The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria have urged Abuja residents to desist from panic buying of fuel as there was enough products on ground.
IPMAN’s Public Relations Officer (PRO), Alhaji Suleiman Yakubu said this in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
Yakubu was reacting to the reappearance of queues at some fueling stations in the Federal Capital Territory and described the panic purchase and long queues as unnecessary.
“I advise Nigerians to stop panic buying, as we have enough Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), popularly known as petrol on ground.
