This situation is hardly sustainable given the already humongous N4 trillion cost of the PMS subsidy,\u201d MOMAN stated. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It explained that with respect to aviation fuel, verifiable prices in West Africa ranged from $1.25 per litre in Ghana to as high as $1.51 per litre in Liberia, saying even then, the product has remained scarce across the sub-region. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MOMAN maintained that due to the intervention of NNPC over the last several weeks, aviation fuel was landed into marine terminal tanks in Nigeria at between N480 and N500 per litre, depending on the logistics efficiency of the operator. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It further explained that, \u201cdue to high costs of specific handling of Jet A1 (special transport and continuous filtration), the product is sold on the tarmac at Ikeja (our benchmark), between N540 and N550 per litre and across other airports at between N570 and N580 per litre. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDuring this period of NNPC intervention, as NNPC uses the nominal Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) exchange rate, no independent importer would import aviation fuel as it is unable to access foreign exchange at the same rate, leaving NNPC as the major importer of aviation fuel for now, even though the product is deregulated.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arise.tv\/aviation-fuel-cheaper-in-nigeria-than-other-west-african-countries-marketers-say\/\">More=Arise= <\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-42319\" data-postid=\"42319\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-42319 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited has been subsidising the price of Aviation Turbine Kerosene (ATK) commonly known as aviation fuel, in the past weeks, against the international price. &nbsp;
