Latest Cooking Gas Price Across Nigeria – Monday, October 26, 2026

The retail price of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), commonly known as cooking gas, continues to fluctuate across various states in Nigeria today, Monday, October 26, 2026, with retail prices ranging between ₦1,300 and ₦1,700 per kilogram.

The variation comes on the back of recent adjustments by major coastal LPG depots and domestic refiners.

While Dangote Refinery recently maintained a competitive ex-refinery benchmark of approximately ₦1,025 per kilogram, other private terminal depots including Navgas, NIPCO, Techno Oil, and Stockgap adjusted wholesale rates upward, ranging between ₦1,200 and ₦1,250 per kilogram due to international crude price movements and freight costs.

At major gas filling stations and retail skid plants across urban centers, the cost of refilling popular cylinder sizes reflects regional transportation overheads and retail margins.

Standard Refill Cost Breakdown:

• 3kg Cylinder: ₦3,900 – ₦5,100
