PPMC TACKLES FUEL SCARCITY IN ABUJA

The management of PPMC, In response to the current fuel scarcity situation, line with the honourable minister of state for petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu’s effort to provide an effective intervention, has flooded Abuja with 31 high capacity trucks; each with approximately 60,000 litres. Another 25 is expected tomorrow.

PPMC has deployed staff to petrol stations across Abuja for round-the-clock monitoring.

The 31intervention trucks that have arrived the city of Abuja have been deployed to areas of need. This is made possible by reason of the partnership between NNPC Retail and Capital Oil and Gas. In addition, 150 trucks have been provided by A. A. Rano, Azman, and Rahamaniyya. 

MD, PPMC Mrs. Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue, said these interventionist efforts will continue until the queues dissipate.

It is believed that with these measures, normalcy will return to Abuja and its environs in no time. Motorists are therefore advised for the umpteenth time not to engage in panic buying as this will encourage the activities of hoarders. They are also advised to be vigilant and to report any observed sharp practices and other identified areas of need.
