The desire of Nigerians in many cities to buy petrol at N145 per litre may not
materialise anytime soon, an investigation has shown.
Findings by an undercover Premium Times reporter,
who posed as a potential oil marketer at several Lagos fuel depots, also
revealed that the lingering fuel scarcity may continue into the New Year.
Oil depots are where large quantities of
petroleum products are stored for onward lifting and distribution by marketers
to consumers.
Many of the depots, managed by major oil
marketers, did not sell fuel at the time of visit as they claimed they had no
stock.
Others who had the product sold at wholesale
prices far above the N133 quoted by the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation.
