Fuel Scarcity Resurfaces In Lagos As Long Queues Emerge In Filling Stations

Fuel scarcity has been reported in Lagos State, as long queues emerged in some filling stations.

The scarcity was said to have caused gridlock in some parts of the state and a sudden hike in transport costs.

Residents of the state could be seen forming long lines at any fuel station selling the commodity. Fuel stations without products have remained shut for some days.

Hammed Fashola, National Vice Chairman of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, stated that he was aware of the queues at several filling stations in Lagos.

However, Fashola stated that the lineups could be due to panic buying on the part of customers.

“I am not in Lagos as we speak. But I heard about it too—that there are queues in Lagos. It may just be panic-buying. I am not sure there is fuel scarcity. People are just panicking. However, I will find out what the problem is,” Fashola said.
