According to a Daily Trust reports, the fuel situations in
Abeokuta, Ogun State capital worsened on Tuesday as long queues surfaced
in the metropolis.
Daily Trust which monitored the situation reports that few of the
stations with product to sell recorded long queues along the Obantoko
axis, on the old Abeokuta Ibadan road and Abeokuta/Lagos road, around
Ita oshin area.
Also, the Sokenu road, Lafenwa recorded similar long queues, with
virtually all filling stations along the road closing their stations.
The development has resulted in commuters getting stranded at bus
stops, while the roads are partially empty. Early traders and public
servants heading to their various places of trade and offices were seen
scrambling for few commercial vehicles.
Some of officials of the stations claimed that there was no stock
and there is nothing they can do while others with stock say they only
got fuel late in night.
"This is why you see the long queues here. The motorists wil be calling themselves to come to the station," an official at Lafenwa filling station told Daily Trust.
