Long queues return to Lagos petrol stations

Residents of Lagos woke up on Monday morning to behold long queues of vehicles at the various petrol stations in the metropolis.

Nigerian Tribune investigation revealed that over 70 per cent of petrol stations in Lagos have no fuel.

In Oregun, Alausa and Ikeja, only one petrol station was seen selling fuel while others, over 20 of them including the NNPC owned petrol station, on the Kudirat Abiola way, were not selling fuel as of the time of filing this report.

The rumour making the round is that oil marketers were no longer importing fuel hence the shortage of the commodity.

All attempts to get to the root cause of issue, however, proved abortive as nobody had an answer to the question about the fuel shortage.
