NOA blames marketers over fuel scarcity

Published by

THE Director-General, National Orientation Agency (NOA), Dr. Garba Abari, has condemned the lingering scarcity of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) across the country, describing it as a ploy by conscienceless and unpatriotic marketers to force government to increase the pump price of the products.

Reacting to the unabating long fuel queues despite increased supplies by the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Abari said petroleum marketers had resorted to deliberate hoarding in order to subject Nigerians to unwarranted hardship during this yuletide, describing the practice as very unpatriotic.

The NOA boss called on all well-meaning Nigerians to join in condemning the hoarding of PMS by marketers, insisting that the last thing Nigerians need after exiting a biting economic recession is to be hurt by a crippling artificial fuel scarcity.
