Lagos: Fuel Scarcity Causes Gridlock From Queues

A litre of the product now sells for between N800-N1, 000 in some filling stations, a move that has resulted in an increase in the cost of transportation.

Fuel queues have resurfaced in several parts of Lagos as scarcity of petroleum hit Nigeria’s commercial centre.

Motorists were spotted in the queues that snaked into the streets in some areas of the state causing gridlock around filling stations.

Some filling stations are not selling the product while black marketers have taken advantage of the situation to do brisk business.

The situation is not limited to Lagos. Some states in the northern region have experienced persistent scarcity of the product.

Meanwhile, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) has deployed its officers to monitor traffic around filling stations.

LASTMA’s Director of Public Affairs and Enlightenment Department, Adebayo Taofiq quoted the agency’s general manager Olalekan Bakare-Oki as warning motorists against obstructing the flow of traffic.

He said the deployment became necessary due to reports of long queues at filling stations caused by motorists who park indiscriminately, thus blocking roads.

“We want our roads to be free-flowing; fuel queues should not become a burden for other road users in Lagos,” the LASTMA chief said.
