They are very distinct,\u201d Kyari said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery truck that leaves every depot in this country is known \u2013 the truck driver and the planned destination of that product. We have these numbers (referring to trucks\u2019 movement from depots).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe assume that this is our consumption but we know that it might not be our consumption. We know that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2023\/03\/31\/timipre-sylva-resigns-as-minister-of-state-for-petroleum-resources\/\">petroleum<\/a> products are being smuggled out of the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know how much we supply. There is data on this. Is all of this consumed in the country? The answer is no. The reason is very simple. We have an arbitrage environment. For instance: before this decision we made, fuel sells for N185 in Abuja, just across your border there is nowhere you have prices that are lower than N500 to a litre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are actually subsidising everybody else in West Africa. I can tell you a personal experience. I travel to Sudan for a visit when a Nigerian met me and said: \u2018Gentleman, I understand you work for NNPC. Can you help me have access to fuel because people are bringing fuel here to make money from it?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat means the fuel in this country goes as far as Sudan. For other neighbouring countries around us, you cannot even talk about it. They call it Nigerian fuel in many countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNone of the countries around us imports petroleum products and you can\u2019t do something about it because there is an arbitrage environment that we have created. We have 4,500km of land borders and you don\u2019t have all the resources to man these.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Group chief executive officer (GCEO) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited, Mele Kyari has disclosed that there is no credible data to ascertain the daily consumption of petrol in Nigeria.
