The shortage of premium motor spirit (PMS) continues to grip Nigeria, exacerbating the challenges faced by citizens across the country. Despite assurances from the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) regarding the resolution of issues causing the scarcity, the situation persists, with many filling stations remaining closed and others facing long queues of frustrated motorists.
Reports from various states, including Lagos, Kano, and Ondo, reveal the extent of the crisis, with black market prices reaching exorbitant levels of up to N1,200 per litre in some areas. This has led to increased transportation challenges, leaving commuters stranded and resorting to alternative modes of travel.
Meanwhile, petrol station owners attribute the price hikes to product unavailability, further compounding the woes of citizens already grappling with the fuel crisis. As citizens endure the ordeal, concerns mount over the economic impact and the effectiveness of measures to alleviate the situation.
