BY NKECHI NAECHE-ESEZOBOR–Despite fuel queues across the country, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) on Thursday confirmed two billion liters stock of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS).
The corporate in a statement signed by Mr Adeyemi Adetunji, Executive Vice President, Downstream and made available to BusinessToday Online attributed the long queues in Lagos to ongoing road infrastructure projects around Apapa and access road in the state.
He said programmed vessels and trucks to unconstrained depots while massive loadouts from depots to states are closely monitored to ease fuel queues.
“The gridlock is easing out and NNPC Ltd has programmed vessels and trucks to unconstrained depots and massive loadouts from depots to states are closely monitored.”
“We want to reassure Nigerians that NNPC has sufficient products and we significantly increased products loading in selected depots and extended hours at strategic stations to ensure sufficiency nationwide. “We are also working with industry stakeholders to ensure normalcy is returned as soon as possible,” he said.
