Easter: DPR Cautions Against Panic Buying Of Petroleum Products by AutoReportNG: 2:32pm On Apr 18, 2019 |
The Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) Field Office in Enugu says petroleum marketers who sell products above government-approved prices risk having their stations sealed. The DPR also warned members of the public against panic buying during the Easter celebration. Mr Anthony Douji, the Head, Retail Outlet and Marketing in the field office, gave the advice on Thursday in Enugu in an interview with journalists. Douji said that the DPR would ensure that petroleum marketers complied with the directive of the NNPC to make products available for Easter celebration. The Group Managing Director of the NNPC, Mr Maikanti Baru, has assured the public of adequate supply of petroleum products during the Easter. Baru gave the assurance during the just concluded Enugu International Trade Fair, adding that no fewer than 55 depots across the country were fully stocked with products. He said that the NNPC had made necessary arrangements to berth two vessels of 50 million litres of petrol daily to make the Easter holidays pleasurable. Baru cautioned depot owners or terminal operators against selling petrol above the official ex-depot price, adding that the price of petrol in the country remained N145 per litre. Douji said that the office had started monitoring compliance, adding that petrol stations must not sell above the regulated price. He said that the intention was to ensure product availability during the festivity. “We observed that while some petrol stations are selling at the regulated price, others sold above it. However, we prevailed on them to revert and they did. “Our intention is to ensure that the products are available and not to create tension and artificial scarcity by sealing petrol stations that are defaulting. “By the time you start sealing petrol stations, some of the marketers will start diverting products to areas where they will not be monitored. “So, the best way is to encourage them to revert to government-approved prices,” he said. Douji, however, warned that the DPR would not hesitate to seal stations that failed to revert to the regulated price after initial contact. “We have been receiving calls from members of the public about petrol stations selling above the regulated price and we shall seal such stations should they fail to revert,” he said. Doujied called on residents to further provide them with the necessary information that would lead to clamping down of defaulters. He said that the field office could be reached through 09055992144, 08113936388 and 08160833869 for complaints.

DPR, I use to think they have best practice in their management process until this last employment or should I say the ongoing employment were we heard they abandoned those that passed their interview on merit list to employ those either did not sit for exam nor attended interview are those that got employed. You have to know a northern politician or pay heavily to get employed. It is like is a vow that the Niger Deltans are not to be employed, I read some northern boys complaining of same DPR. If one person can submit 30 names for employment. If only the poor youth will stop killing themselves for these rich and politicians life will be better because they will then depend on their own children to carry stick and guns to fight for them, but, no, 5000n and ogogoro they kill themselves for who will not look at them the next day. Yet, Keyamo will say the president does not know what is happening in his government. So sad and shameful. 2 Likes |
