We should all know that the queues at fuel stations across the country would ease off soon appeared in the horizon yesterday with the commencement of daily production of 3.2 million litres of petrol by the Kaduna Refining and Petrochemical Company (KRPC).
A statement by the NNPC confirmed that the plant, which commenced production over the weekend with an initial PMS yield of about 1.5 million litres, has ramped up its daily yield to 3.2 million litres.
“The injection of this volume into the system will significantly impact ongoing special intervention efforts designed to bring relief to motorists across the country,” the corporation stated.
Meanwhile, less than 48 hours after the minister of state for petroleum resources, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, ordered staff of the NNPC to intervene in the monitoring of fuel distribution and retail system at filling stations across the country, the initiative has started yielding positive results in Abuja and environs.
The situation at most filling stations visited in Abuja remains calm and orderly as the staff of the corporation helped to fast-track the process of dispensing fuel to motorists in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
