Fuel Scarcity

CSO has written Kyari and warned of nationwide protests over the lingering fuel scarcity across the country.

 

NewsOnline reports that the Network of Civil Societies for Economic Sustainability (NCSES) has warned the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited of massive nationwide protests because of the lingering petrol scarcity.

 

The organisation, in a letter, addressed to the Group Chief Executive Officer, NNPCL, Mele Kyari, noted that mass action was inevitable in the coming days if nothing was done to end the queues in filling stations.

The civil society made its position known in a letter signed by its Convener, Comrade Mohammed Shuaibu, and Co-covener, Comrade Nwogwugwu Bright.

 

In the letter, the group urged the NNPCL to clarify the position of things as regards petrol scarcity in the country and proffer urgent positive action towards addressing the problem.

 

Part of the letter reads: “Please consider this letter as an effort to promote stability, disabuse wrong perceptions, and restore hope and confidence in Nigerians, particularly the youths who labour in frustration to access petrol for their daily pursuit of a livelihood.

 

“We have received several letters from affiliate organisations, demanding protest and mass action due to the unavailability of Premium Motor Spirit {PMS} and the outrageous hike in the price. The arguments range from the inability of NNPC Ltd to make petrol available, diversion of products, racketeering, inability to control the price, and the failure to explain the reasons for the scarcity.

 

“We appreciate our place in nation-building as society gatekeepers, and we consider it a patriotic engagement to seek clarifications on the above complaints. Our deliberation and final consultations are ongoing, and we hope that before our final choice of date for action is made, your response would have reached us.

 

“We also wish to intimate you that Nigerians are suffocating under this problem and we fear that if we decide on any act of peaceful protest rally, it may become too explosive because of bottled-up frustrations. This is the reason we need clarifications and urgent positive action towards addressing the problem. As things stand today, a massive nationwide protest is inevitable in the approaching few days.

 

“Sir, as we await your timely response which is expected within Forty-Eight (48) hours, our cooperation and support are assured. Thank you for your understanding.”
