EFFECTS OF UNIFORM PRICING POLICY ON THE MARKETING OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS

The Nigerian National petroleum Corporation (NNPC) was formed in 1977 to put government into the front seat in the oil industry. Since then, the government cased to a mere regulatory agency. Through the NNPC the government went into exploration, drilling and marketing of petroleum product in Nigeria, which brought unwholesome activities. My aim of carrying out this research is to identify the impacts of uniform pricing of petroleum products by examining: - The trend of petroleum product pricing in Nigeria. - The factors influencing petroleum products - The effects of uniform prices for petroleum, products. - Suggesting ways of ensuring efficient pricing of petroleum products prices, and also the responsibilities of the NNPC this issue. My studying of this also will focus on uniform pricing of petroleum products, and its implications in Nigerian economy. This stall be done by considering constraints that will be encountered as I study.
