Fuel Queues Continue In Abuja Despite NNPC’s Denial Of Fuel Price Increase


Long queues of vehicle have resurfaced at filling stations in
Abuja following a widespread rumor of an impending increase in
the pump price of fuel.
Reporting from the nation’s capital, our correspondent
observed that at least one filling station, Con Oil, ran out of
fuel and was forced to close the station.
At the Total filling station in the Central Business District,
the queue extended towards the National Bureau of Statistics
(NBS) building.
Queues were noticed in other stations in the city while black
marketers went to the streets to sell their product.

The sudden rush to purchase fuel ahead of Christmas and New
Year celebrations was prompted by a rumor that the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) would soon increase the
pump price of petroleum.
However, the NNPC debunked the rumor and assured Nigerians
that it has no plans to increase prices both at the pump and
ex-depot level.
