Fuel Scarcity, Power Shortage: Ambode Appeals To Lagosians by phensbassey(op): 12:01pm On Apr 06, 2016
Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos state
has appealed to Lagosians to bear with the
government over the lingering shortage of fuel
and power across the state.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, April 6,
by Steve Ayorinde, the Lagos state’s
commissioner for Information and Strategy,
Ambode said Lagos state consumes more than
40% of the fuel and energy needs of the country
and therefore appreciates that the impact of the
scarcity would be felt more in the state.
He urged residents to remain calm, orderly and
law-abiding as government is doing everything
possible within its power to find an immediate
solution to the crisis.
According to the statement, Governor Ambode
says he shares the pain and discomfort of
Lagosians and assures them that President
Muhammadu Buhari is deeply touched by the
situation and is working round the clock to
alleviate the suffering of the people.
The fuel scarcity which has been on for several
months has left many businesses grounded.
However, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, the minister of
state for Petroleum has stated that the fuel
scarcity would be over today, April 6, in Lagos
and Abuja, while other cities in the country like
Port Harcourt, Warri, Sokoto and Kano would
begin to experience improvement during the
weekend.
