Most filling stations in Abuja are keeping to Federal Government's directive to sell petrol at N86 per liter for NNPC retail outlets and N86.50 for other marketers.
News Agency of Nigeria, NAN reports that all the fuel stations in the city have sufficient stocks underground as well as loaded trucks awaiting discharge.
As at January 1, 2016, the long queues witnessed at petrol stations across the city had completely disappeared.
Mr Farouk Ahmed, the Executive Secretary, Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency PPPRA, had at a news conference on Tuesday in Abuja,
directed all NNPC retail stations to sell petrol at N86 per litre as from Jan. 1, while independent petrol marketers were instructed to sell at N86.50k a litre.
