This comes just as the NNPCL management admitted that it was facing a debt challenge to the tune of $6 billion from its supply chain abroad.
While the prices have varied since the removal of the subsidy by the Nigerian government, NNPCL had retained its fuel price at N617 per litre.
A statement by its Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye, subtly confirmed that the debt was the cause of fuel queues springing up at filling stations across the country, lamenting that it is impacting supply sustainability.
