许多尼日利亚人强烈要求汽油价格恢复到战前水平。\n\n寄希望于汽油价格大幅下跌的尼日利亚人可能还要再等一段时间,因为中东紧张局势再起,正逐渐抵消近期国际原油价格的跌幅。\n\n本周,在美国对伊朗港口重新实施海上封锁,且美国总统唐纳德·特朗普威胁对通过霍尔木兹海峡的船只征收20%的货运附加费之后,原油价格随之走高。他认为,美国作为海峡的守护者,理应获得补偿。不过数小时后,他便收回了这一强硬言论。\n\n作为国际原油价格基准的布伦特原油周三跳涨至每桶87美元,为6月以来的首次。美国西德克萨斯中质原油(WTI)也升至每桶80美元,同时股市大幅下跌。\n\n美国与伊朗之间再度紧张的关系,打乱了人们原本对油价逐步回归战前水平所带来缓解效果的期盼。\n\n此前,随着美国与伊朗在6月签署谅解备忘录(MoU)后原油价格下跌,各方越来越施压要求调整汽油零售价以反映这一变化。在尼日利亚,全球危机加剧了本已高企的能源成本和通货膨胀,因此降低油价的呼声极高。\n\n在华盛顿与德黑兰停火协议破裂的前一周,尼日利亚人一直在质疑,为什么40%的原油价格跌幅迟迟未能转化为更低的加油站零售价。许多尼日利亚人批评了供应本地消费半数以上汽油的Dangote炼油厂以及汽油进口商。联邦竞争和消费者保护委员会在一份官方声明中警告称,需防范放松管制下游市场中的剥削性定价及其他反竞争行为。

The renewed tension between the US and Iran is disrupting the relief many hoped the gradual return to pre-war oil prices would bring.
This comes amid growing pressure for the adjustment of petrol retail cost to reflect the decline in crude oil prices that followed the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in June between the US and Iran. In Nigeria, where the global crisis had compounded existing high energy costs and inflation, demand for a petrol price cut was high.
The week before the breakdown of the ceasefire between Washington and Tehran, Nigerians had been questioning why the 40 per cent crude oil price decline had yet to translate to lower pump prices. Many Nigerians criticised the Dangote refinery, which supplies over half of locally consumed petrol, and petrol importers.
