The Nigerian National Petroleum corporation (NNPC) has assured motorists in Lagos of normalcy in petrol supply, as the ongoing curfew continues to relax within the state.
Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, Kennie Obateru, urged residents to desist from panic buying, explaining that the long queues currently being experienced were due to the curfew imposed in some states over the #EndSARS protests.
Mr. Obateru said that the curfew affected the free movement of vehicles for the supply of products, but assured normalcy in a couple of days.
“The disruptions and curtailment of free flow of vehicular movement occasioned by the #EndSARS protests, the attendant curfews, restrictions and vandalism affect the supply situation.
“Normalcy is expected to return to the petroleum products supply chain in the next couple of days.
“There is no need for panic buying, be rest assured that supply will soon return to the entire country,” he said.
