Daredevil gunmen at the
weekend stormed a Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) mega filling
station along Jibia road in Katsina and dispensed fuel to motorists for free.
A
witness told Daily Trust that the robbers, who disguised as security agents,
had earlier asked for the manager purportedly to kidnap him.
However,
when they realised the manager wasn’t around, they gathered the attendants and
collected all the money they made for the day.
The
robbers, rather than fleeing the scene, our correspondent learnt, took over the
running of the station and began dispensing fuel for free to unsuspecting
motorists who came in to refuel.
The
witness said this lasted for close to fifteen minutes before they left.
All
efforts to get comments from the police were unsuccessful.
