Fuel queues resurface in Abuja

Long queues have resurfaced at filling stations across Abuja, Nigeria’s capital city, as motorists struggle to purchase petrol.

The queues surfaced Thursday morning and remained through Friday, as traffic gridlocks appeared across major parts of the city.

The immediate cause of the latest queues remains unknown as filling stations in Lugbe, the Central Business District, Wuse, Kubwa, and Jabi areas of the city sold petrol at prices ranging between N660 and N700.
