Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd. has assured Nigerians that the ongoing fuel scarcity and queues will be over by Wednesday, May 1, 2024.
According to Mr Soneye, the company currently has an availability of products exceeding 1.5 billion litres, which can last for at least 30 days.
“Unfortunately, we experienced a three-day disruption in distribution due to logistical issues, which has since been resolved. However, as you know, overcoming such disruptions typically requires double the amount of time to return to normal operations,” he said.
He added that some folks were taking advantage of the situation to maximise profits.
“Thankfully, product scarcity has been minimal lately, but these folks might be exploiting the situation for unwarranted gain. The lines will be cleared out between today and tomorrow,” Mr Soneye assured.
