As long queues for Premium Motor Spirit, popularly known as petrol return to Abuja, Lagos and other major cities, the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has advised Nigerians to stop panic buying fuel.
Alhaji Suleiman Yakubu, the National Public Relations Officer of IPMAN, gave the advice in an interview with newsmen on Sunday in Abuja.
Fielding questions on the long fuel queues in the country, Alhaji Yakubu decried the panic purchases and long queues witnessed in various filling stations across the nation’s capital, assuring that normal supply of petroleum products would soon be restored since loading have commenced at various deports.
“We want to assure the buyers that government and marketers are doing everything possible to ensure that the products are available in every filling station within a few days starting from today,” said the IPMAN spokesman.
