This comes as the federal government in the final quarter of 2024-25 opted to abolish the Fifth Schedule of the Petroleum Development Levy through a presidential ordinance, removing the legal cap on the maximum levy that can be imposed on petroleum products.

Later in last month’s budget reveal for fiscal year 2025-26, it was revealed there was going to be a climate support levy on petroleum products. This has now been implemented.


  • Instead of imposing levy why don’t they give relief to those who reduce carbon footprint ? this is because it is all to increase revenue for their never ending unnecessary expenses.
