The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) says it is discharging five vessels of petroleum products, to stop the long queues that have persisted at fuel service stations.



Also, the private operators are importing and discharging at least 120 million litres of petrol across Nigeria to put an end to the scarcity of petrol.

The Group Executive Director of the NNPC Mallam Bello Rabiu, on Wednesday briefed reporters about what the corporation was doing to end the petrol crisis.

According to him, about 1,500 trucks would soon be deployed every day to saturate the market in a very short time.

The Group General Manager Public Affairs of the NNPC was also at the briefing with the Executive Directors Upstream and Downstream.

The disclosure is coming on a day the Nigerian Senate called for an investigation into the operations of the NNPC’s Joint Venture Cash Calls Obligations.

The upper legislative arm of government had said it would begin investigations into the operations of the NNPC after Senator Bassy Akpan drew the attention of the Senate to what he called the inability of the corporation to meet this obligation.

Nigerians are still wasting man hours waiting to buy petrol, even after apologies and promises to end the crisis in weeks or is it in months.

The NNPC also gave clarification over forex for independent importers who want to bring in petrol.

Beyond the press conferences and investigations, Nigerians look forward to the day NNPC will fulfil its promise of ensuring sustainable import, making sure that the refineries work and that pipelines are secure.
