There is a gradual return of fuel crisis in the country, as long queues are beginning to appear at filling stations in some major cities across the country.
Despite assurances by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) that all will be well soon, operators are skeptical that the fuel scarcity may hit harder, Premium Times reports.
Report has it that the stock of petroleum products at NNPC facilities across the country was grossly insufficient, with supply from local refineries incapable of supporting imports.
One of the marketers, who spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised to speak on the issue, said feelers from the Pipelines and Products Marketing Company (PPMC), were that the stock of products at the depots was terribly low.
He noted that the NNPC depots at Mosimi and Ejigbo in Lagos as well as in Ibadan were currently facing acute shortage of products.
