NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Nigerians across the country are groaning as the cost of Premium Motor Spirit (Petrol) has hit over N1000 per liter in many parts of the country.
This Nigeria news platform went round the nation’s Capital and gathered that only a few filling stations were dispensing fuel with long queues.
Only NNPCL and a few other retail outlets were seen dispensing fuel at N617 per litre along Kubwa Expressway. RainOil in Gwarimpa sold at N720 per litre.
In Nasarawa, Niger and Kogi states, the product was sold for between N850 to N1,100 per liter on Monday.
Delta, Bayelsa, Cross Rivers, Imo, Enugu and Abia state residents got petrol between N870 to N1000 per liter.
“Presently, the products are not available as they should be. The products are not sufficiently available because some marketers are still waiting for the supply.
“We are waiting for a response from Dangote Refinery on PMS loading. For now, we have not gotten any written documents.
“If the directive comes, we will direct our marketers to go there for Petrol”, Maigandi told DAILY POST.
As a solution, the leader of IPMAN said, “The government should fast-track the CNG program to provide a better alternative for Nigerians.”
