Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has explained why fuel scarcity resurfaced in Abuja and Lagos State.<\/div>\n

<\/ins><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

NNPCL said the tightness in fuel supply and distribution witnessed in some parts of Nigeria, particularly, Lagos and Abuja was not because fuel is not available.<\/p>\n

In a statement, on Saturday, by the Chief Corporate Communications Officer of NNPLC, Mr Olufemi Soneye, the national oil company said efforts are being made round the clock to ensure that the scarcity is resolved.<\/p>\n

Olufemi further said there were hitches in the discharge operations of a couple of vessels. While not giving the date when the scarcity would clear out of filling stations, Olufemi said normalcy would soon be restored.<\/p>\n

NNPCL advised Nigerians against panic buying, stating the fuel is available for customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NNPC Ltd. wishes to state that the tightness in fuel supply and distribution witnessed in some parts of Lagos and the FCT is as a result of a hitch in the discharge operations of a couple of vessels.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Company further states that it is working round the clock with all stakeholders to resolve the situation and restore normalcy in the operations<\/em>,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n
