The recurrent fuel scarcity being witnessed in many parts of the country, particularly in Lagos and Abuja, continued yesterday, showing no signs of easing up, while respite seems not in sight for motorists and residents.
This was even as oil marketers disclosed that they have suspended the importation of Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, into the country due to the failure of the Federal Government to pay them their claims.
The source called on the Federal Government to....
pay the marketers the amount being owed, stating that out of the huge amount owed DAPPMA members only about N4 billion was paid to some of them a few days ago while others are yet to be paid.
The source further stated that majority of the oil marketers have stopped importing fuel, despite the fact that they have gotten the approval of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency, PPPRA, to import.
Drop a comment....thanks!
