Fuel scarcity continues to cause chaos in Nigeria, leading to soaring transportation fares and long queues at filling stations. Find out the reasons behind the persistence of this issue!
Fuel scarcity has been plaguing Nigeria, with reports of shortages and long queues at filling stations in Lagos, Ogun State, Abuja, and other parts of the country. Despite claims by the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), the situation seems to be worsening. Passengers and motorists are feeling the brunt of the crisis, facing increased transport fares and enduring long waits for fuel.
In Ilorin, commuters are lamenting the doubling of transport fares since the removal of the fuel subsidy. The scarcity has led to a spike in prices and added financial strain on passengers. Similar complaints are emerging in Ondo, where motorists and commuters are groaning under the weight of the fuel crisis.
The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (PMAN) has shed some light on the situation, attributing the scarcity to license renewal issues for fuel marketers. Additionally, the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) has warned against hoarding of fuel, emphasizing the need for transparency in the distribution process.
As the fuel scarcity persists, Senator Umar has announced that the Senate will intervene to address the crisis and review fuel policies. Expert Dan Mallam has highlighted the use of smaller vessels for transporting petroleum products into the country as a contributing factor. The situation remains dire, with no immediate resolution in sight.
