The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited has resumed large-scale importation of petrol, barely a year after declaring it had stopped bringing the product into the country, The PUNCH reports. Latest figures from the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority show that NNPC imported the bulk of Nigeria’s petrol needs in November, as the importers supplied 1.563 billion litres during the month. The authority disclosed this in its latest November 2025 Fact Sheet titled State of the Midstream and Downstream Sector, released on Wednesday. The publication is part of a new monthly reporting framework the regulator introduced last month to strengthen transparency and provide real-time insight into fuel supply, consumption, and refinery performance across the country. According to the report, NNPC Limited and other marketers imported 52.1 million litres of petrol per day in November, amounting to 1.563 billion litres for the month. This represents a near 89 per cent increase compared to the 828 million litres imported in October, highlighting a sharp rebound in fuel importation after weeks of below-threshold supply.
