  • Demand and Supply: The demand and supply of cooking gas in Nigeria fluctuate depending on the season, weather, availability, and accessibility of the product. During the rainy season, the demand for cooking gas may increase as people prefer to cook indoors, while the supply may decrease due to transportation challenges. Conversely, during the dry season, the demand for cooking gas may decrease as people opt for alternative fuels, while the supply may increase due to easier transportation.
  • Location: The price of cooking gas may also vary depending on the location of the filling station. For example, cooking gas may be cheaper in urban areas where there are more filling stations and competition, than in rural areas where there are fewer filling stations and higher transportation costs. Similarly, cooking gas may be cheaper in regions with more gas plants and pipelines than in regions with fewer such facilities.
  • Quality: The quality of cooking gas can affect its price. Some filling stations may sell adulterated or substandard cooking gas that may not last long or may pose safety risks. Therefore, it is advisable to buy cooking gas from reputable and certified filling stations that sell quality and genuine cooking gas.
