The Federal Government has ordered the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, and the GMD of NNPC, Dr Maikanti Baru, to ensure that the fuel scarcity currently being witnessed across the country does not extend beyond this weekend.
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, made the government’s position known while answering questions from State House correspondents at the end of the meeting.
The directive was given to the minister on Wednesday during the weekly meeting of the Federal Executive Council presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
