Politics / Oil Marketers Defy FG Orders. Sell Fuel Higher Than N86.50. by MindTwister: 7:49am On Jan 02, 2016 |
Many filling stations across the country on Friday shunned the Federal Government’s directive on the new pump price for petrol as they continued to sell the product at either the old regulated price of N87 per litre or above it. The Petroleum Product Pricing Regulatory Agency on Tuesday announced that retail filling stations belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation would from Friday, January 1, 2016, sell petrol at N86 per litre, while other oil marketers would sell the product at N86.5 per litre. While majority of the filling stations around Ojodu in Lagos State were not selling fuel, the Conoil located around Toll Gate on the Lagos – Ibadan Expressway was selling petrol for N87 per litre, with a relatively long queue. Also, at an NNPC mega station in Ikeja, Lagos State, petrol was sold for N87 despite the Federal Government’s directive. An official of the station, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said he was awaiting a new directive from the President in 2016 before selling at the stipulated N86 per litre. He said, “We are still selling at N87 here. I have not heard anything from the President this year, asking, “Have you heard from him?” In major cities in Ogun State, one of our correspondents observed that many filling stations were selling a litre of petrol for between N100 and N130. In Abeokuta, the state capital, major marketers like Conoil, Total and Forte were not opened to customers because they claimed that they did not have stock. But an NNPC mega station on Abiola Way in the state capital sold petrol for N86 per litre. But other independent marketers who were dispensing the product sold to motorists and other buyers at between N100 and N130 per litre. At Ebenfem filling station at Ita Eko, Abeokuta, motorists bought petrol for N120 per litre. The same scenario obtained at Supreme Petrol Station just after the Mechanic Village along Abeokuta-Lagos Expressway as a litre of petrol was sold at N110. In Sango-Ota axis, independent marketers dispensed a litre of petrol for between N100 and N130. At NNPC franchise filling stations at Oju Ore and Koro Otun respectively, they dispensed a litre of petrol for N100 and N120 respectively. At EMIMP filling station and Oando filling station along Sango-Idiroko Road, they sold a litre for N100 and N130 respectively. However, MRS filling stations in Abeokuta and Sagamu still sold the product for N87 per litre. In Osun State, marketers have yet to comply with the directive. In Osogbo, the state capital, one of our correspondents observed that petrol was not available for sale in most filling stations in the city as some fuel attendants said they could not adjust to the new price because they bought at higher price from the private depots. A former Treasurer, Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Western Zone, Mr. Shina Amoo, when contacted by one of our correspondents, said independent marketers could not comply with the directive on petrol price because they bought far higher than the approved price. He said, “I bought at N102 per litre yesterday (Thursday) and later I bought at N94.5 per litre. So you don’t expect anybody who bought at those prices to sell a litre for N86, it is not possible. “The price will continue to come down as the supply increases. The government will not need to force anybody to reduce the price; the forces of demand and supply will determine the price.” For more, see link below: http://www.punchng.com/marketers-defy-buhari-sell-petrol-above-n86-5/ |

I read the supposed article and while it is important to highlight the objection if the professor, I sense that the truths espoused therein forms strong basis for thinking that the article mirrors the thinking of someone within the hierarchy of the APC. Check the statements of facts in the interview and it becomes fishy that something is amiss somewhere. Was someone somewhere threatened? Will the truth about this interview be know in the future if this isn't? Buhari needs to close the gap between his supporters and the PDPs. As a national leader he should heal, and while not condoning the excesses perpetrated by the PDP he should know that many are just waiting for him to fail - the intentions of the authors of that article. He must embrace all now before it is too late like a father with delinquent children. We are the better for it. I am the MindTwister and I just wanna produce sense. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

A government must have a blueprint from whence it operates. It is not enough to administer serious units of our life wire via deadlines. Serious governments run as a system of interdependent parts and the reductionist approach taken by this APC led administration is only fit for governments in the 1920s/30s where everything worked mechanically. How can you draw efficiency from providing cut off dates? Efficiency is built within the core of a unit, the core of a system, and the reason why this strategy will fail is because, rather than deal with the core issues of inefficient management and probably dead wood facilities, we are encouraging cosmetic interventions designed to retain jobs and to give a semblance of things working. 2015, the year of the great deception is over. We agree that we have been mugged electorally. Can we allow 2016 to be different a bit please? No drama, no pictures, no international trips, no media trials just work, work, work. After that Buhari our man can get a boo...coz even his boo.... 54 Likes 8 Shares |
