The decision, The Guardian learnt, was to protest the "illegal arrest" of some tankers and detention of two members of the association by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Speaking with The Guardian in a telephone interview, the executive secretary of PTD, Lagos zone Alhaji Tokunboh Korodo, confirmed that fuel lifting had been suspended, stressing that the members have resolved not to resume until the issue was resolved. He explained: "The alleged persons lifted fuel at Folawiyo Depot in Apapa late Wednesday night, because the company's officials were not around to issue waybills, the drivers had to find a parking space, pending when the document would be available. "They decided to move down to Ogere in Ogun State for a better parking lodge while the men of the Civil Defence accosted them and arrested the tankers with their motor boys for not having due documents to convey products. "Immediately we heard, we secured the waybill, which was taken to them so as to get them released, but the Civil Defence official was adamant and insisted on taking them to EFCC. Now the boys have been detained in the custody of EFCC, which has also insisted on conducting further investigations on the matter. "Irked by this, their colleagues have resolved to withdraw services until the issue is resolved. As I am talking to you, no single drop of fuel is being lifted by any tanker driver whatsoever."
