Queues have resurfaced in some petrol stations in Lagos

Weeks after another petrol crisis was averted as a result of a truce between the Federal Government and the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers (NUPENG), queues have surfaced in some petrol stations in Lagos.

In some stations, motorists were subjected to buying from one pump resulting in panic and anxiety.

Some motorists said they had to pay as much as N200 before they were attended at some filling stations.

When contacted, the Acting Group General Manager, Public Affairs of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Fidel Pepple said the corporation is studying the situation and will react in due course.

Meanwhile, the NUPENG president, Igwe Achese has attacked the federal government for failing to revamp the nation?s refineries adding that private depot and jetty owners are not importing products presently.
