What this is: The total volume of Automotive Gas Oil (diesel) sold through licensed distributors and major consumer sectors — transport, power generation, and industry — each month, in million litres.

Why it matters: AGO consumption is a proxy indicator of Nigeria's electricity supply gap. High and growing diesel demand imposes a significant cost burden on businesses and households, reducing competitiveness.
