After some days of respite, fuel scarcity worsened in different parts of the country on Saturday.
Reports by our correspondents from
different states indicated that many petrol stations were still not
selling fuel, while others had long queues of vehicles.
Black marketeers were seen hawking fuel on the streets in some major towns and state capitals.
In Lagos, our correspondent observed
that queues had reappeared at some petrol stations, while some that had
dispensed fuel earlier in the week were shut on Saturday.
In Ilorin, Kwara State capital, the fuel scarcity had also worsened.
Our correspondent, who visited some
petrol stations in Ilorin, observed that they were not selling the
product to their customers.
