The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Biodun Oyebanji, has cautioned filling stations and marketers in the state against hoarding of petroleum product following President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s inaugural speech yesterday.

The Governor urges the marketers to await further directives on the implementation of the planned subsidy removal by the Federal Government and avoid actions that are capable of inflicting hardship on the citizens.

According to the Governor, heavy sanctions await any filing station or marketer found hoarding petroleum product or involved in arbitrary increase in prices of petroleum product in the state.

Meanwhile, Governor Oyebanji has invited the leadership of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG) to a meeting in his office by 4pm today.

The Governor urges the citizens of the state to go about their daily activities peacefully and avoid any rancorous situation.

Where are we going in this country

QuinModah:
Shut up.

The speech by the President caused the panic. The speech handlers goofed there

buygala:
Oga Governor should calm down

If they don't increase retail price of their present stock after Emilokan suddenly made an announcement that subsidy has been removed, how are they supposed to get funds to restock at the post-subsidy depot price which hasn't even been announced yet?

Abi Governor will submit his state allocation to the marketers for them to use to augment the difference in landing cost of PMS post-subsidy?
