Today Monday 2nd November, 2015, The Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), Eket office, gave a strict warning to Fuel marketers that they have just 3 days to revert their inflated fuel prices to the normal N87 pump price or face sanctions.

Operations controller of the state's DRP, Mr Asuquo Antai, in an interview in Uyo, made it clear that there is absolutely no reason for the fuel hike in the state because, three Million liters of fuel was supplied to the state last month.

His exact words:

“From Thursday Nov. 5, no retail outlet should sell above government approved price of N87 per litre.

“Any filling station that sells above the price will be shut for three months and defaulters will have to pay fine before being reopened for business.

“Any retail outlet that cannot sell for N87 per litre should close because we are going to monitor them strictly to ensure compliance,” Antai said.

Antai went ahead to warn that anyone caught in the fuel price hike, will have the department to content with. He also expressed his disappointment with the fact that some major marketers including the NNPC, also divert the product allocated to them for higher gain.

So the earlier news was true.

God

Its not about the reverting of pricing that's important; but the availability of fuel in this fuel stations

Someone is going against the law and you are giving 3 days for him/her to desist. Isn't that madness.
