NNPCL Speaks On Rationing Petrol To Depots, Directing Operators To Prioritise Supply To Abuja

Following the rumours that the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) is rationing fuel supply to depots and directing them to Abuja as reasons for the long queues at the fuel stations within the South West states, the company has denied a claims and set the records straight.

Some marketers and NNPCL officials had claimed that the national oil company was rationing petrol supply and prioritising supply to Abuja, thereby causing scarcity in the South-West

They added that hundreds of trucks loaded on Saturday were sent to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) based on the NNPCL directive.

According to a Punch report over the weekend, the spokesperson for the NNPC, Olufemi Soneye stated that the claim was totally false.

Soneye stated that if there are disruptions in fuel distribution for three days, it usually takes twice that time to return to normal.

The NNPC spokesman, however, noted that the national oil company has petroleum products available in large quantities. In his words, “Completely false. That is false information. Is he (the dealer) tracking every truck to determine their destinations? If there are disruptions in fuel distribution for two-three days, it usually takes twice that time to return to normal. The situation should improve soon. One important point to note is that we have product availability.

“If they are familiar with the industry, they should be aware of this. Products need to be delivered to the states". He stated.
