DPR offers free petrol to motorists in Mowe Ogun State

Motorists jubilated on Monday at Mani Petrol Station, Mowe, Ogun State as the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), turned Santa Claus and offered them free petrol.

The free fuel by the DPR was the result of a sanction imposed on the owner of the station, who had ignored an earlier warning to dispense fuel at the regulated price of N145.

News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports that Head of Operations, DPR office in the state, Kasali Akinade, had earlier visited the station to warn the owner to start selling at the approved pump price.

NAN also reports that DPR officials had to return to sanction the owner because he refused to comply with their earlier directive.

Kasali said it had become imperative for him to make a “scapegoat” out of the station, so as to serve as a deterrent to others around the area.

He wondered why people would want to make life difficult for fellow citizens, saying the department has zero tolerance for such act of indiscipline.

“We got a tip-off that they are hoarding and selling at N220 per litre. We came here and instructed him to start selling at the approved pump price and forgave him for what he did.

“But as soon as we left his station, he reverted back to the old price and even stopped selling. We had to turn back and make a scapegoat out of him.

“This will serve as a deterrent to others because we treated him as a gentleman at first, but he decided to sabotage the efforts of the federal government,” he said.

He advised other marketers to quit short-changing the public, saying if they have any grievances, they should channel it to the appropriate quarters rather than taking it out on the masses.

Some customers who spoke with NAN expressed their joy at the DPR’s intervention, saying they needed such acts while also advising proper monitoring on the part of the authorities.

NAN reports that other stations visited that were hitherto not selling were made to start selling just as those who were selling above pump price were made to revert to the normal price of N145 per litre.

This is a misplaced priority.

An African adage says that a man whose house is in fire does not chase mouse.

DPR has failed in its primary duty of regulating the activities and prices of fuel.

DPR was not set up to share fuel.

only a handful of Ogun people will benefit from while others will only here the story and yet continue in their suffering.

If the story is true DPR seems to have brainless officers
How could anyone act in that manner?
You have the right to seal off the station not to dispense. angry
I hope the military style of governance won't be adopted to follow through 2019 elections? angry

See gobe

I dunno much about the rules regarding that, but I felt the seal order should be enough punishment....at least that delays sales for more than a month

But now one loses money based on government wahala....how do they recover from that kind of loss

It is true that this governmemt is clueless and lacks ideas. It is true that we are suffering today because of our leaders but we the ordinary Nigerians are also guilty. At every corner we want to cheat ourselves and make more money. You have fuel but you have refused to sell at the normal price just to make more money. Your fellow Nigerian is suffering but you look him in the face and still decide to make more profit. Why are we just wicked? Not just fuel stations but anytime there's just a small crowd the transport fare increases.
Any festivity price of commodities sky rocket

I remember one evening the crowd at Oshodi was just much the conductor seeing this, decided that from Oshodi to Ilasa was #300 (infact every bus stop was #300)

We blame government and our politicians but the truth is that we are no different from them. If anything, we are worse

Clueless Government and action, will dpr stay in the station forever?No, when they leave the owner will go back to his normal price and business continues, they would not even stay and sell up to a thousand litre of fuel instead of flooding every filling station with fuel they are behaving otherwise
