Marketers give reasons for fresh fuel scarcity

Oil marketers in the country under the aegis of the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association, (PETROAN) have attributed the latest scarcity of petrol to the non-supply of the product by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).

The statement followed the return of queues in fuel stations across the country with some marketers selling a litre of petrol for as high as ₦1,000 at the weekend.

Some filling stations were however not selling the product as black market marketers were having a field day.
