Why Fuel Scarcity May Persist —NUPENG / Killings Continue In Mile 12 Hausa-Yoruba Clash / Fuel Scarcity May Persist Beyond May 29 – Major Marketers (2) (3) (4)

A top official of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency has said that the fuel scarcity being experienced in various states across Nigeria would continue till the first quarter of 2013 “if something urgent is not done.” The official, in an interview, Monday, with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja, said the scarcity would continue “because the demand for the product has over-shot supply.” A PREMIUM TIMES survey showed how marketers were taking advantage of the fuel scarcity to fleece Nigerians of billions of naira by selling petrol above the subsidized pump price in many states, while inefficient government agencies looked away or gave excuses. The official, who did not want his name disclosed, therefore, called for the total deregulation of the downstream sector as a way out of the lingering fuel scarcity sweeping across the country. He said a multi-phased deregulation process was the only way out of the scarcity. “I think the full deregulation of the downstream sector will be the way out of the lingering fuel crises we are experiencing,” the official said. The official, who decried the lingering scarcity, called for adequate enlightenment and the provision of cushioning measures before the total removal of subsidy. He said the delay in the payment of subsidy arrears to most marketers contributes immensely to the current scarcity as only the NNPC is currently importing the product. He said that for the deregulation process to be effective there was a need to resuscitate the country’s refineries, build adequate fuel reserves, tank farms, and functional pipeline network. Marketers want full deregulation The Executive Secretary, Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria, Obafemi Olawore, said the full deregulation of the downstream sector would bring about efficiency in the sector and signal an end to the perennial fuel crises. He explained that most oil marketers stopped the importation of the product since the beginning of the year due to what they described as “discrepancies in subsidy payment” which they said is responsible for the current scarcity. The Chairman, Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association of Nigeria, Dapo Abiodun, also called for the deregulation of the sector as a way of sanitising it.

The Aig committee did not black list all the importers, so why is the NNPC the one doing all the importation? Was it not because NNPC proved to be inefficient that was why private importers were licensed? Are all the refineries now in comatose? Why is DPR not doing its role of monitoring and sealing up gas stations who sell above the right price? Government is trying to frustrate Nigerians into accepting the full deregulation of the downstream sector even when they are yet to provide palliatives 1 Like |

ARES: Ode! It is not GEJ's duty to put people in jail. His duty is to arrest, investigate and prosecute people for corruption. He is not the one to judge them. The judges and the courts do. GEJ is not a judge. He has shown the political will to fight corruption by going against the oil cabal and charging them to court. We must now focus our attention on our judges to ensure that those charged eventually end up in jail like Bode George |

Would deregulation increase supply of petroleum? If this will be the solution then we should for it but i doubt is the way out. |

mrrock: As long as Jonathan is serious in fighting the cabals and puting them in jail for subsidy fraud Nigerians are ready to tolerate the scarcity. fools they got ... you fools where they want you.... fools. So, the Nigerian government is now powerless. Therefore cannot protect the social rights of its citizens. Is Nigerian under foreign attack, have our military been overpowered ? Ask yourself simple questions. The truth is that we southerners do not have shame, we are greedy and heartless. And, it always works when we say the hausa man is the enemy. Fools... is it not the hausa man that made fuel N64 and eliminated the boko haram leader.... now a southerner comes and gives you flimsy reason's for his wickedness and your happy. Jonathan has sold us out... e don tey. Before any southerner rules this country again... thier will be war and we all know. Simple opportuinity to proove the south has political intelligence and this is what happens..... Everytime "my enemies" - does Obama have no enemies , do you see him calling red necks or jews or africans the problem. The guy stands up and fights for his reputation, which inturn means for the betterment of the Americans. Fools....... |

This where i dont understand Nigeria and Nigerians.NNPC is a player in both the upstream and downstream sector and not a regulator.Your post says NNPC official and your write-up says PPRA.NNPC is different from PPRA and vice versa.so if you want to blame anyone about fuel availability it is PPRA and DPR and not NNPC.As per the PPRA official,if its ever true,he is on his own,the problems are being tackled.it easy for you guys to stay on your sytem and write all sort of rubish about why and what is the cause of fuel scarcity.people are working their life away under very terrible condition to make sure these things are sorted out.life are been lost on a daily basis to vandals and briefcase middle men by this same NNPC that Nigerians think are not doing anything.problem they this country,what is on ground is more than NNPC we are need to fight it together. |

The price we pay daily to get PMS is more than a natural price we could pay if there is no subsidy and guess what ? There will be no scarcity. Subsidy should go, so that marketers can import with their funds and sell freely for profit. The competition will drive down prices. |

ANALIST: this is the most intelligent rubbish i have read on nairaland. so jonathan arrest, investigate and prosecute? chai. i will faint on this forum one day. and the author of this thing has the gut to call another person ode. na waa. pls go back to school. make sure u listen to news everyday of ur life. in nigeria, we have no courts, no judges as jonathan's decision is final. what we run here is a one man govt. do u know ribadu and el rufai? both of them were facing multiple charges until jonathan told the courts and police to drop all charges and pay ribadu every money he wants. this fuel scarcity is artificial and will continue until jonathan finally arrive at his N141 price tag. he has nothing to offer and he must hit his target with the N141 and nigerians are just waiting for him so the january in question is the one year anniversary of the last increment. |

Look at this world class brain damaged m0ron, opening his pie hole, spitting the most irritating, zero thinking talk, Ur line of reasoning shows that you are a paid campaigner who will even fvck his own mother if the cash is right. Things are going blatantly wrong before our very eyes and ur retarded brain is telling u that GEJ's role is to arrest, prosecute,investigate but not put in jail? Nigga u are dumb. I guess after the investigation, he gives them awards,warns them to desist from evil and all their sins are forgiven. You opened your cow mouth to mention bode george, 2 yrs in vip jail after stealing 87 billion, and u are here sucking gej's diick! Nigga pull your tounge out of GEJ's asss before u start eating shiit! Literally |

If I were president, I would: 1. Fire the Minister for petroleum  2. Fire NNPC GM 3. Advertise these positions, bidders for the two posts would have to outline a clear and timed plan to getting Nigerian refineries to at least 70% capacity within the next 1 year. Corruption will not allow our leaders do this, its a shame. Scarcity in the midst of plenty!!!! Enough of this nonsense Why is there no dislike button on NL  |
