After commenting on the lingering fuel scarcity that has affected so many Nigeria's few days ago that fuel scarcity across the Country will continue till may, and the downright criticism that appeared to have followed his comments, Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu has retracted his statement, making a reverse on Tuesday, as he said the long queues in the country’s petrol stations would disappear on Monday, April 7, 2016.
Kachikwu who is also the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) disclosed this when he appeared before the Senate committee on Petroleum (Downstream) over the fuel scarcity ravaging the country.
The Minister said: “By 6th or 7th April, the long queues in filing stations would disappear.” He apologized to Nigerians over his statement that the biting fuel scarcity will linger till May.
