Petrol scarcity hits FCT as NARTO stops lifting products

Petrol scarcity hits FCT as NARTO stops lifting products

Fuel scarcity has hit the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) following the strike action embarked upon by members of the Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO). 

Last week, the association notified the Federal Government and the Major Energy Marketers Association of Nigeria of its plan to suspend operations over the high cost of operations. Most fuel stations in the FCT were shut due to the unavailability of petroleum products. The few Independent marketers who opened to customers dispensed the product for between N648 to N670 per litre.

The few Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) retail outlets that were opened sold the product for N617 per litre amid endless queues.
