This is as private vehicle owners have complained that long hours in petrol stations were impacting negatively on their productivity. “There was a particular day I was in queue for three hours, and at the end of the day, I had to call it quits in order for me not to have a mental breakdown.Esther Fakunade urged the agencies saddled with the responsibility of regulating the upstream and downstream supply of petroleum products to intervene in order to forestall unforeseen circumstances.
“Nigerians don’t really know what caused this round of fuel scarcity. Is it hoarding, festivities or just artificial scarcity because of the coming election? We don’t know, and nobody seems to be talking,” she said.
