Marketers: our depots empty
Scarcity persists in Ilorin, Abuja, Aba, others
Fuel marketers raised the alarm yesterday – depots are empty.
The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has promised to flood depots with petrol but the Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association (DAPPMA) said the corporation was yet to send petrol to its members’ depots.
The scarcity subsided yesterday in Lagos and Ibadan, with more filling stations selling petrol at the officials N145 per litre.
In Abuja, NNPC was battling hoarders, shutting down filling stations.
The situation was critical in Kaduna, Ilorin and many other cities.
DAPPMA’s Executive Secretary Olufemi Adewole, in a statement in Lagos, urged the NNPC to help the association so as to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians.
“Our members’ depots are empty. However, if the PPMC/NNPC can provide us with petrol, we are ready to do 24-hour loading to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians and for the fuel queues to be totally eliminated.
