                                            The ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel has led to a sharp increase in the price of petrol in Nigeria with predictions of further hikes in the near future. The tension between the two countries has caused disruptions in the global oil market leading to a rise in the cost of crude oil. This in turn has resulted in higher prices for petrol in Nigeria which heavily relies on imported fuel. Experts warn that if the conflict escalates the price of petrol could reach an all-time high of N1000 per liter causing significant economic strain for the country and its citizens.
