Lagos fuel scarcity: Expect normal supply from Saturday, says NNPCL

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd. (NNPCL) has attributed fuel scarcity being experienced in Lagos to a problem with one of its depots in the state.

It however said the issue had been resolved and normalcy would be restored today, Saturday April 6.

Chief Corporate Communications Officer of the NNPCL, Mr Olufemi Soneye, stated this in a statement late Friday.

He said the NNPC’s retail arm had resolved the issue, and that starting from April 6, normalcy would return to the affected areas.

He urged motorists in Lagos to refrain from panic buying of petrol.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports a resurgence of fuel queues in parts of Lagos as supply dropped.

Motorists across filling stations in various parts of the state, including Ikorodu Road, Bariga, Anthony, Maryland, Oyingbo and Ogba encountered long queues of vehicles.

Many filling stations were not open in areas such as Ikeja, Alausa, Oba Akran, Surulere and Victoria Island.
