Abstract:

In this study, we provide valuable insights into how the removal of fuel subsidy contributed to headline inflation in Nigeria from 2023 to February 2025. This is based on the premise that high prices of premium motor spirit (PMS), associated with the subsidy removal, tend to increase the costs of transportation, food, and production. Thus, we employ exploratory analysis, a least squares estimation, and Granger causality tests to quantify the contributions of PMS, household kerosene, and automotive gas oil (AGO) prices to headline inflation using time series data from the National Bureau of Sta

Abstract:

The Nigerian populace’s anxieties, pessimism, and optimism over removing fuel subsidies have broughteconomic tension. The conflicting views are centered on the overbearing effect of subsidy removal on the costof living and the commodity market. The federal government has hinged the decision on the excessive revenueleakages due to the huge subsidy and the need to re-channel the subsidy fund to more developmental projectsimpacting the Nigerian economy’s growth.

Crude Oil is the main source of revenue in Nigeria. The revenue the country generates from oil annually is enough to feed its citizens, but the reverse is the case. There is poverty in the mix of plenty in Nigeria. Over time, policies have been made to improve the economy of the country, including but not limited to the removal of subsidies on fuel. The government removes subsidies on fuel, claiming to use the funds generated from it and establish long-term goal projects that will create employment opportunities for the citizens. It is consequent upon this that the study is carried out to inve
