Oil marketers and depot owners said on Sunday
that consumers might have to endure inadequate supply of the product till May.
-
This is contrary to the pledge by the Minister
of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu that lingering fuel scarcity
in the country would end on or before Thursday, April 7.
-
The Minister had initially given May as the most
likely date for the fuel scarcity to abate but was forced to recant following
criticisms from different segments of the country.
-
A source among the Marketers told the PUNCH
correspondents that the situation on the ground did not give any hope that
petrol would be available at filling stations this month.
