Motorists Groan As Fuel Scarcity Worsens by Nobody: 1:29pm On Feb 29, 2016
The latest round of fuel scarcity being witnessed in many states across the country worsened on Sunday as motorists and other users of petrol had difficulties getting the product at filling stations.

One of our correspondents also gathered that private depots in Apapa, Lagos were selling the product above the ex-depot price of N76.50 per litre.

This was said to have prevented some dealers from buying the product.
n Lagos, for instance, there were long queues at some filling stations on the Ikorodu Road, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Gbadaga Expressway and Apapa-Oshodi Expressway.

Marketers and industry stakeholders, who spoke with our correspondents, said the supply of petrol by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation had dropped.

Motorists also lamented that they had to spend many hours in queues for fuel even as others complained of having to empty their pockets to buy sufficient petrol to last for many days.

The NNPC had recently increased its direct petrol imports to more than 70 per cent of the country’s needs, leaving the private marketers with the balance.
“For some days last week, the NNPC has been rationing fuel at the Mosimi and Ejigbo depots. And the only few private depots that are loading petrol at Apapa are not selling at the controlled price, and most of the dealers cannot buy because of the enforcement of selling the product at the controlled price.”
