The ongoing strike embarked upon by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria be allowed to linger beyond Wednesday, most depots in Apapa, Lagos, will likely run out of fuel stock,
Following the commencement of the strike on Thursday, last week, loading at Apapa depots, where many marketers get petroleum products to other states, has been reduced due to the absence of workers of the Petroleum Equalization Fund (PEF) board.
The (pef) personnel usually certify marketers’ trucks to enable them to get bridging funds for fuel being transported to distant parts of the country. The federal government had said it would meet with the leadership of PENGASSAN on Monday in a bid to resolve the problem. It was gathered that marketers were only loading to Lagos and other south-west states that required no payment of bridging fund by the PEF.
