Youths in Ogun State have appealed to President Bola Tinubu to lift the ban on the supply of petroleum products in filling stations located in communities
DAILY POST recalls that former President Muhammadu Buhari had in 2019 directed that there should be no supply of petroleum products in any filling stations within a 20-kilometre radius of the country’s land borders.
But, youths in Ipokia Local Government Area, a border community in Ogun State, are asking Tinubu to lift the ban immediately. The group charged the Federal Government to lift the ban as the subsidy on fuel had been removed, saying this would ease the hardship on the residents of Ogun border communities.
“It would interest you to know that only four fueling stations were approved to operate in Ipokia Local Government because of our continuous agitation and meetings with the necessary stakeholders. This is a LGA with a population of over 700,000 inhabitants.
