and N3,000 per kilogram, as scarcity grips major cities.
In the Moshalashi area of Idi-Oro, the price of refilling a 12.5kg cylinder has surged to N21,600, while around Amuwo Odofin, the same quantity now costs as high as N26,000 equivalent to N2,080 per kg.
In Abuja, the price is slightly lower but still biting hard on households, with a 12.5kg cylinder going for about N20,000 (N1,600 per kg) around the Nyanya axis.
