NNPC Takes Delivery of Four Cargoes of Petroleum Products


The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) said it had taken delivery of four more cargoes of petroleum products over the weekend to keep the country wet.
This is contained in a statement signed by Mr Ohi Alegbe, NNPC Group General Manager, Group Public Affairs Division, on Sunday in Abuja.
 It assured the public of sufficient supply of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) across the country.
"The deliveries which amount to about 180 million litres is part of a new arrangement by the corporation to have a cargo of PMS delivered daily as from March," it said.
It added that the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, had warned depot owners against selling petrol above the approved ex-depot price of N77 per litre.
It said that the warning came against the background of repeated complaints by marketers of sharp practices at the depots.
It warned that depot owners found to be involved in selling products above the approved ex-depot prices would be severely sanctioned.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that there is sudden appearance of queues in some filling stations in the Federal Capital Territory.
Some of them are NNPC stations, AA Rano, Mobil and Conoil all located on the same express road.
