Fuel Queues: CSOs Confirm NNPC Has Enough Products, Praise Kyari's Swift Efforts to resolve it 

...Call for Patience while problems are addressed 

Group under aegis of Coalition for Civil Society Organisations, said it has confirmed the availability of products at  Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and called  for patience while the National  oil company address the problem.

Recalled that  on Thursday  many filling stations were closed in Abuja and  some other states on Wednesday as the scarcity of PMS caused heavy queues at the few outlets that dispensed the product.

But the Coalition of the CSOs in its reaction over the development,  said  it has confirmed availability  of products from the NNPCL management,which attributed the development to logistics issues, which have been resolved.  

The Coalition of Civil Society Organisations which disclosed this in a press statement made available to journalist in Kaduna said the fact that NNPC gave reasons of logistics problem as the major cause of the  queues, should  be enough to calm nerves over issue of panic buying.

The statement signed by Comrade Abdullahi Ibrahim Gimba, the CSOs appealed to motorists to avoid panic buying, because NNPCL as  sole importer of petrol had enough products, it commended the Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPCL, Mal Mele Kyari  for the swift  efforts to address  the problem and the measures  taken so far to revive the national oil company and resume full production . 

It however described as unfortunate ,the situation, where the black marketers capitalised on the glitch to exploit motorists and other residents that jostled to buy at prices ranging between N1000 and N1200 per litre.

While stating  that it is unhealthy that this happened when many Nigerians are anticipating a crash in prices of PMS, the Coalition frowned at  the idea of  increase in cost of the product  to an average of N700/litre at stations owned by independent marketers. 

The statement further reads: "We read the reaction of NNPCL  on  fuel scarcity problem via the Press Statement  issued by Chief Corporate Communications Officer, NNPC, Olufemi Soneye,who also confirmed  that the scarcity was due to issues around logistics that have been resolved. 

" We strongly  the clarifications made on the tightness in the supply of petrol currently being experienced in some areas across the country shouldn't stir up tension that will take us back to the days of recurring long queues at filling stations. 

" We are not unaware that the queues for petrol grew worse in Abuja and neighbouring Nasarawa and Niger states recently,but the good news according to NNPCL has now been resolved. 

" We are ready to draft our Monitoring  and evaluation unit to help the federal government to bring sanity to the oil sector."

BELLO EL-RUFAI THE BESPECTACLED PYGMY . By Comrade Musa Mohammed (Moonlight) It is disheartening, Bello El-Rufai, as a federal lawmaker, entrusted with representing the people, for resorting such behaviour, attempting to obstruct the lawful functions of the kaduna State House of Assembly. Your attempts Bello, intimidation, threats or your erratic and unruly actions will not stop the kaduna legislatives  to investigate financial dealings, loans, grants, and projects implementation from 2015-2023 in Kaduna State,  Bello El-Rufai, you should go ahead with your threat. A word is enough for you, your father, and family all, if you are wise. It is very unfortunate that your biological father, Nasir Ahmed El-Rufai is the worse thing that ever happened to Kaduna State. The man that plunged the state in deep fire but God pass the idiot.  Our greatest pain is that there were few people that never saw anything bad about all the nefarious activities of that satanic agent ...

Chaos in the Mines: Exposing the Irregularities at Nigeria's Mining Cadastre Office …The Chinese Connection: Unraveling Foreign Influence in Nigeria's Mining Sector By Steven Kefas (Kaduna, Nigeria), In the heart of Nigeria's capital, Abuja, stands an unassuming building that houses the Mining Cadastre Office (MCO), an agency under the Ministry of Solid Mineral Development. This office, tasked with issuing mining Titles and regulating mining activities across the nation, has recently become the center of controversy, threatening to undermine Nigeria's efforts to diversify its economy away from crude oil. For decades, calls to tap into Nigeria's vast mineral wealth have echoed through the corridors of power. The country boasts an abundance of resources including lithium, nickel, gold, tin, and limestone.
