The National Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NPRA) has reiterated that it is the sole authority responsible for announcing petroleum pump prices in Sierra Leone, in consultation with the Ministry of Trade and Industry and the Ministry of Finance.

In a statement to the public, the NPRA confirmed that the approved pump price remains NLe 32.00 per litre for both petrol and diesel nationwide.

The authority also assured citizens that there is an adequate supply of petroleum products across the country and urged all petroleum marketing companies and dealers to comply with the approved pricing.

“Any dealer found hoarding petroleum products or selling above the approved price will face the full penalties prescribed by law,” the NPRA warned.

The regulator emphasized its commitment to protecting consumers by ensuring a continuous and fairly priced supply of essential fuel products.
