Reports say that there are widespread petrol queues in Abuja and parts of Niger and Nasarawa states currently. Hundreds of black marketers who sell petrol in jerrycans are also currently in business in some of the affected locations.
Many fillings stations were shut to motorists on Monday morning, while the few ones dispensing the commodity were flooded with motorists and other petrol seekers. The only retail outlet of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation on the Kubwa-Zuba Expressway that dispensed petrol on Monday morning was jam-packed with motorists. Some of the other filling stations on that road and in various locations in Abuja and neighbouring states were not selling petrol. Attendants in some of the outlets revealed that the threat by Petrol Tanker Drivers to embark on strike triggered the scarcity in the affected areas.
