NNPC Apologizes to Nigerians Over Fuel Scarcity

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on
Wednesday apologized to Nigerians over the fuel scarcity
situation in the country.
According to Vanguard, the organisation also revealed
that it has entered into a partnership with security
agencies in the country to assist in the monitoring of fuel
supply across the country.
A representative from NNPC told newsmen, “We must all
make sure that petroleum products get across to
Nigerians at the regulated price especially as the yuletide
season approaches. We have enough products and we
want to plead with the Petroleum Tanker Drivers (PTDs)
not to be involved in the diversion of petroleum products
in order to avoid causing untold hardship to motorists.”
Managing Director of the Pipelines and Products
Marketing Company, Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue also revealed,
“We have invited the EFCC and DSS to join us in this
campaign of monitoring the movement of petroleum
products and they have our mandate to sanction any
errant marketer. Enough is enough.”
