The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd.) has attributed the current fuel supply tightness in some parts of Lagos and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja to a hitch in the discharge operations of a couple of vessels.
Mr. Olufemi Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer of the national oil company explained the situation in a statement on Saturday.
He, however, assured that the company was working round the clock with all stakeholders to resolve the situation and restore normalcy in the operations.
TheFact Daily reports that the fuel queues started building in some filling stations in FCT on Friday as motorists were seen engaging in panic buying.
