Latest Cooking Gas Price Across Nigeria – Monday, November 2, 2026

Retail Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), commonly known as cooking gas, recorded fresh price adjustments across major refilling plants and retail outlets nationwide on Monday, November 2, 2026, driven by expanded domestic allocations and reduced import reliance.

The latest market monitoring indicates that the average price of refilling a 12.5kg cylinder of cooking gas has moderated across several geopolitical zones, providing marginal relief to household consumers and commercial food vendors following recent supply interventions by local producers.

Bulk supply stabilization from domestic facilities, alongside steady domestic vessel deliveries, helped mitigate earlier distribution bottlenecks across major coastal terminals in Lagos and Port Harcourt.

As of Monday, November 2, 2026, the retail price profile for cooking gas across key states and geopolitical hubs presents as follows:

• Lagos State: Refilling a 12.5kg cylinder currently ranges between ₦14,500 and ₦15,200, while the cost per kilogram at independent refilling stations averages between ₦1,160 and ₦1,220.
• Abuja (FCT): The price for a 12.5kg cylinder stands between ₦15,000 and ₦15,800, with per-kilogram retail sales hovering around ₦1,200 to ₦1,260.
• Port Harcourt (Rivers State) & South-South: Rates for a 12.5kg cylinder range from ₦14,800 to ₦15,500, benefiting from proximity to coastal offloading terminals.
• Enugu & South-East: Average prices for a 12.5kg cylinder range between ₦15,200 and ₦16,000, influenced by regional transportation logistics.
• Kano, Kaduna & North-West: 12.5kg refilling costs range between ₦15,800 and ₦16,500, reflecting extended haulage distance from maritime supply hubs.
• Maiduguri & North-East: Average retail prices for a 12.5kg cylinder sit between ₦16,000 and ₦16,800, with per-kilogram rates averaging ₦1,280 to ₦1,340.

Energy analysts attribute the ongoing market stabilization to sustained foreign exchange stability for domestic gas off-takers and increased direct supply commitments to domestic marketers, reducing price volatility previously linked to international LPG benchmarks.

Retail gas plant operators advise consumers to ensure proper valve inspections and patronize licensed refilling stations to prevent safety hazards associated with cylinder overfilling or substandard handling.
