AGAIN, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, has enjoined motorists in Abuja, its environs and other parts of the country not to engage in any panic buying of petroleum products.

A statement by the NNPC made available to Realnews today assured motorists that the corporation has robust stock of petrol, which is sufficient to serve the nation for more than 30 days.

This plea comes on the heels of queues noticeable in some fuel stations, especially in Abuja.

“Motorists are advised to report any marketer selling above N145 per litre of petrol or hoarding the products to the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) which is statutorily empowered to deal with such issues.,” it said.

DPR has offices located in all parts of the country.

According to NNPC, Law enforcement agencies would mete out appropriate sanctions to operators of fuel stations who engage in hoarding or sell products above the recommended band.
